A now - - - -
The words to my new favorite song.
(This is off the Carolyn Mark album. I know Shanny wishes there were a few more mellow and serious songs, but I love the wild humour of the CD.)
Two Days Smug and Sober
Two days smug and sober
Two days not hung over
In a bar up on high
Kissed the smugness goodbye
With two bourbon decays and a wine.
Lower your standards and
I'll lower mine
You've got your outlets
and I've got my wine
Baby's got one big regret
(one big regret it's true)
I'm more in love with this cigarette
Than I'll ever be with you
Did you have to get so wasted
when I needed you the most?
Should have left you in that mansion
Should have left you on the coast
I know how much it kills you
when I tell you what to do
But read my lips you fucker
Chew that gum again we're through.
When the lights are right behind you
And they're flashing red and blue
Disco backseat bottles
and you don't know what to do
Concerned about your papers
and the contents of the trunk
Riding in style but hiding
so much more than being drunk.
