lyrics

Those problems all stacked
Gonna break your back
Such a heavy load
Whiskey breakfast down some Tuesday morning slum road
Throw your problems out on the table
Gimme two cents, give you two cents back
Heart attack
I’d rather be in an ambulance right now

This job is killing me
My woman left me and I cant blame her
What I need right now is a 100% enabler
Tough break, man
Empty bottle
Move it on down to the lakeside bar
This wont be pretty
But that’s cool
That’s what you are

You know that when it all comes down on me
And its hard enough just breathing
Gotta refuse, reject, resist
Knock em to their knees
Because it’s a hard road to travel
It’s a tough pill to swallow
When you’re sitting there, thinking the dog’s your only friend
How do I get so filled with rage
Inside, still feel so hollow
Unknown

Better give em hell, Johnny
Give em hell

Sometimes I wanna escape back west
Under those palm trees
Give me shelter
I see it clear
Give me everything that I’m lacking here
Better get your head checked, Johnny
Life’s a party
I’m being anything but insincere
When I say God bless this land of milk and honey
And cheese and beer

You know that when it all comes down on me
And it's hard enough just breathing
Gotta refuse, reject, resist
Knock em to their knees
Because it’s a hard road to travel
It’s a tough pill to swallow
When you’re sitting there, thinking the dog’s your only friend
How do I get so filled with rage
Inside, still feel so hollow
Unknown

Better give em hell, Johnny
Give em hell

Feel that pressure
Pushing down real slow
Well you got no reason
And you outta know

Fate
Bad philosophy
Change
That’s bullshit too
Go on, embrace that villain in you

This ain't the end, you know
It’s just the start
Won’t be too long before
There’s another Beer City broken heart

You know that when it all comes down on me
And its hard enough just breathing
Gotta refuse, reject, resist
Knock em to their knees
Because it’s a hard road to travel
It’s a tough pill to swallow
When you’re sitting there, thinking the dog’s your only friend
How do I get so filled with rage
Inside, still feel so hollow
Unknown
