Beerly
My beer’s warm and my bed’s cold. My wife ran off and my car’s real old. My dog’s half dead but that’s OK, I can’t afford to feed him anyway. ~ The kids don’t talk to me anymore. I go to see mom and she locks the door. So I go to see dad in the old boneyard. I drink and I cry and I fall real hard. ~ I get so drunk I can’t even stand. I woke up once covered in sand. My toilet’s broke so I pee in the sink. There’s a shed outside, that’s where I think. ~ I got no lights to turn off or on. The landlord screams “why ain’t you gone!” But don’t weep for me cos I ain’t sad. I ain’t never had a beer’s that bad.
