What About Mouthwash? |
| Me and Jesse’s cousin |
| Went to the Chevron after work |
| To grab a couple sixers |
| And some beefy jerk |
| The man behind the counter |
| Said he’d like to see ID |
| I handed him one of a guy |
| Who sorta looked like me |
| He frowned and asked me what was my address |
| I knew the street, but I couldn’t quite get the rest |
| I said I lost my real ID, and that |
| We would pay him double |
| We swore that we weren’t cops |
| And that he wouldn’t get in trouble |
| He smiled and said «I'm sorry |
| But it’s already 12:04 |
| And the state says it’s too late to sell |
| Alcohol anymore» |
| Sadly we went to put back the beer |
| But then a bottle caught my eye, and I got an idea |
| What about mouthwash? |
| What about huffing paint? |
| You don’t need ID to buy it |
| And you can’t arrive too late |
| What about mouthwash? |
| What about smelling glue? |
| If they say you can’t buy liquor |
| Then some cough syrup should do |
| Before we count this night up as a loss… |
| What about mouthwash? |
| Sitting in the truck in the parking lot |
| Underneath the moon and all them stars |
| We don’t need their liquor stores |
| And we don’t need their bars |
| Drinking Listerine and tonic |
| And Jesse’s cousin sipped a Scope and Coke |
| A Robitussin Red Bull |
| Now that shit ain’t no joke |
| But something changed within me at that store |
| Beer and spirits just don’t cut it anymore |
| The whispers that I hear |
| And the looks that I keep getting |
| When I toast with a Dimetapp daiquiri |
| At a fancy wedding |
| And last night a cop pulled me over |
| Going down 95 South |
| And he saw the Sherman-Williams |
| All over my nose and mouth |
| He just looked straight at me, with a, a pity in his eyes |
| Like he just saw the depths of sadness a man can have inside |
| And the lengths to which he’ll go to numb it down for another day |
| He looked as if he’d cried, and then he just walked away |
| I watched as he drove off down the interstate |
| And then I thought to myself, that’s another reason this stuff’s great |
| What about mouthwash? |
| What about sniffing glue? |
| When the police pull you over |
| They ain’t sure what to do |
| What about mouthwash? |
| Or even hand sanitizer? |
| When they check your glove compartment |
| They won’t be none the wiser |
| Before we count this night up as a loss… |
| Say, «What about mouthwash?» |
| What about mouthwash? |
