The Jesus Lizard
One Evening
[Verse 1]
One evening of pourin' booze, an eventide of hooch
He'd always say, "That pick-me-up bone knocked me down."
Soakin' in the dark, dragged him to a desperate day
That dirty girl led him drunk away
And then his oats from the night before
Came up with the sun

[Verse 2]
Bad days had been but not like this
Lost in a daze (Vaneo mayonnaise), momming bed no good
And then his oats from the night before
Came up with the sun

[Bridge]
This time he had a better idea
This time he had a clue
He had a precedent this time
This time he knew what to do

[Verse 3]
That dirty girl led him drunk away
And left him in the sewer
It was right there at that then time
He knew he should never have screwed her
