letra de the drink they drained as i drove away - tim rogers & the twin set

don’t you be too scared of being lonesome, you know
think of all the places you can go
you can leave whenever you want…

don’t you be too scared of being lonesome, you know
think of all the places you can go
and you can leave whenever you want

one, two, one!

the vee-dub flubbed twenty-three k’s from anywhere in v-i-c
i kicked a wheel, and tried to forge a deal
with the gods of the racv
because i’m no good on the tools
so i played the bеnevolent fool
to get a tow into town, and turn this trip around

you wеre otherwise a goer, i thought
i knew a pub and a place to stay
to crunch the bucks and cents, find a way to stretch
why’d i stolen what i saved?
but to seymour, i was dragged
as doleful as a lamb, baa!
my thirst made more than sense
and this is any other context
so beer’s my choice just to soothe my voice
like the weight of my lids
but to the right of my side, in singlets and thongs
sat a sporting team of kids
a-drinkin’ jugs of a sugary mix
vodka-lemonade and luminous sh-t
the sun hit the jug, and then boom!
a prismic rainbow like dark side of the moon!
i asked the barkeep
“excuse me, ma’am, what are they calling that concoction today?”
she said, “it’s called a fruit tingle
when training is over
they guzzle it until they spray.”
well that bemused me to my bones
and the thought, it wouldn’t leave me alone
do they choose that booze ’cause they think it’ll keep their weight down?

come on kids
don’t be too scared of bein’ lonesome, you know
think of all the places you can go
and you can leave whenever you want
but don’t be scared of making mistakes
there’s still many places to call – hey! this’ll do!
you lay your hat down where there’s room
oh, play a bit
hearts to hearts!

pretty good!
my room was all the price alluded to
a thin layer of dust
on every surface, but hey, what did i care?
i couldn’t even conjure a cuss
now, as the teenagers spewed their guts
of fruit tingles and such
i was hatching a plan to the t.v. with the sound down

yeah, i sit at my little red desk where i collate my thoughts
whether in strides, whether in shorts
and write down every little curiosity
like fruit tingles and football teams
re-string the ol’ wire and wood
i make it sound sweet just where it should
i call the twin set – let’s hit the road
just keep our weight down
let’s get skinny, kids!

don’t be too scared of bein’ lonesome, you know
think of all the places you can go
and you can leave whenever you want
don’t be scared of making mistakes
there’s so many places to call – hey! this’ll do!
you lay your hat down where there’s room
’cause wherever i lay my hat
that’ll do, hoo!
wherever i lay my hat
that’ll do…
wherever i lay my hat
that’ll do…
wherever i lay my hat
that’ll do…
that’ll do
hang on
so it’s goodnight from us
and it’s goodnight from
remember, if you’re staying in a hotel room tonight
and you think, “i’m gonna wreck the hotel room
’cause that’s rock n’ roll.”
it’s not rock n’ roll, you’re being a d-ckhead
you’re making someone’s life infinitely harder the next morning
so, leave that room clean
we’ll see you out there
