She broke me so bad
I’m drinking beer for my brunch
And a bottle of whiskey
Is all I have for lunch
She broke me so bad
I fell apart and lost my job
I’m begging on the corner
I swindle and I rob
She broke me so bad
My anatomy stings
She got me seeing monsters
And hearing crazy things
She broke me so bad
My life is such a drag
Got a heart torn and tattered
Like a dirty old rag
I’m lost and I’m loaded
And I’m sick and I smell
I gave all my sweet lovin
To a demon from hell

Moonlight can caress a face
Who knew?
I never thought I’d meet someone
Like you
Rainbows are so radiant
Who knew?
After rainstorms birds chirp in
The dew
Sunshine is so glorious
Who knew?
I’m bathing in the light since I
Found you
Stars are so spectacular
Who knew?
A billion billion worlds where love
Might brew
The universe is beautiful
Who knew?
Since I discovered that you like
Me too

ReadyReady for the weekend
ReadyReady for my friends
ReadyReady to get crazy
Never thought the week would end
ReadyReady for the weekend
ReadyReady for some fun
ReadyReady for some freedom
And I really miss the sun
ReadyReady for the weekend
ReadyReady to explode
ReadyReady for some contact
Gonna find someone to hold
ReadyReady for the weekend
ReadyReady for the sky
ReadyReady for the outside
Before I suffocate and die

She’ll be nothing like I pictured her to be
—Neil Young, Lookin’ for a Love
Didn’t expect her beauty
From her bones to her skin
Didn’t expect the galaxy
To suddenly spin
Didn’t expect her smile
With its magical power
Didn’t expect her laugh
To resonate for hours
Didn’t expect to quiver
When she looks me in the face
Didn’t expect her poise
Didn’t expect her grace
Didn’t expect her countenance
To fill me up with joy
Didn’t expect to frolic
Like a goofy little boy
Didn’t expect to ever be
This silly and this sappy
Didn’t know there was such a thing
As permanent lovehappy

Never felt right
Never felt whole
Till I found a bottle
To parch my dusty soul
This dingy old bar
Is my urban oasis
Seventeen cocktails
Is my homeostasis
I do death and resurrection
On a regular basis
I came up in a stupid little
One-horse town
Booze is the friend
That never let me down
This dingy old bar
Is my urban oasis
Seventeen cocktails
Is my homeostasis
I do death and resurrection
On a regular basis
I’m anxious and ornery
Till I get a drink
Won’t quit until I wake up
In a pile of stink
This dingy old bar
Is my urban oasis
Seventeen cocktails
Is my homeostasis
I do death and resurrection
On a regular basis

Middle aged man in his underwear playing video games and drinking beer.
You don’t wanna work
You’ll never get a job
My mother was right
You’re a stupid lazy slob
I’m working three jobs
Just to get by
What am I doing
With such a lousy guy?
Disappoint me
Let me down
Incite my indignation
I will always
Keep you round
To focus my frustration
Playing your Nintendo
Like a stupid little kid
Jesus won’t you tell me
What I ever did
To deserve a drunkin fool
Spending everything I earn
I shoulda stayed in school
I guess I’ll never learn
Disappoint me
Let me down
Incite my indignation
I will always
Keep you round
To focus my frustration

If you drink your life to crud
Till you’re crawling in the mud
And puking pints of blood
If you gamble on the ponies
Till you’re sickly and you’re bony
And your kids eat macaroni
I’m sorry for your trauma
If you’re dusting up the drama
With a dozen baby mamas
It really ain’t my gain
If your life fills up with pain
Until you think you’ll go insane
Your problems
Ain’t my issue
Though I’ll support you
And I wish you
All the best
But I won’t waste
Precious time
Fixating on your
Your sins and crimes
I’ll just stay thankful
For the ways
My life is blessed

‘Cause everybody’s gotta have somebody to look down on
Prove they can be better than at any time they please
Someone doin’ somethin’ dirty, decent folks can frown on
You can’t find nobody else, then help yourself to me
—Kris Kristofferson, Jesus Was a Capricorn
Been living here for fourteen years
I’m stuck inside a rut
I’m surrounded by losers
And piles and piles of smut
My wife took all my money
And left me in this hut
I can’t believe I fell
For that evil stupid slut
My rent just got doubled
And my salary was cut
Everywhere I turn
Another door is shut
You need a place to put your angry
When it wells inside your gut
You need a place to put your angry
When life kicks you in the nuts
Follow me. I’ll help you find
A way out of this pinch
We’ll find someone to blame
Or we’ll find someone to lynch
by Richard W. Bray
