Strawberry Babe

lyrics

Strawberry babe, you don't know how to behave
Write the place off for good
I saw you there with your strawberry hair
Just like I knew I would

Should I stay out? I've been coming in to work too late
I should be good and go to bed
I'll just have one drink, "Keep it open", "Can I get another one?"
Soon enough it's gone to my head

Strawberry babe, you don't know how to behave
Write the place off for good
I saw you there with your strawberry hair
Just like I knew I would

Walk in to the place I always regret in the morning
But it's pretty comfortable for hell
One of my organs is failing or maybe it's just acid reflux
Buy three more drinks? Might as well

Strawberry babe, you don't know how to behave
Write the place off for good
I saw you there with your strawberry hair
Just like I knew I would

Go outside, bum another cigarette
Make the best of what you have
Even when the place is packed and push comes to shove
All you get is pain from the less crowded path

It's all in the past, now I'm all by my lonesome
Nothing to do but lie in bed
Drinking cheap scotch from a glass my brother gave me for my birthday
What good is love when your heart is dead?
