Lyrics

I was sittin' in a chair at the H and R Block Some bean countin' pencil pusher runnin' up the clock Said, "I've tallied up your numbers through the end of the year Son you spent a small fortune on liquor and beer" I said, "It's cheaper than a shrink" You don't have to think You just pour and drink It's sixteen-fifty for a bottle of Jack No pouring out your heart to some high dollar quack Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done And gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun And it's cheaper than a shrink You don't have to think You just pour and drink It's cheaper than a shrink Now me and her had this little problem between us Tryin' to bridge the gap between Mars and Venus She said, "Honey, I think we need to see a marital counselor" I said, "All we need to do is slam a case of twelve ouncers" 'Cause it's cheaper than a shrink You don't have to think You just pour and drink 'Bout eighteen bucks I'll getcha four six-packs No pourin' out your heart to some high dollar quack Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done Gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun And it's cheaper than a shrink You don't have to think You just pour and drink And it's cheaper than a shrink If the liquor prices soar as high as gasoline Well, I'd have quit drinkin' back when I was nineteen It's the oldest most proven form of therapy The best thing about it, far as I can see Is that it's cheaper than a shrink You don't have to think You just pour and drink And it's cheaper than a shrink Oh, you just pour and drink And it's a whole lot cheaper than Some big town clock hound Drag you down shrink
