You Told The Drunks I Knew Karate
by:
Zoey Van Goey
I am drunk and on a ladder,
not the smartest way to start my night
you said I'd conquer my vertigo
that was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie
and when we got up to the roof
you opened a little flosk of gin
like idiots we both fell asleep there
until the sun came up again
I do the dumbest things for you
why do I do the dumbest things for you?
I almost broke my cellar bone
I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd
ever known
we both went out to the party
down along great western road
you told the drunks I knew karate
that was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie
they chased uy through the city centre,
they chased us out to the east end
we had to hide behind the supermarket
until the sun came up again
I do the dumbest things for you
why do I do the dumbest things for you?
I would be safer on me own
I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd
ever known
we just missed the last bus home
so we walked ot fueled (?) by adrenaline
when I said that I could do it all again
that was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie
your plans to make it big and conquer
would put napoleon to shame
I'm in a coma on a sofa
