lyrics

I close up shop, I’m headed home
Meanwhile, Armageddon on my smart phone
Telling me to come out to this bar
I got stuff to do but it’s not to far
I say what the hell and I bite the bullet
Journeys playing, it’s infested with mullets
I go out back with a guy named jack
We smoke some noise from a joint in his pack
My head turns hazy, I can’t drive home
Make a few calls and I throw out my bone
It’s bad when you think too hard
And your Uber asks you “where you at?”

I live in the smack-dab center of a horseradish land
A cliche I don’t understand is the tucked in shirts with the khaki pants
So run me over with your new Cadillac
I’m layin’ here, frying in the cul-de-sac
At 100 degrees (Kelvin Clein)
I’m like a turkey in the oven.

Down in Kentucky there’s a guy named Meatball
Kentucky's weird, a different kind of people
We go hungry to a waffle house
A crust-punk cook just running his mouth
He agitates the Ball so he throws his cup
The cook now ready to start things up
He’s spittin' and struttin’
Like a rooster with an alibi
Meanwhile, I’m sitting there pacified
Meat gives him the old Don Jon check mate
Lay him cold on the black slate

Throwin’ down quarters and gamblin’ with Jesus
Prayin’ to St. Michael that I hit the big six
A girl then asks me if I wanna split the pot
I said no thanks, I smoked it in the parking lot
She swiftly leads me out
I guess I don't live with the high-brows and the pig snouts
I don't fit in at all
I guess I am an ass hole.

Living in the suburbs
Driving down the cognac.
