o senhor Stephin Merritt devia mas é aprender a tar caladinho.

Sober, life is a prison

Shit face, it is a blessing

Sober, nobody wants you

Shitfaced, they're all undressed

Sober, it's ever darker

Shitfaced, the moon is nearer

Sober, you're old and ugly

Shitfaced, who needs a mirror?

Sober, you're a crogmagnun

Shitfaced, you're very clever

Sober, you never should be

Shitfaced, now and forever!

I gotta get too drunk to dream

'cause dreaming only makes me blue

I gotta get too drunk to dream

because I only dream of you

I gotta get too pissed to miss you

or I'll never get to sleep

I gotta drink wine not to pine for you

and god knows that ain't cheap

I know you think i'm insane

I know it's not appealing

but til I'm feeling no pain

guess what I'll be feeling?

I gotta get too fried to cry,

or I'll be crying all night long

I gotta get too high to sigh

oh my god where did I go wrong?

So why do I get plastered?

and why am I so lonely?

it's you, you heartless bastard

you're my one and only!

I gotta get too pissed to miss you

or I'll never get to sleep

I gotta drink wine not to pine for you

and god knows that ain't cheap

and god knows that ain't cheap!
