I Laughed

Anyone out there alone
You know, be alone
Live alone
Don't have nobody
Do things alone
Feel alone, lonely

Well, I tell you what
You stop that drinking
And then you'll know what alone is

Alcohol's your friend
It be with you when you're alone
And then you're not alone

You're drinking and it's warm
Yeah you know that friendship in a bottle

Pretty soon you'll be asleep
And then tomorrow day there's people
Carry you through till the night
And you see the alone
But make friends
With the bottle

Wеll, stop that drinking and then
You'll really know
What it is to be alonе

When them bottles come down
And crash all over the street
And spill on the floor
And there's no more
It's not so bad
You start to feel things
As they really are

Oh I know
That one don't hurt
And two don't hurt
And ten don't hurt

I never did feel any pain
I could always talk my way out of it
Saying stupid things
Even I laughed at myself

You can take out all that rubbish
Leave your mind clear
Of all the clutter
Of a drunk stupid haze

Ah, but it's too hard
Rather, it's too easy
To keep drinking, that is

Ah but my oh my
It's good to feel real
Even if it's stone cold lonely
At least you can see the distance
You left between all else
Not even trying
It's just the way it is
