Painkiller

Swam to the Soggy Dollar bar
Sat in thatched shade, ocean waves, in my dreams I'm paid
Brain fog at the office job, social capital don't go as far
Bartender pass that Painkiller, mmm, I'm saved
I say
That you deserve a drink at the end of a tough day
This software architect got a plan he thinks
He tells me, wouldn't life be better not to need the drink?
That's well and good, but I put family money on the table
Lease life month to month, I'll quit when I'm well and able
Hateful eight straight hours a day, boss is creepy too
My dude, that's a job for a CPU
Performance review racing many thoughts
He scold me, work faster, get the opposite outcome he want
If you work on your feet, can't shake the adrenaline
If you ride a desk brain drained, I got the medicine

(When you)
Can't see the tree for the forest, swim to the
Navy strength Jamaican, pineapple, and orange
Coconut cream no dairy on lock
Dusted nutmeg and citrus skewer on top
For my fam working well past closing
Join me far away in the shade, sunkissed, by the ocean
Wait for the day don't need the potion to reset
But I'm not there yet, I'm not there yet

(When you)
Got rain for a hundred sixty days
Your brain might crave a thing to kill the pain
Choose from three strengths, depend how much pain you're in
Can't make it to the resort? At home get the same version
Two and a half, four, one, one; specs was written though
Don't rush the wake up, drink's made for sipping slow
Why we never satisfied where we are?
Daydream I never come home, and I've never even been to the bar
Never too old for fantasies, I say you got it wrong teach
Let's examine a culture crafted by Donn Beach
I know this woman, no passport, won't travel with her gals
"It's just an expensive way to eat and drink in different locales"
I'm like "Yuh!" I can taste the air now
Somewhere far away where you can let your hair down
Salted fresh catch but I crave sweet
Talking tropics, can't get there by paved streets

(When you)
Can't see the tree for the forest, swim to the
Navy strength Jamaican, pineapple, and orange
Coconut cream no dairy on lock
Dusted nutmeg and citrus skewer on top
For my fam working well past closing
Join me far away in the shade, sunkissed, by the ocean
Wait for the day don't need the potion to reset
But I'm not there yet, I'm not there yet

Navy strength Jamaican, pineapple, and orange
Coconut cream
Wait for the day don't need the potion to reset
But I'm not there yet, I'm not there yet
