Bartender!
Pour me one for the road.
You see, this night has turned into to much to bear.
It's like a fucking circus show.
My past is dancing with a lion, sweet and slow.
The answer isn't at the bottom of your beer.
It takes a man to stand up tall and leave the bottle back,
confronting all your fears.
Your past is dancing with a lion.
The future rests on how you're trying through the years.
Bartender,
I know you mean real well,
but I'm not feeling optimistic.
His collar's stained with lipstick,
so mix a magic spell.
A potion won't get you anywhere.
A tall drink won't make me feel so low.
Tomorrow's a new beginning.
Tonight has me with nowhere left to go.
