The Only One Drinking Tonight

Pass me the lampshade I’m drunk again
Blew my drug money on a quart of gin
Well I am a cultured man
With tastes discriminating
But I’ll settle for a tall glass of anything
Fell in love with love and
Death and darkness
If I’m a bad drunk well
It’s not for lack of practice
There is no
This no modern romance
Cause I’m going home in a fucking ambulance
Well am I the only one drinking tonight
The only one drinking tonight
Spring break gone broke and sprung
Now I’m the only one
Mirrored medicine cabinet door
Like the hatch of a submarine
Bottles inside like buttons and dials
And tiny back-lit screens
Bloody footprints on the bathroom floor
In a hotel close to the airport
Well am I the only one drinking tonight
The only one drinking tonight
Despair is an octopus
With it’s head in New Hampshire
And tentacles everywhere
Well am I the only one drinking tonight
The only one drinking tonight
Well am I the only one drinking tonight
The only one drinking tonight
