Oooohh whee, look at me, looking for some sympathy
|
It's the same old story, of a man and his search for glory
|
And he found it, underneath the bottle
|
|
Things are never good, things go from bad to weird
|
Hey gimme another Scotch with my beer
|
I'm sad to say, I feel the same today, as I always do
|
Gimme a drink to relax me
|
|
Oooohh whee, liquor set free, I can't do no work
|
The shake's inside me
|
Ah shucks, I got the lousiest luck, I'm sick of this
|
Underneath the bottle
|
|
Seven days make a week, on two of them I sleep
|
I can't remember what the heck I was doing
|
I got bruise on my leg from I can't remember when
|
I fell down some stairs
|
I was lyin' underneath the bottle
|
|
Oooohh whee, son of a B.
|
You get so down, you can't get any lower
|
So long world, you play too rough
|
And it's getting me all mixed up
|
I lost my pride and it's hiddin'
|
There, underneath the bottle
|
