Underpaid and Overdrunk

A song for the times!
…..
Underpaid and Overdrunk

Underpaid and overdrunk
When will this misery end
Whiskey diets on six-pack checks
And I’m in the hole again
And the hole reeks of a failure
I have learned to stand the smell
A tall stiff drink goes pretty far
In making heaven out of hell

Underpaid and overdrunk
I sit here and I think
How much overtime can it take
To purchase just one last drink
My job is like a punishment
For a crime that I don’t know
I like booze to fill my glass
So I will do as I am told

Don’t get me started
Cause I sure can go on
Sobbing my story until dawn
Each passing moment
A little less clearly
Til I’m sleeping on the lawn

Underpaid and overdrunk
Underneath the overpass
I’m sleeping off my ecstasy
Amongst the cans and broken glass
As cars roar by I wonder how
I’m gone pay my monthly rent
My money’s short
My drinks are long
I’m just overdrunk again

Underpaid and overdrunk
When will this misery end
Whiskey diets on six-pack checks
And I’m in the hole again
And the hole reeks of a failure
I have learned to stand the smell
A tall stiff drink goes pretty far
In making heaven out of hell
