Today Was a Liquor Store
Today was a liquor store, I was a drunk
Only good for smoking and drinking away, shooting dice and making hay
And casing the First National Bank
Today was a millionaire, I was a bum
And try just as hard as I might, they wouldn't put up a fair fight
But if you're ready, let's kill 'em all
Today was a honeymoon for a lonely groom
She threw him out into the fog, kicked him 'round just like a dog
Lord knows he was her only friend
The sun gets low and the night hits hard
I didn't miss her 'til they shut down the bar
Tomorrow's another and arise we must
To spin the wheel and kick out the dust
Today was a D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Maybe not for you or for me, but for some unlucky S.O.B
Lord, it hit him like a ton of bricks
Today was one goddamn son of a bitch
And now everything's shot to shit
Another like it and I'm liable to quit, tell my woman she can hock my ring
Nothing means much of anything, it just drains on down the sieve
Getting harder for a body to live but it's the same thing any old place
Only good for smoking and drinking away, shooting dice and making hay
And casing the First National Bank
Today was a millionaire, I was a bum
And try just as hard as I might, they wouldn't put up a fair fight
But if you're ready, let's kill 'em all
Today was a honeymoon for a lonely groom
She threw him out into the fog, kicked him 'round just like a dog
Lord knows he was her only friend
The sun gets low and the night hits hard
I didn't miss her 'til they shut down the bar
Tomorrow's another and arise we must
To spin the wheel and kick out the dust
Today was a D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Maybe not for you or for me, but for some unlucky S.O.B
Lord, it hit him like a ton of bricks
Today was one goddamn son of a bitch
And now everything's shot to shit
Another like it and I'm liable to quit, tell my woman she can hock my ring
Nothing means much of anything, it just drains on down the sieve
Getting harder for a body to live but it's the same thing any old place
