The Odds - The Last Drink lyrics

rate me

Carrying your ashes from bar to bar

I'm in a mess & you're in a Mason jar

With you under my arm like a football

I'm not ready to let go & that is all

you were never big on conversation and that hasn't changed since your cremation

And I feel most times like you do

You know I feel most times like you do

I wish that I was hardnosed

Fight a forest fire with a garden hose

And be brave enough right now to start on something new

You were right there in the urn light as a feather

If my hands weren't shaky I'd glue you back together

This watering hole was our favourite stop

So I'll take off the lid and pour a drink down the top, for you

And I'll pull down on that magic lever

That makes it stay the past forever

And I feel most times like you do

You know I feel most times like you do

Someone's stabbed my voodoo doll

Now it hurts each time that nature calls

And you're lucky that nature's finished calling out to you

You were down to your very last little belt loop

But you were tougher than a pitbull in the paratroops

And if you're afraid of getting hurt you suffer more ills

Like the hypochondriac who dies choking on his pills

So I should swallow really hard & deal with this pain

Cause I'm as wasted as a neatfreak in a hurricane

And I feel most times like you do

You know I feel most times like you do

I thought I was the one that died

And this was heaven's weird amusement ride

But you pinched me in the dream & I saw it wasn't true

So I'm dumping your ashes on the floor

And we'll laugh as people slip on you while coming in this door

And I'll drink on what you said to stop my feet draggin'

"No one dog's bark should ever stop the wagon
