Lyrics

Very much vodka and too much tequila Those are the ways I learned to deal Across against the light, and the sleet scalds my sight Stunned, I stay put and a billboard truck runs over my foot So things are really hopping And my unemployment's stopping And my kitty cat's copping, and I need to forget So I go to the window and smell a cigarette Now I'm in the clutches of my crutches I'm laid up, and I sip from my cup And I look outside And I see Christopher Hyde, who just got divorced And there's a restraining order enforced Going in his ex-wife's garage And I'm just drunk enough to open the window, yell out gruff: "Don't you key that brand-new Camry" And he gave me the cursor, "Damn," returning to the spot he was "Mind your own business you!" And I wag my finger, "You're not doing what you're supposed to do" And then he's coming toward me And I took a swig of my tequila 'cause it made me feel a little nervous As he started across against the light But he didn't look to his right as he didn't stay put And a billboard truck came and ran over his foot And the cops responding called out to me Said, "Is this your cat?" "Yeah, but sometimes it forgets Ah, wait a minute I gonna come out there and smell a couple of cigarettes" Don't you hurry, worry with me Don't you hurry, worry with me Don't you hurry, worry with me I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand If you tell me that again If you tell me that again If you tell me that again I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand If you tell me you've been broke If you tell me you've been broke If you tell me you've been broke I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand If you tell me that again If you tell me that again If you tell me that again I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand Don't you hurry, worry with me Don't you hurry, worry with me Don't you hurry, worry with me Don't you hurry, worry with me I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand I'm gonna pack up your eyes with sand You better close your eyes 'cause I'm about to pack 'em up with sand
