My Boatless Booze Cruise

Jackknifed my strife, take it easy, sit outside
I just died a thousand times yesterday
Lay down, drown out, drowning in these cries and shouts
Changing so fast that it stays the same

Encryption ensconces this cryptic cliche
If it's not stupid, it's more of the same
I'm too tired to care, we're too busy to think
So let's sit back and laugh and watch the ship sink

The hull and the bow and the smokestacks
Disappeared and we watched them go down
With a screaming Bronx cheer, thank you dear
I will sleep and get up and eat unaware

But don't forget to forget you forgot me
When I show up at your door
I'm gonna remember that you are my friend
And fall asleep on your floor

Winter is coming, can you find your coat?
Let's go watch the water while the bodies still float
Slit my throat, it's more than a tad overdue
Slit my throat, I can't die in here 'til next June

I breathed, it was smoky, I cried and it steamed
I dreamed that I slept and I actually dreamed
What it is is a sickness, what it is is regret
And I might be dying, but I'm not dead yet

So don't forget to forget you forgot me
When I show up at your door
I'm gonna remember that you are my friend
And fall asleep on your floor

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend
And fall asleep on your floor
