Vision Quest
I went out drinking with the reaper
And man did it get live
You could count it by the liter
It's kinda hard to quantify
Come morning he was shakin'
And he began to sob
I said, "man, you got to keep it together
Or you gonna be out a job"
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Three days later he came knockin'
And I was so surprised
He wasn't offerin' a coffin
He was there to socialize
I'm on a vision quest
And everybody's invited
Ain't life just the best?
It's so damn exciting
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Man did it get live
Man did it get live
Man did it get, man did it get live
Man did it get, man did it get live
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
And man did it get live
You could count it by the liter
It's kinda hard to quantify
Come morning he was shakin'
And he began to sob
I said, "man, you got to keep it together
Or you gonna be out a job"
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Three days later he came knockin'
And I was so surprised
He wasn't offerin' a coffin
He was there to socialize
I'm on a vision quest
And everybody's invited
Ain't life just the best?
It's so damn exciting
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
Man did it get live
Man did it get live
Man did it get, man did it get live
Man did it get, man did it get live
Oh pale rider, you need a hella talking to
Why don't you leave me be
I got things to do
Oh pale rider, the Mrs has it out for you
And if she sees you here
She gonna cut you through
