A Sober Conversation

I threw my Christmas tree out december 23rd because it doesn't matter

And put my fingers in my ears, who can think about time at a time like this?

I felt a hand upon my wrist and a voice said “Man, what’s really going on?”

I said “I used to pour margaritas, give it a twist, shake it around”

But now i’m having dreams where I’m stuck in the trees

And John Cleese is chasing me around

He said “let’s take a little drive, if you’ve got something to hide, now’s the time to show me”

And as we pulled into the pines, I cried and he said “let it all out”

I said “ok. Don’t tell anyone. I don’t care for David Bowie”

“There’s a time for joking” he said

“I’m really not” I replied

Some words are better left under your breathe

So under that the words are only mine, mine, mine

Boys like me feel it all

Always

(da da da da da da da da da da da)

He said “move over! Let me drive”

He punched the gas and my hair piece flew off

I pulled the handbrake, the car exploded

And we woke up on the wet, wet grass

“What we gonna do?” I said “I think we’re stranded!”

He smiled and said “Let’s dance”

I used to pour margaritas

Give it a twist shake it around

And now i’m in the woods feeling misunderstood

And everythings bringing me down, down, down

Boys like me feel it all

Always

(da da da da da da da da da da)

Now's the time, now’s the time, for a sober conversation

He said “I have to tell you something”

I said “Of course. What is it pal?”

He said “I’m just a metaphor, I’m just a song”

I said “I think we’ve all figured that out by now”

Boys like me feel it all (always)

Boys like me feel it all (always)

Boys like me feel it all

Always

(da da da da da da da da da da)

Give it a twist shake it around

And now i’m in the woods feeling misunderstood

And everythings bringing me down, down, down

Boys like me feel

it all

Always

(da da da da da da da da da da)

Now's the time, now’s the time, for a sober conversation

He said “I have to tell you something”

I said “Of course. What is it pal?”

He said “I’m just a metaphor, I’m just a song”

I said “I think we’ve all fig

ured that out by now”

Boys like me feel it all (always)
