I thank God for relentless thirst |
|
Corn liquor can't speak unless you drink it first |
|
I toasted him before the set |
|
Shouldn't fly a plane drunk on anisette |
|
He counseled through the bourbon haze |
|
Never use a cruelty when a joke will do in its place |
|
I always drink before the race |
|
It's a savage world not afraid to show a savage face |
|
In a world of swarming flies |
|
Not an angel or an athlete could live so high |
|
To clip the pylon's edge |
|
It's a rookie mistake, it'll be on the rookie's head |
|
The crowd's a rapacious beast |
|
You can feel its hunger before every feast |
|
Thanks for advice my sodden friend |
|
I'll look deep inside to see if I belong with the men |
|
Not one of you |
|
A tarnished angel |
|
On the night I said goodbye |
|
It was for effect |
|
I dried my eyes |
