When I got sober
I finally discovered
You can't drink down pain
You can't drink down the past
It'll bite you in the ass
Drinking down pain
Will bite you in the ass
When I stayed sober
I had a life hangover
Full of headaches
And heartaches
That I didn't watch pass
The first time around
I had a life hangover
That bit me in the ass
Bills I didn't pay
Husband didn't stay
Even my dog ran away
I had a mangy puppy hound
Who didn't want me 'around
That mangy puppy hound
Bit me in the ass
I don't blame him
That dog knew class!
Moments of clarity
Are fairly
New to me
I never saw
What you see
Why is everybody
So angry?
Could it be?
They wanna kick me in the ass
No more Hail Mary pass
What the hell can I do
For you to see my point of view?
I never knew a beer or two
Could bite me in the ass
All the weight
Of all the years
That I tried not to remember
Is feeling pretty heavy now
Like and anvil on an ant
No super human power here
Just trying to steer clear of beer
Otherwise,
I'll have a life hangover
For the rest of my years
But if I like I'll drink a few
And forget about the past
And on my epitaph
It'll read
"This was a waste of grass......"
Even in death
Life bit me in the ass
