Odds The Last Drink
Carrying your ashes from bar to bar I'm in a mess & you're in a mason jar With you under my arm like a football I'm not ready to let go & that is all You were never big on conversation and that hasn't changed since you cremation And I feel most times like you do You know I feel most times like you do I wish that I was hardnosed Fight a forest fire with a garden hose And be brave enough right now to start on something new You were right there in the urn light as a feather If my hands weren't shaky I'd glue you back together This watering hole was our favourite stop So I'll take off the lid and pour a drink down the top, for you And I'll pull down on that magic lever That makes it stay the past forever And I feel most times like you do You know I feel most times like you do Someone's stabbed my voodoo doll Now it hurts each time that nature calls And you're lucky that nature's finished calling out to you You were down to your very last little belt loop But you were tougher than a pitbull in the paratroops And if you're afraid of getting hurt you suffer more ills Like the hypocondriac who dies choking on his pills So I should swallow really hard & deal with this pain Cause I'm as wasted as a neatfreak in a hurricane And I feel most times like you do You know I feel most times like you do I thought I was the one that died And this was heaven's weird amusement ride But you pinched me in the dream & I saw it wasn't true So I'm dumping your ashes on the flood And we'll laugh as people slip on you while coming in this door And I'll drink on what you said to stop my feet draggin' "no one dog's bark should ever stop the wagon"
