I should buy some new shoes Shoes don’t get me drunk And I can’t skate in Empty bitter jars I’m sure they’ll give me Blisters And your novelty t-shirt reads Why drink and drive When you can smoke and fly home Life’s a beach then you die Do or do not there is no Try And I would furnish you with a snotling pump wagon with your +3 on a d6 when breaking peoples.. Nurgle would have wanted this Coming at you with a chaotic kiss Were did you go? Were have you been? I heard you copt of with a good looking space marine Well these walls are super model thin And my wallet Is the same Yes you getting married practically grates And I still don’t find anything That Interesting About interest rates The next day You’re searching for serotonin I want some really strong ibuprofen You’ll cain it for days without a care Whilst ill feel like that kid off the mask with Cher And I can’t do it like I used to Im nearly 32 and like you; I should have a blummingfoot spa A bluming six pack A bluming clue And a great big ruddy bloody car… But I don’t The neighbors are shagging again And it’s ever so ever so loud And the fat ones t shirt reads It reads: Return to the pub if found Take me to your dealer please I’m not really balding It’s just a solar panel for a sex machine These stranded soulless souls Forever do they drift Upon reefs of real ale and public house shoals 3 crates of bar stool politics 7 sacks of times of old 10 barrels of bitter and loneliness And 1 heavy heart, stored in the hold On this one, barnacles on the starboard side That ones leaking rum She’s been moored, and waits the lord ‘Cos once you scuttled your done I feel like A million Zimbabwean Dollars Let me make two things clear We should have been nicer to each other And it smells like games workshop in here
