about

Tried something a little different with this one, inspired by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, along with lots of other old music haha.

lyrics

Hey Hey
Oh Way Oh

I gotta say baby
it's driving me crazy
You left me out here in the rain
the liquor store lady
is looking quite wavy
the homeless man's begging for change
I threw him a buck
and said "wish me some luck
'cause my lady she's whylin' at home"
He said "Boy don't you know,
it's not home you should go,
you're better off all on your own."
I told him "I'm faded."
And patiently waited
outside of the store for my cab
A smoke and a swig
from my bottle of gin
and the man disappeared just like that.
My cab never came
so I stood in the rain,
smoking my cigarette down.
It wouldn't stop pouring,
I said fuck the store and
I walked my drunk ass into town.

*And I
Can't remember
The last thing I said
(bom bom bom bom)
was it I love you?
Or I wish you were-
I Can't remember
The last thing I said
(bom bom bom bom)
Was it I love you?
Or I wish you were dead?

Hey Hey
Oh Way Oh

The town was deserted
but it was still early
I felt like I shouldn't be here
my bottle was done
but the night was still young
I need me a whiskey and beer
The pub was still open
I walked through the door
and to my surprise inside was packed
They said "Come and join us,
and order your poison!
just kick up your feet and relax!"
After some time
the sun started to shine
And I hailed a cab out of town
Driving down Main Street
I thought of my baby
And wondered if she had calmed down
I knocked on the front door
but nobody answered
so i let my self in the side
Much to my horror
on the kitchen floor oh
My baby she'd OD'd and died...

*And I
Can't remember
The last thing I said
(bom bom bom bom)
was it I love you?
Or I wish you were-
I Can't remember
The last thing I said
