Intro: 


I wish i was still drinking

Whiskey wine and beer
                                           
The sound of glasses clinking so sweet to my ear
                                                 
I wouldnt have to listen to the time thats running out

I use it much more wisely
                
I drink and fall about


I wish i was still drinking

Then ill have no fear
                               
T tell you how to fix the world and have another beer
                                     
I wouldnt have to feel the pain thats in a mothers eyes
                                                 
I drink till i believe the sound of my own drunken lies

     


I wish i was still drinking

When nothing is to clear
                                     
Like the tv evangelist fueling peoples fear
                                                      
Taking all there heart and cash in the name of the holy one

The days are surely numbered
                    
The days will surely come


I wish i was still drinking 

I was a lot more fun
                          
Life of the endless party, friends with anyone
                                
I wouldnt have to answer for the promises i broke
                                                     
Like the president today, Oh when he drank and snorted coke

     


I wish i was still drinking

Then i wouldnt have to hear
                                      
Sound of rapid gun fire exploding in my ear
                                                       
I drink through the nightmares of friends crying out for help

I would drink through everything 
                   
iv seen or heard or felt


I wish i was still drinking

I really really do
                                    
I get it on my fair weather friends, like him and her and you
                                  
I count all the missing teeth that can not longer chew

I even drive my old white car
                        
Cause she likes drinking to


I wish i was still drinking

Whiskey wine and beer
                                           
The sound of glasses clinking so sweet to my ear
                                                 
I wouldnt have to listen to the time thats running out

I use it much more wisely
                
I drink and fall about
