When the telephone woke me this morning, I'm sorry was the first thing I said
|
From that point it get's a bit fuzzy, thinking with half a head
|
Putting the pieces together, it's shocking to flash on the past
|
'Cause when you are known as a rascal, you can bet you showed off your ass
|
|
Chorus:
|
I was so bad last night, I'll be good for the rest of my life
|
Now I'm telling you and this is the truth
|
I have finally seen the light
|
From now on I'm going to act right, I was so bad last night
|
|
The harder I try to remember, the quicker my brain starts to hurt
|
It really is funny, unwadding the money, that's been stuffed in my pants and shirt
|
But tryin' to make sense of phone numbers, scribbled on the backs of old cards
|
I guess we ought to be thankful, nobody knows who we are
|
|
Alternate Chorus:
|
I was so bad last night, I'll be good for the rest of my life
|
Now I'm telling you and this is the truth
|
I tore up the bar, lost a pretty nice car
|
It's a good bet I ticked off my wife
|
|
I never intended to do it, I dropped in for a drink or two
|
But all of the chicks were so foxy, I wanted to marry a few
|
The place was more crowded than usual, and everyone there was my friend
|
Franny and Snake and Bunky and Jake, and somehow the night never ends
|
|
Chorus

So Bad Last Night
