"Whiskey And Pills" lyrics

"Whiskey And Pills"

Go!

The sun, you know, it rots my brain
The way I walk is with a cane
The wind, it blows, it takes me in
And times it turns, it makes me thin, yeah

My life is going down the drain
My wife, you know, she went insane
My kids are messed up in the brain
But when I'm high, I feel no shame

When my mind won't hold still
When I feel the sickening chills
When I feel I've had my fill
And every voice I hear is shrill
I calm myself with whiskey and pills
I calm myself with whiskey and pills

The people I know
Their number's changed
Their view of me is rearranged
The way I see they're really strange
I've got no reason to play their game, yeah

They look at me with eyes a stare
I look at them, but I don't care
I tell them all, what's fair is fair
And here and there and everywhere

When my mind won't hold still
When I feel the sickly chills
When I feel I've had my fill
And every voice I hear is shrill
I call upon my friends
Whiskey and pills
I call upon my friends
Whiskey and pills
Ooh, ooh, whiskey and pills

When you see me
I'm a-roaming around
My face hits the pavement
Yes, I'm on the ground
Turn me around, see if I'm okay
Check out this smile
That's on my face

Yeah yeah!
Ow!
Yeah yeah!

I never thought I was gonna die
Until I stared into God's eyes
He said to me, "Well, come on, son
Better shape up, boy, your days are done."
Ow! Wow!

Up my mind I got the chills (Brr!)
Even though he talked with skill
Of the voice I heard the shrill
It was a sound I had to kill
I turned around and grabbed
The whiskey and pills

Can't say goodbye to
Whiskey and pills
Ow, I call upon my friends
Whiskey and pills

I calm myself with
Whiskey and pills
Whiskey and pills
Ooh, pills, yeah
Whiskey and pills, yeah
Whiskey and pills, yeah
Whiskey and pills, yeah
Whiskey and pills, yeah
Whiskey and pills
Ow!
