letra de "first you take the drink, then the drink takes the man" - '92 in the shade

first you take the drink, then the drink takes the man (whispered)
first you take the drink, then the drink takes the man (whispered)
first you take the drink, then the drink takes the man (whispered)
first you take the drink, then the drink takes the man (whispered)

verse:

he’s on a bender
he can’t remember
he can’t remember
what he did last night
woke up with someone
a perfect stranger
all he knows is that it’s not his wife
no karma sutra
or guantanomera
gone kamikaze
in the heat of the night
call him a doctor
bleeding mascara
his fists were broken
in a h-lluva fight

chorus:

first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
(hey man)
enter the dragon
he’s back in rehab
don’t tell his friends
that he f-cked up again
go through the motions
get with the program
sneak in another and he’s at it again
tequila sunrise
and blinding migraines
unhappy world and an unhappy girl
the rocking nightmares
and rolling blackouts
spill the wine and he’ll dig that pearl

chorus:
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)

bridge
and you keep reaching for that empty glass (that empty glass)
can’t seem to come to grips with your sordid past (ah-ah)
and something always seems to drag you down (drag you down)
he’s all alone again with his, his friends around (friends fizzle out)
the pressure starts to mount on debt and demands
well, first you take the drink
and the drink takes the man…
lead section

he’s on a bender (again?)
he can’t remember (oh, no way…)
he can’t remember (laughing)
if he’s unstuck in time
like billy pilgrim (laughing)
but down on cahuenga (laughing)
no malaguena
can’t get with the times
he’s treading water
and turning cartwheels
chasing chimeras
windmills of his mind (ah-ha-ha!)
he’s feeling seasick
from guilty pleasures
“show me the man
and i’ll find you the crime”

first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
first you take the drink
then the drink takes the man (yeah!)
(have you lost your marbles?)
back in the gutter (oh, not again)
pour him another
he’s not your brother
broke the ties that bind
he’s not your hero
he’s not your savior
he’s just a man that got sick and tired
he‘s gettin’ hammered
wasted and plastered
nothing else matters
to persons unknown
no karma sutra
or guantanomera
gone kamikaze
in the heat of the night
