Say It Ain’t So (Kitchen Tape Demo) Lyrics
[Intro]
Oh yeah
Feels good
[Verse 1]
Somebody's Heine'
Is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one
Is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
[Interlude]
Oh yeah, alright
Feels good, inside
[Verse 2]
Flip on the telly
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling
Behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
Oh yeah
Feels good
[Verse 1]
Somebody's Heine'
Is crowding my icebox
Somebody's cold one
Is giving me chills
Guess I'll just close my eyes
[Interlude]
Oh yeah, alright
Feels good, inside
[Verse 2]
Flip on the telly
Wrestle with Jimmy
Something is bubbling
Behind my back
The bottle is ready to blow
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Verse 3]
I can't confront you
I never could do
That which might hurt you
So try and be cool
When I say
"This way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day"
So be cool
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Bridge]
Dear Daddy, I write you
In spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus
Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's
Awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
Whoa, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
I can't confront you
I never could do
That which might hurt you
So try and be cool
When I say
"This way is a water slide away from me
That takes you further every day"
So be cool
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Bridge]
Dear Daddy, I write you
In spite of years of silence
You've cleaned up, found Jesus
Things are good, or so I hear
This bottle of Stephen's
Awakens ancient feelings
Like father, stepfather
The son is drowning in the flood
Whoa, whoa-oh, whoa-oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Outro: Spoken]
Life taker
Heartbreaker
[Chorus]
Say it ain't so
Your drug is a heartbreaker
Say it ain't so
My love is a life taker
[Outro: Spoken]
Life taker
Heartbreaker
