Its meant to be kind of funny

lyrics

Wasted

I'm wasted tonight
I'm gonna get into a Helluva fight
Stand up at an AA meeting
I got up and gave the speaker a beating
I went to the old corner store
They said old Jim wasn't dealing no more
he’d ratted all his friends to the cops
I thought well, that explains a lot

Hell is where he’s gonna
save on his heating,
RatBoy Jim best consider retreating.
People just get on my nerves,
even these girls with their dangerous curves

I feel pain in my chest all the time,
I stole a bottle of communion wineI
religion is bullshit
now don't get me wrong
The pain quickly passed
The wine was strong.

Sailing on vodka and speed,
uppers downers my eyes start to bleed.
There is nothing I like around here
I stand alone on the corner drinking a beer
Is it thug life or night life I loathe.
Where lives intersect and juxtapose.
I get sick of never making the team
but I never tired of making a scene

saw a widow at the scene of the crime
she strangled her Man with the old clothes line
Goddamn Im wasted tonite
gonna get into a helluva fight.

Got to work it
You gots to own it
Kneel down and put
your name up on it
You Got to love it
You Got to feed it
If you want all your stupid pals to believe in it
yeh yeh yeh
I’m wasted tonight I’m gonna to get Into a Helluva fight......
