Bartender

I'm thirsty, so pour me another drink
It won't help me forget my pain, but it'll give me a minute to think
Bartender, how about another round
These outside voices are getting much too loud, oh no

What am I? Why am I here?
I ponder on my thoughts while I drink my whiskey clear
Who are you? I don't believe we've met
Don't mind me, have a seat, I'm just digging in my head

Oh, lock and board me up,
Darling, throw away the key
Am I the best guy you've ever met? Oh, far be it from me, oh no
What'd you hear? What do you know? What did they say?
Oh, I don't know, but bartender,
send another drink my way

Bartender, be sure you mix it strong
Makes it easier to forget who I've been all along
All I've done is outweighed by your misdeeds
But without you, I just wouldn't be me

Oh, lock and board me up,
Darling, throw away the key
Am I the best guy you've ever met? Oh, far be it from me, oh no
What'd you hear? What do you know? What did they say?
Oh, I don't know, but bartender,
send another drink my way

Time is running out,
last call could be drawing near
I ask, should I go now?
But you always seem to keep me here

Oh, lock and board me up,
Darling, throw away the key
Am I the best guy you've ever met? Oh, far be it from me, oh no
What'd you hear? What do you know? What did they say?
Oh, I don't know, but bartender,
send another drink my way
