"Cheap Tequila" lyrics

"Cheap Tequila"
(originally by Rick Derringer)

Cheap perfume, sweet perfume
Lonely smell that fills the room
Roses in your low-rent tomb
A picture made of cheap perfume

Sad old rag, sad young hag
Clothes that hide the early sag
Sequins on a lame bag
The sparkle of a sad old rag

Drink up and be happy
You live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away
And flush yourself away

Worn out dream, washed up scheme
Blueprint for a death machine
Scared wrists on a movie queen
A picture of a worn out dream

Drink up and be happy
You live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away
Flush yourself away

Drink up and be happy
You live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away
Drink up and be happy
You live just for today
Drown in cheap tequila
And flush yourself away
Flush yourself away
Flush yourself away
