  			Alcohol on my hands I got plans
to ditch myself and get outside 
dancing woman throwing plates
decapitating their laughing dates
swirling chickens caught in flight
out of focus much too bright
coming down shiny teeth
game show suckers trying to bleed
but I got a drug and I got the bug
and I got something better than love

How you like me now 
pretty good
going on
feeling strong

I quit my job blowing leaves 
telephone bills up my sleeves
choking like a one man dustball
freedom rock slimeball
talking in code, i went down
lit up the shack
grab me a beer out of the sack
everybodys been over twice
painting the walls throwing some dice
leaping up into the air getting juiced up beyond belief

and they were singing like this

D               G               D
why go throwing Frisbees at the sun
       F        G       D
put my soul between the bun
D        G               D
now I wandering now I'm drunk
         F        G       D
now I'm running like a flaming pig

D        G               D
         F        G       D
(oh yeah) 

D           G           D
  scraping off the attitude
     F        G       D
old man eating all my food
D         G            D
don't be kind don't be rude
                 F               G       D
just shake your boots and let it all get loose

oh yeah 
my goodness fluffy clouds
jumping rainbows

fluffy clouds
I'm sad 
jumping rainbows
A soft and snuggly place
repeat
