In the Valley of Two-Dollar Pints of Red Hook IPA (Lyric) by <~>

You may have measured twice, but one cut was quick enough to core me You talked to her all night and claimed you didn't ignore me And when I walked away in even-placed steps what made you think that I wanted any less Than I did when I came in here, with hope still in place? Before I saw you putting that smile on her face The one where the corners suggested something more; the look that she gave you I could not ignore So if I was angry or overreacted, if my eyes flashed and my goodwill retracted When I asked what was up, when I called you aside, and you said that we had no date tonight Blame it on green Blame it on spite Blame it on too many Jack Daniels' tonight Blame it on me Blame it on you Never mind. Fuck it. I'll find someone new. [You just have no listening for my confrontational 2 pint courage, carpenter]

The last stanza - very wise!
