[Verse 1]
I wanna get in a fight tonight
But only if I lose
Piss of the right guy, get me a black eye
And feel my skin start to bruise

I wanna get drunk and say something dumb
That's all too full of truth
Spit into his wine, swing for the sunshine
And wake up missing a tooth

And when it's done I'll have my fun
And bum a smoke or two
Scream at the streetlights, call it a good night
And pass out in a telephone booth

[Chorus]
And all my dreams
Are black and blue
Stuck on self-pity
For my self-abuse

[Verse 2]
Give me knuckles, give me trouble
Give me blood dried on my clothes
Get me a whiskey, somеbody hit me
Get me tipsy and brеak my nose
I am no outlaw, this is no quickdraw
This is human, this is losing rest
But if I get lucky, someone'll tuck me
In to a gravel bed

[Chorus/Outro]
And I can see God
Shaking his head
Crying that I stop
Before I wind up dead
But this ain't about my rage, I have no taste for seeing red
I'm dreaming black and blue
Black and blue again
I'm dreaming black and blue
Black and blue again
