Lyrics The Lawrence Arms

The Lawrence Arms

Boatless Booze Cruise Part 1

Jackknifed my strife

Take it easy, sit outside

I just died a thousand times yesterday

Lay down. drown out

Drowning in these cries and shouts

Changing so fast that it stays the same

Encryption ensconces this cryptic cliché

If it's not stupid, it's more of the same

I'm too tired to care, we're too busy to think

Let's sit back and laugh and watch the ship sink

The hull and the bow and the smokestacks

Disappeared and we watched it go down

With a screaming Bronx cheer, thank you dear

I will sleep and get up and eat unaware

But don't forget to forget that you forgot me

When i show up at your door

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend

And fall asleep on your floor

Winter is coming, can you find your coat?

Let's go watch the water while the bodies still float

Slit my throat, it's more than a tad overdue

Slit my throat, I can't die in here 'til next June

I breathed, it was smoky

I cried and it steamed

I dreamed that I slept

And I actually dreamed

What it is a sickness

What it is is regret

And I might be dying

But I'm not dead yet

But don't forget to forget that you forgot me

When I show up at your door

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend

And fall asleep on your floor

Winter is coming, can you find your coat?

Let's go watch the water while the bodies still float

Slit my throat, it's more than a tad overdue

Slit my throat, I can't die in here 'til next June

I breathed, it was smoky

I cried and it steamed

I dreamed that I slept

And I actually dreamed

What it is a sickness

What it is is regret

And I might be dying

But I'm not dead yet

But don't forget to forget that you forgot me

When I show up at your door

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend

And fall asleep on your floor
