It's Mikey Here
Lord, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
Now I don't get drunk, I get restless
And when I get restless, I drink
The last time I drank without moving
Was the first time I started to sink
I was getting gone if I wasn't already there
When it all occurred to me
And Lord, since then I've been ramblin'
But at least I know how to be
Lord, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
You see, everywhere I've been is an echo
Of the places I've already seen
Projections of past on the roads and the paths
And where they tend to lead
So if the air I breathe has all been breathed before
And it's that same damn knock on my proverbial door
Well I'll just cross my legs on my bathroom floor
And let what came now come to me
Lord, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
I was takin' a drive, to where I don't know
Yeah man, I know, it ain't nothin' new
Chasin' fog over my shoulder, found the world pulling over
Dipping my fingers through grass and dew
So if all my life is just recklessly racing
Avoiding the people and faces I should prolly be facing
Well, maybe I'll quit being reckless on some occasions
Yeah man, how does that sound to you?
Lord, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
Yeah, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
Now I don't get drunk, I get restless
And when I get restless, I drink
The last time I drank without moving
Was the first time I started to sink
I was getting gone if I wasn't already there
When it all occurred to me
And Lord, since then I've been ramblin'
But at least I know how to be
Lord, it's Mikey here
Havin' a beer, thinkin' bout'
Staying alive for a couple more years
I'll give it a go
See how it goes
Thinkin' fast

Thinkin' fast
But I'm takin' it slow
