lyrics

I see you every morning standing on the corner as I drive away.
The smell of oak barrels and regrets wash across my old tired face.
And I know I’ll see you again soon in about 12 hours for the nights end.
Cuz you’re the best type of enemy. Your loss of control, you’re my best friend.

And we’ve got the world strung up by the balls.
And I don’t care if you stumble or you fall.
Cuz I’ve lot got convictions and you’ve got no class,
And all that you’re good for is a kick my ass.
I said man, take it easy on me.

And I wake up Sunday morning with your best intentions pounding through my head.
12, 16, or 22oz: it never mattered not when you were there.
These empty glasses represent a lack of caution, a need for fun.
Cuz I know you never thought you owed an explanation to anyone.

And we’ve got the world strung up by the balls .
And I don’t care if you stumble or you fall.
Cuz your one book of matches, I’m one powder keg.
When I take you out drinking you take out my legs.
I said man, take it easy on me.
