My alarm's the Hounds of Hades
Tearing at my flesh and someday
Maybe I won't get up.
I don't seem to remember anything,
But I'm old and stupid and I'm drinking
Too much, too much.
And yes, she knows and he knows
And they know and you know
That I'm broke.
Come on, relax the tourniquet
And let your heart just bleed away
A hacksaw to your ball and chain,
So don't be shy, now don't delay
It's one long journey to the grave
And there is no one else to blame
It's all about to change, so let it go.
I'm on Alka Seltzer everyday
And I'm lying when I say I'm okay
Cause I'm not.
So come out, come out, wherever you are
Did you really think we'd get that far?
You wanna secure that? Shhhh....
And yes, she knows and he knows
And they know and you know
That I'm broke.
Come on, relax the tourniquet
And let your heart just bleed away
A hacksaw to your ball and chain,
So don't be shy, now don't delay
It's one long journey to the grave
And there is no one else to blame
It's all about to change, so let it go.
