alcohol

I wake up almost every morning
the sun is always bright and I feel like it's scorning
me or at least something I had done
the night before when I was into some heavy drinking
well can you blame me? it's life and I've been thinking
it's too short, but yet it's too long
so I look around there's some girl lying next to me
she's passed out gone, and my vision must be hazy
cause she's not nearly as pretty as she was the night before

so I sneak out of the backroom window
make my down town then uh oh
well I forgot my wallet

al-al-al-al-alcohol
al-al-al-al-alcohol
if its so good why does it keep screwing up my life?
al-al-al-al-alcohol
al-al-al-al-alcohol
there seems to be nothing that can stop my strife

well I've been seeing things lately!
I think that black wolf is gonna carry me away!
but I keep on drinking!
well I know these bottles are gonna put me away!

so sneak attack, the tiger is back
he's not holding out, he's cutting no slack
it's a party, and it's gonna kill him
and he wakes up every single morning
and the sun always feels like it must be scorning
something that he has done

and I think, I just might
try to start a fight
