The Beer
Dawson Kimya Lyrics

The beer I had for breakfast was a bottle of Mad Dog
I started my day off with low quality, high alcohol, grape-flavored fortified wine

And my 20/20 vision was fifty percent off
My perception wasn't completely clear

You said punch-buggy red and punched me right in my left eye
You hit me in the face after making a statement about a car color game

I said don't you mean pediddle? and I lit his house on fire
I corrected you about the car color game and then set your house on fire

He came home on acid I was holding his shotgun
My friend returned while under the influence of drugs and I was holding his firearm

I was dressed like Tina Turner in beyond thunder dome
I was wearing a costume resembling that of a character from a post-apocalyptic movie

He said don't shoot, I said I won't I love you you're my friend
My friend asked me to not use his firearm, I reassured him that I loved him and wouldn't harm him

I handed him my wig and shot myself in the head
I gave him my fake hair and then used the gun to shoot myself in the head

Then I stuffed a box of tissues in the hole in my skull
I used tissues to stop the bleeding from my self-inflicted gunshot wound

I got in my Mazda and I drove to the mall
I left the scene in my car and drove to a shopping center

I got a big Johnson shirt and some silicone tits
I purchased a t-shirt with a raunchy phrase and fake breasts made of silicone

When I pulled out the tissues they were covered with shit
When I removed the makeshift tissue bandage from my head, it was soiled with feces

And the beer I had for breakfast was a box of cheap white wine
I started my day off with low quality, high alcohol, white wine in a box

And the boom box on my shoulder was a box of clementines
I carried a portable radio on my shoulder and also had a box of citrus fruits

I ate every single one without noticing the mold
I ate all of the clementines without realizing that they had gone bad

You said you're gross my darling, I said no I'm rock and roll
You called me disgusting, but I tried to justify my behavior with a reference to rock music culture

Even though I'd never ever been in a band
Despite the fact that I had no experience playing in a musical group

I got cool as black ice tattooed on my hand
I had the phrase 'cool as black ice' permanently inked on my skin

And the christians gave me comic books as if I would be scared
Religious individuals gave me comic books with the intent of instilling fear in me

Of burning in hell well I was already there
I believed I was already living in a hellish state

And the beer I had for breakfast silver bullet in the brain
I started my day off with a type of beer and the sensation of something piercing my head

And the beer I had for lunch was a bottle of night train
I consumed a certain brand of high-alcohol content wine for my midday meal

And the beer I had for dinner was my crazy neighbor's pills
I took medication from my eccentric neighbor and called it my dinner

We had to sit down on skateboards jut to make it down the hill
We used skateboards as a mode of transportation to get down a slope

Then I peed my pants and you stole the groom's cigar
I urinated on myself and you took the groom's cigar without permission

And some old man made me watch him masturbate locked in his car
An elderly man forced me to observe him engaging in sexual activity while enclosed in his vehicle

When I got back to the apartment you were face down on the floor
Upon returning to our residence, I found you laying on your stomach on the floor

You said don't go to bed yet let's go get a 64
You suggested we obtain a 64-ounce container of beer before going to sleep

And the beer I had had for breakfast was a pint of Jim Beam
I started my day off with a pint of a certain brand of whiskey

And a fifth of peach schnapps and some warm Sunny D
I drank a certain amount of peach-flavored brandy and a certain brand of citrus-flavored beverage that was not chilled

And you said bottoms up just as I bottomed out
As I was hitting rock bottom, you told me to consume more alcohol

I tried to scream fuck you but blood was pouring out my mouth
I attempted to curse you, but I was bleeding heavily from my mouth

Evan Dando never planned on telling you the truth
Evan Dando, a singer-songwriter, never intended on being honest with you

And your Leonardo ID card is your fountain of youth
Your identification card with a picture of Leonardo DiCaprio holds sentimental value to you

You can be a teenager for your whole fucking life
You hold on to your youth and choose to act like a teenager indefinitely

Just find some pretty sucker and make that bitch your wife
Just pursue a beautiful, naive person and marry them to suit your own desires

I guess by now you all know my friend Danny broke his neck
It is probable that you are aware of my friend Danny's neck injury

He was driving home from Sirens when he got into a wreck
His injury was caused by a car accident that occurred while he was returning from a place called Sirens

First I cried for him and then I cried for me
At first, I expressed sadness for my friend's injury, and then later, for my own struggles

Haunted by the ghost of the girl I used to be
I feel tormented by memories and unresolved issues from a past version of myself

But the rocks with holes are warm in my hands
I feel comfort in my surroundings, particularly picking up warm, porous rocks

And I buried my toes in the hot hot sand
I enjoy the sensation of sinking my toes in the heated sand

And the silver pink pony kisses me and says
In my imagination, an imaginary shiny pink pony approaches me and gives me a kiss, speaking these words:

You've come a long, long way and you deserve to be really happy
You've done a lot of work to make progress, and you should let yourself be happier
