Cold Duck Complex - Booze & Tap Water lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Never good at leaving well enough alone Burning bridges, slamming doors, hanging up the phone Grown a** man, with no real plans Closed fist in the sky, with my head in the sand And you're god damn right I resent the handshakes and the smiles But I guess that I can fake it for a while Like "Hi, how you doin', yeah it's been a long time" "Same old, same old, man I'm doin' fine" But it only feels right when I f** a fight You could either use that knife or you could let me spend a night Right, naw I'll settle for a laugh and a drink We can save the world and leave the broken gla** in the sink A toast to the hopeful Here's to the cheerful As for the politicians, man I've had an earful Anything you can do I can make jaded Endlessly an*lyzed and over-complicated Sittin' in the middle of my grey area rug Humble and hard rocks and embarra**ing thugs Don't worry about happiness I gotta relax I'm just trying to be myself but motherf**er who's that? Who's that? Who's that? (Nah---Yeah) [Chorus] Dear Ma, I burned all my dreams to the filter I'm a self-made martyr with a taste for pain Ain't nothin' new but booze & tap water And the way she moves has got me singing again like (The way she moves, got me singing again, Aww) [Verse 2] It's the return of the repressed Livin' attached to d**h, just obsessed Trying to learn to love my enemies best Let this cold breath off of my chest I'm just flesh nothing more nothing less Than an educated guess Yes, yes, y'all, Platy-Complex y'all Tryin' to get my mind up out the mess hall The way that dress falls on her shoulders won't leave me alone We make love till the speakers are blown My very own dream sequence, complete with all the camera tricks Another professional rapper makin' amateur chips Fantastic, sorry if I sound sarcastic Got a boatload addiction to ironic detachment These a**-kicking machines put a dick in a dream Ask me why I'm laughin', cause if I didn't I'd scream Seems simple and that's how she taught it to me But this life ain't quite what I thought it would be I see people, so full of fear and disease And they all take themselves so seriously (So seriously, so seriously) Ma, it all seems silly to me [Chorus] [Bridge] My baby bends before she breaks My baby lends before she takes Makes love not money Likes her eggs runny And that's alright with me My downstairs neighbor's got a gla** ceiling My lover has scars that are past healing And I'm a sad sack dealin' with half-masked feelings And that's alright with me (That's alright with me, that's alright with me) (That's alright, that's alright, that's alright) [Chorus] [Outro]
