lyrics

there he goes, down to the local bar
he's been working all day at the factory
feels depressed about everything he thinks of
no more fun in his life, thinks about ending it all
but he's got a remedy, it's drinking lots of whiskey
he'll feel much better after he's had about three

finally, he is drunk again
no more emptiness, but full of happiness
decides to leave the bar, after finishing his final beer
he is going home, to his god damn beautiful wife
she starts criticizing him, just like the day before
guess she doesn't realize the state he is in
but he'll make her understand

you say you don't want me drinking
you say you don't like me drunk
i guess it's something you will nag about
the rest of our lives
driving me crazy until i go out of my mind
are you terrified, of the superhuman I've become
listen baby it's just alcohol
and i need it in my life
it makes me feel better, about living this fucked up life

it's the same old story, it happens every day
in the weekends, he'll go absolutely insane
he'll go down to the club, and this is where he'll stay
drinking and dancing, doing some blow
but his wife will never change

you say you don't want me drinking
you say you don't like me drunk
i guess it's something you will nag about
the rest of our lives
driving me crazy until i go out of my mind
are you terrified, of the superhuman I've become
listen baby it's just alcohol
and i need it in my life
it makes me feel better, about living this fucked up life

and then the neighbors start complaining
that he is to loud at home
but they're just as miserabele as him
and they do not know
that he's got his reasons to drink
to not feel his pain at all
in stead of just sitting there,
complaining bout
things that'll never change
why wont anyone agree
instead they call the cops
asking them
if they'll arrest him please
and this is how he'll plead

I think you all should start drinking
I think you all should get drunk
I swear it's something you should think about
so listen to me
life will be a lot more fun you'll see
are you terrified of the superhuman I've become
listen people it's just alcohol
and we need it in our lives
it makes us feel better about living this fucked up life

about

Drunken Dolly Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Drunken Dolly started in 2004, inspired by bands
like “Dropkick Murphy's” and “Flogging Molly”.
through the years, the band managed to create
an cocky mix of punk and folk..
On their ep “Drunken Dolly and the
Drunken Man's Curse” you can hear the
raw sound of Rancid and NoFX, cheered up with a
hint of The Pogues and Dubliners. Add some Beach Boys style harmonic vocals and that's Drunken
Dolly.
