Pick Up The Pieces
What did I say, what did I do
Look in the mirror, I'm black and blue
Some Johnnie Walker Black and some Dunhill Reds
Starting to think it was something I said
It's getting kinda late and we both know
Time to pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
It's not so hard living life on the skids
I'm alright, it's kinda hard on my kids
Easy for you to pass judgment on my life
But you don't, you don't have my four ex wives
I may not place or show
But I pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
I worked part time but I got fired
'Cause it's a full time job just being me
Can't blame the boss if you don't show up
Can't blame your car if you ride the bus
Burning bridges, you reap what you sow
I gots to pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
They pulled my over on my ten speed bike
Who knew you still could get a DUI
Like what they've done with the early kind of jail
My lawyer says I'm too broke to post bail
Maybe I could work and sweep the floors
Until they pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
Oh man
Try to tell me I was drunk and disorderly
Pick up the pieces and go
I was just drunk
Well maybe a little disorderly
Pick up the pieces and go
Look in the mirror, I'm black and blue
Some Johnnie Walker Black and some Dunhill Reds
Starting to think it was something I said
It's getting kinda late and we both know
Time to pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
It's not so hard living life on the skids
I'm alright, it's kinda hard on my kids
Easy for you to pass judgment on my life
But you don't, you don't have my four ex wives
I may not place or show
But I pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
I worked part time but I got fired
'Cause it's a full time job just being me
Can't blame the boss if you don't show up
Can't blame your car if you ride the bus
Burning bridges, you reap what you sow
I gots to pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
They pulled my over on my ten speed bike
Who knew you still could get a DUI
Like what they've done with the early kind of jail
My lawyer says I'm too broke to post bail
Maybe I could work and sweep the floors
Until they pick up the pieces
Pick up the pieces and go
Oh man
Try to tell me I was drunk and disorderly
Pick up the pieces and go
I was just drunk
Well maybe a little disorderly
Pick up the pieces and go
