Lyrics

[Intro: The Flaming Lips] Yeah dah dah dah dah... Is there an ashtray in here? —Can we smoke in here? —Yeah, Eric said it was in his pockets The good times... (Yeah!) Who needs the good times? The good times are killing me [Modest Mouse] The good times are killing me Here we go [Verse 1] Got dirt, got air, got water And I know you can carry on Shrugged off shortsighted false excitement And oh what can I say? Have one, have twenty more "one mores" And oh it does not relent [Chorus] The good times are killing me [Verse 2] Kick butt, buzz-cut dickheads Who didn't like what I said The good times are killing me Jaws clenched tight, we talked all night Oh but what the hell did we say? The good times are killing me [Chorus] The good times are killing me The good times are killing me [Bridge] Fed up with all that LSD Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamines Late nights with warm, warm whiskey I guess the good times they were all just killing me [Verse 3] Got dirt, got air, got water And I know you can carry on The good times are killing me Enough hair of the dog to make myself an entire rug The good times are killing me Have one, have twenty more "one mores" And oh it does not relent The good times are killing me Shit-kicker, city slickers who all wanted me dead The good times are killing me Get sucked in and stuck in late nights With more folks that I don't know The good times are killing me [Chorus] The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me [Outro] The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me The good times are killing me
