about

Drinking (responsibly) with friends & strangers for a night on the town.

lyrics

"I Before E Except In Budweiser"

Living in a world as second class citizens
Looking up to them wishing we weren't so hideous
Yeah, we drink and sink all of our sorrows in a bottle, lost at sea
With all our hopes and dreams
(So tell me, what it takes to be a man)

We are the kids in a world that is broken
We've got to change what we have that's ourselves

Gathering of bro's with a 9 drink minimum
Happiness flows now we all try and hit it up
Loss of conformity, intelligence and family
Drink it all down with a cheer (hip hooray)

Beers falling, peers falling, we all fall down
And I've seen this all before and I know what it feels like
So do you (so do you), now we do it all again

We are the kids in a world that is broken
We've got to change what we have that's ourselves

There's money in our pockets, but it won't last long
Cause you know we're gonna drink to the break of dawn
There's money in our pockets, but it won't last long
Cause you know we're getting fucked up
Fucked up? (Fucked up!)

1, 2, 3, 4 pick up your best friend off the floor
5, 6, 7, 8 tell your girl she'll have to wait
1, 2, 3, 4 tonight's more than you bargained for
5, 6, 7, 8 tell Mum we'll be home late

We are the kids in a world that is broken
We've got to change what we have that's ourselves

Last call, but if I'm being honest
Rather not have an end till the days upon us.
Forget the next morning, we give cheers to the sun.
I left a note that said,
"Tell Mum will be home late…"
