Testo Sober Song - Slobberbone
Testo della canzone Sober Song (Slobberbone), tratta dall'album Crow Pot Pie
Yeah, I've been drinking, I bet you couldn't tell
The way I'm stinking, as if you couldn't smell
But what I'm thinking, you just can't ever tell
That's the way that I want things to stay
And now I'm sinking, guess once again I fell
My head is shrinking, but once it used to swell
Your friends are winking, but they can all go straight to hell
I'm tired of them and their condescending grin
You say I'll never find answers to what's on my mind
Waiting in the bottom of some glass
And I must agree with you, the words they all ring true
The answers and the liquor make it last
That's all I'm trying to do is make it last
Last night I saw you with some boy from town
And I didn't want to, so I drank a few more rounds
And I tried to call you, but he said you weren't around
I know that he lied, but you can't say I didn't try
So I kept boozing until the night wore thin
While you kept schmoozing with all kinds of men
I guess I'm losing that precious upper hand
But that's okay, I don't need it much these days
See there's this friend of mine, he's always by my side
He gives me a place to go when things get bleak
He's always there for me, wipes my eyes when I can't see
Gives me strength when I'm feeling weak
He makes me numb and I feel like I'm free
You say I'll never find answers to what's on my mind
Waiting in the bottom of some glass
And I must agree with you, the words they all ring true
The answers and the liquor make it last
That's all I'm trying to do is make it last
You say he's good to you, but I do things he'd never do
There's a certain kind of love you can't dispute
I'll bum your smokes, I'll buy your beer
I'll pick you up off the back porch, dear
Hold your hair when you have to puke
That's why I'm trying to tell you
That I've been drinking, I bet you couldn't tell
The way I'm stinking, as if you couldn't smell
But what I'm thinking, you just can't ever tell
That's the way that I want things to stay
And now I'm sinking, guess once again I fell
My head is shrinking, but once it used to swell
Your friends are winking, but they can all go straight to hell
They're thinking I should just move on, give up the wine and beer
But drinking ain't the only reason that I love you, dear
So why should I give up the only thing I'd like to do?
There's just no getting sober over you
No getting sober over you
There ain't no getting sober over you
I ain't getting sober over you
