Just One Shot

Just one shot baby
 Just one shot
 Dear GOD one shot
 Just one...
 And then there'll be no more:
 Just one shot baby
 Just one shot
 Dear GOD one shot
 Just one...
 And then there'll be no more:
 Just...
 One...
 Shot.
 And then there'll be no more...
 You are young.
 Life's been kind to you.
 But take it from me, child,
 You
 Will
 Learn...
 Pick this shit up...
 There's a hole in the world like a great black pit
 and the vermin of the world inhabit it
 And I couldn't take another fucking second of it
 so I got high
 JUST ONE SHOT
 At the top of the hole sit the privileged few
 Making mock of the vermin in the lower zoo
 And I was one of the animals under the few
 So I found my own way to fly...
 And life is the school in which we learn that
 Time is the fire in which we burn
 So I pulled a full-on Thich Quang Duc
 And lit myself up WATCH ME BURN
 Bang bang, shoot shoot
 BANG BANG SHOOT SHOOT
 Goes to the gun to your neck goes the spike to your arm
 With just one shot there's no more
 Here's a little ditty for the fiends like me...
 And you can booze to it
 And dead-end cruise to it
 You can waste another night
 Be born-to-lose to it
 And you can brawl to it
 You're pride can fall to it
 On your hands and knees alone at night you crawl to it
 I
 Knelt at the dope-spot
 Prayed to the dope-man
 Took the communion that was offered and it was "Dope, man..."
 Knelt at the dope-spot
 Prayed to the dope-man
 I'm on my knees the way you like it
 Take my soul, man...
 Pick this back up...
 What I gotta do to find a better way to make it through
 There's gotta be a better way than living like this
 I was waiting for a better way and waiting for a better day
 I waited so long that I lost my faith
 I was waiting I was hating I was pleading I was bleeding
 I was PRAYING FOR SOMETHING THAT NEVER CAME
 I prayed for something that never came
 So bang bang and no more:
 No one could save me and the pain drove me out of my mind
 Cuz the hole in my soul was a great black pit
 And I just had to find something to fill it with
 Cuz it was either that or slit my fucking wrists!
 With just one shot there's no more:
 Pull the gizzy's out ya' arms and sing along with me
 I
 Knelt at the dope-spot
 Prayed to the dope-man
 Took the communion that was offered and it was "Dope, man..."
 Knelt at the dope-spot
 Prayed to the dope-man
 I'm on my knees the way you like it
 Take my soul, man...
 Now back to the song at hand...
 Yeah you can fly to it
 And climb so high to it
 And in a Dunkin' Donuts bathroom
 You can DIE TO IT
 HA HA!
 And you can burn to it
 Yeah you can burn to it
 Burn
 Burn
 And then there will be no more
 BREATHE
 Just...
 BREATHE
 One...
 BREATHE
 Shot...
 BREATHE
 And then there'll be no more...
 And I was waiting
 FOR SO LONG
 And I was hating
 FOR SO LONG
 And I was praying for something that never came.
 And I was pleading
 FOR SO LONG
 And I was bleeding
 FOR SO LONG
 And I was fiending for something that never came.
 But with just one shot baby
 Just one shot
 Dear GOD one shot
 (something that never came)
 JUST ONE
 With just one shot baby
 Just one shot
 Dear GOD one shot
 I FINALLY FOUND WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR...
