Drugs and Kittens

[Live audience and Dicky Barrett]
*applause*
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Simmer down, simmer down, simmer down
Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Mighty Mighty
I know all you people. Yo, Brian hurt himself
He needs Geoff to come to the side of the stage
Brian Kagen hurt himself
'Cause I know, pass this around

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Don't mind when it happens
No problem when I am sayin' it
But when I lose my mind, kick my behind
Because I hate when my mind keeps replayin' it
I'm not braggin' and I'm not proud
I hang around a drunken crowd
We are happy, that I can say
And until we're not, I kid you not
We're gonna stay that way, hey

[Chorus]
My life would start to settle down
(Johnny)
Then you came along, you turned it upside down
(Vegas)
Drunks and children, they always tell the truth
(Johnny)
But now I'm sober and I'm older, and I held on to
My youth

[Verse 2]
Drinkin' the other day
I said I loved you, you turned away
Maybe the drinkin', it made me cry
But I'm a happy, very happy, very happy guy
Drunks and children they tell the truth
That's just what I am, I'm drunken youth
And when I am drinkin', I don't know why
But I'm a happy, very happy, very happy guy

[Bridge]
Sometimes when I'm playin'
I never watch what I'm sayin'
Sometimes I lose my head
I lose my head and things get said I never should have said
Sometimes I get housed
Housed, soused and shoot off my mouth
And sometimes I can't get out
And I don't know what I'm talkin' about
Whoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa-hoa
I don't know what I'm talkin' about
Whoa

[Outro]
You know, I've made mistakes
I've had my ups and downs, my ins and outs
My share of bad breaks
But when it's all been said and done
I raise my beer and I swear, "God, it's been fun!"

Good God, oh my God, good God, good God
Good God, good God, God, it's been fun!
Work it
Ugh

I'll Drink to That [2:57]

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Standing stiff on a cliff and I'm not gonna leap
Checked out the water, but it's much too deep
No going back, there's no turning around
So I'll stay here and wait, God, I hope that I'm found

[Verse 2]
My, my, my, my, my, my, my thoughts were in knots, but I couldn't get to sleep
Went up to the attic to see what to keep
Threw out the useless and now it's bone dry
But I still couldn't die and couldn't figure out why

[Pre-Chorus 1]
No way, no how
No what, what now?

[Chorus]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that

[Verse 3]
The attic was empty, but my eyes were shut
Had to do somethin', but I didn't know what
Darkness was nice, but it wasn't enough
Clock wasn't stoppin' so I had to get tough

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Get tough, get up
Get out, get ugly!

[Chorus]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, I'll drink to that

[Verse 4]
Got up, got out, and found out it was rainin'
The car lived then died, but I wasn't complainin'
Hell bent for action and it had to be
I walked then I ran, hopin' somethin' was somewhere
Before long, it didn't take long
This place came along and I ended up here
Right here

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
Place is packed, needed that
And I'll drink to that
Thank you very much, good night

*applause*

A little bit louder, folks
Yo, get off the stage. Get off the stage
What? Boy? What's up, boy?
What's up? Boy? Maybe, maybe, I don't know
