they're all getting wasted they're all getting high

#008 - Where the Fuck's my Beer? - 2002

Written due to a bet all the way back in 2002. I pretty much sat on the chorus until this fall and then I ended up with something that I'm really happy with. The cool part is that the song kind of sums up my thoughts on being sober and hanging out with people who are drinking to excess. Written as part of "Emotional Masochism" and going to end up as part of it. The guitar craziness that is the second half of the song was inspired by Nirvana's "Live at Reading" DVD and I did it as kind of an homage to Kurt.

"Where the Fuck's my Beer?"

They’re all getting wasted

They’re all getting high

I’m just playing cool

Like I’m an ordinary guy

Deep down I wanna go there

I wanna get messed up

I wanna drown my sorrow

In this sea of plastic cups

Where the fuck’s my beer?

It used to be right here

But now it disappeared

Oh where the fuck’s my beer?

I could wait til you’re distracted

Then maybe have a sip

And I’m getting so nervous

Cuz I really don’t wanna slip

Cuz after I get loaded

The lights all fade to dark

It makes my brain think awful thoughts

and tears my world apart

Where the fuck’s my beer?

It used to be right here

But now it disappeared

Oh where the fuck’s my beer?

This isn’t entertaining

I’m not having any fun

It really gets depressing

When you’re the sober one

I guess that I’ll just sit here

Waiting for you all to hurl

And then when you’re not looking

I’m leaving with your girl

Where the fuck’s my beer?

It used to be right here

But now it’s disappeared

Oh where the fuck’s my beer?
