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]
