  • You walk in with another headache
    I can tell by the lines in your face
    you seem to think if you just remove the problem
    the answers are what will come next
    Another shot of whiskey
    and maybe I'll be ready
    for what's still crowded in your head
    Never thinking that all the good times
    are what walked in with the bad
    I don't know why we compromise ourselves
    I thought it was a common understanding
    with all I've tried to help with
    Tell me, do I end up empty handed?
    Another couple of beers while I'm safe here at the bar
    and maybe I'll get me some rest
    Don't know why all the good times have to turn-up with the bad
    It's like a sword of hate
    you brandish it so proud
    I wonder if you're taught what you feel
    or is it the way you got it cold dead in your eye?
    It would be good if you could just
    leave me well enough alone
    The crime of fate is what I have to follow through
    if I'm going to get past you
    Another shot of whiskey
    and that's about the only
    way I can listen anymore
    Go ahead and drown me of everything
    At least I still got my place at the bar
    It's like a sword of hate
    you brandish it so proud
    I wonder if you're taught what you feel
    or is it the way you got it cold dead in your eye?
    You walk in with another headache
    I can tell by the lines in your face
    you seem to think if you just remove the problem
    the answers are what will come next
    Another shot of whiskey
    and that's about the only
    way I can listen anymore
    Never seen that all the good times
    are what walked in with the bad Publisher: FISHHEADHOTDOG BURRITO MUSIC
