[Verse 1]
|
Blue collar Eddie and his better half Deloris
|
Used to be mantle pieces down at the black forest
|
And I don't know if that bar still exists
|
But when did so did they a couple bleeding heart kids
|
Everything volatile, every night rocker style
|
Hop a stool be discreet and just watch a while
|
But Do your best to keep the level observational
|
Drama is attractive so push it when it takes a pull
|
And each nights are random, when you've paid a ransom
|
for the right Sing along with them drinkin' anthems
|
And these fools paid so many dues that Everybody stops to salute
|
Well One night after another fight,
|
a couple from an opposite table offered an invite
|
Deloris didn't want to join 'em wasn't feelin' social
|
But Eddie was so aggravated that he had to poke holes
|
He walked over sat in the dialogue
|
And Called at Deloris like some kind of dog (hey hey hey hey girl come here)
|
She can't believe it she's done she's had it
|
But she doesn't want to make another scene in this establishment
|
She got up and mozied over, and put her arm up around Eddie's shoulder
|
Nobody's sober, the song is the same
|
Sometimes you stick out your chin to catch the rain
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You can be winner you can be a loser
|
Gotta wake up when you here the rooster
|
Sometimes its just too simple to live your life wrong
|
Gotta do right for you when the time come
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
The clock keeps drinkin, they keep tickin
|
There's two more people who get to play positions
|
Samantha and chuck not a couple just roommates
|
Out having too many shots on a Tuesday
|
Who knew they'd be tools for the duo
|
Put a little bit of fire on the fuel
|
It's a kinda blue intentions aint cruel
|
But everybody's so ready to bend up the rules
|
Now there's chuck staring at Deloris,
|
Eddie is distracted by Samantha So he doesn't notice
|
And everybody's too fucked up
|
To even assess the mess, Much less care enough
|
More whiskey, A pitcher of premium,
|
Andy's gettin' tipsy he didn't see it comin'
|
On his way back from a visit with that urinal,
|
Tryin' to straitin' out his thoughts and the vertigo
|
Weaves through stops when he seen em picture perfect
|
It looked just like freedom
|
Deloris on chucks lap kissin' em hard,
|
Eddie dipped into the winter, left them all at the bar
|
Sometimes you gotta follow whats felt inside,
|
Between the power struggles and selfish pride
|
No one is allowed to cry unfair
|
Cuz now they both get to drink alone somewhere
|
|
[Chorus]
|
You can be winner you can be a loser
|
Gotta wake up when you here the rooster
|
Sometimes its just too simple to live your life wrong
|
Gotta do right for you when the time come
|
