Well, it's been a long time since I've had a drink of alcohol Since the babies grieved and grandma lost a leg There ain't no sense in draggin' the lake anymore There are bats in the belfry and there's liquor at the store
Oh I've had a look or two at her figure at times That girl in her tight wearin' bra drivin' me out of my mind And there ain't no sense in rememberin' nothin' for score 'Cause my dad fought the japs in the war And - and - snd there ain't any more
If I was thinkin' about Thelesa How she tempted me in the basement Recording every noise I made There weren't no sense in what they had to say 'Cause they're tryin' to kill me and they say it's judgment day
~break~
When I think of her lips the way she had 'em at the store that night The undertaker was waitin' in the parking lot She told me I'd be going to find myself in a desperate way It was the best moment of my life
If you think that they'll find you it really doesn't matter I'll try my best to save you from the flatterer There ain't no sense in cryin' 'cause I'm gonna win in the end And you'll all be sittin' 'round havin' a good time
