Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There were eighty-seven Advil in the bottle, now there's thirty left
I ate forty-seven, so what happened to the other ten?
Why do you suspiciously change the subject
And break my concentration
As I dump the bottle out and I count the Advil up again
[Verse 2]
Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thought
Have some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself
And I'm not done and I won't be till my head falls off
[Verse 3]
Feeling every pocket of my shirt, pants, and overcoat
And I'm feeling them again, but I don't know where I put my notes
Clearing my throat and gripping the lectern
And smiling, face my audience, clearing his throat
And smiling with his hands on the bathroom sink
[Verse 4]
And when I lean my head against the frosted shower stall
I see stuff through the glass that I don't recognize at all
And I'm not done and I won't be till my head falls off
Though it may not be a long way off
[Verse 5]
I'm not done talking yet
I'm not done talking
[Verse 6]
And when I lean my head against the frosted shower stall
I see a broken figure silhouetted on the wall
And I'm not done and I won't be till my head falls off
Though it may not be a long way off
I won't be done until my head falls off
