Lyrics Black Monday - The Union

Black Monday

Sing it loud, sing it sweet
With hellfire fury, stomping your feet
If fortune leaves you in a bar downtown
Take your self-pity and drink it down
Cuervo’s revenge on a sunny day
My eyes are red, skin is grey
There was a time when it wasn’t this way
Just the glass, the bottle and me
She was a dancer with expensive taste
I played the markets 'til Black Monday
She took the rest and ever since that day
It’s the glass, the bottle and me
So sing it loud, sing it sweet
With hellfire fury, stomping your feet
If fortune leaves you in a bar downtown
Take your self-pity and drink it down
Tired of do-gooders trying to make me change
Saying mend your ways before you lose your friends
I tell them over and over again
It’s the glass, the bottle and me
Sing it loud, sing it sweet
With hellfire fury, stomping your feet
If fortune leaves you in a bar downtown
Take your self-pity and drink it down
Standing here on the edge of self-destruction
Biding my time
Waiting for Lady Luck to call my name
And drag me away
Cuervo’s revenge on a sunny day
My eyes are red, skin is grey
There was a time when it wasn’t this way
Just the glass, the bottle and me
Sing it loud, sing it sweet
With hellfire fury, stomping your feet
If fortune leaves you in a bar downtown
Take your self-pity and drink it down
Drink it all down
Take your self-pity
And drink it down
