Anything But Sober

Well you told me you would leave me

If I couldn't give up drinking

Well, baby, here's me showing you I can

And it may not be conventional

It's a more or less medicinal

Way to say that I'm an honest man

And you said that

I'd never

Well look at me right now

‘Cause I'm faded off ten milligrams

With a freshly rolled one in my hand

And I'm sliding off this broken pull-out couch

Hey, I'm getting stoned

In this cold house here all alone

Wishing on a half smoked four leaf clover

I'm in and out of codeine dreams

And ain't drank whiskey in a week

But, honey, I'm anything but sober

Well I tried going to some meetings

But I only end up meeting folks like me

Who have a need for getting high

I swear I'll never drink again

And that bottle's just a long lost friend

But that devil likes to keep me by his side

Hey, I'm getting stoned

In this cold house here all alone

Wishing on a half smoked four leaf clover

I'm in and out of codeine dreams

And ain't drank whiskey in a week

But, honey, I'm anything but sober

And you said that

I'd never

Take a look at me right now

'Cause I'm caught between these two white lines

But they'll be gone here in no time

I been trying to prove a point since you walked out

Hey, I'm getting stoned

In this cold house here all alone

Wishing on a half smoked four leaf clover

I'm in and out of codeine dreams

And ain't drank whiskey in a week

But, honey, I'm anything but sober

Hey, I'm getting stoned

In this cold house here all alone

Wishing on a half smoked four leaf clover

I'm in and out of codeine dreams

And ain't drank whiskey in a week

But, honey, I'm anything but sober

Aww yeah
