I need a break as well The well that inebriates the guilt, one [Verse 2] Cold turkey's gettin' stale Tonight, I'm eating crow Fermented salmonella, poison oak, no There's a drought at the fountain of youth And I'm dehydrated My tongue is swellin' up, I say, one, two, three [Chorus] Troubled times, you know I cannot lie I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride [Bridge] There's a drought at the fountain of youth And I'm dehydratеd My tongue is swellin' up, I said One, two (Onе, two, three, four) [Chorus] Troubled times, you know I cannot lie I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride [Outro] (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride (Don't know where to go) Hitchin' a ride Say birthday boys, hey [Outro] Well, howdy neighbor Why, why is it you guys seem so fucking far away? Come on up here I'm sick of this shit, what the fuck? How you doing? What the hell happened to Tré?

I really like that song 'Basket Case'" But now, but now, no, check this out Now you come back, you're like, eighteen And you're completely fucked up And I have to say one thing, I take full responsibility for that
