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

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
‘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
