Lou Reed
Underneath the Bottle
[Verse 1]
Ooh ooh whee, look at me
Looking for some sympathy
It's the same old story
Of a man and his search for glory
And he found it, there underneath the bottle
[Verse 2]
Things are never good, things go from bad to weird
Hey gimme another scotch with my beer
I'm sad to say
I feel the same today as I always do
Gimme a drink to relax me
[Verse 3]
Ooh ooh whee,, liquor set me free
I can't do no work, the shakes inside me
Ah shucks, I got the lousiest luck
I'm sick of this, underneath the bottle
[Verse 4]
Seven days make a week, on two of them I sleep
I can't remember what the heck I was doing
I got bruises on my leg
From I can't remember when
I fell down some stairs
I was lyin' underneath the bottle
[Verse 5]
Ooh ooh whee, son of a B
You get so down, you can't get any lower
So long world, you play too rough
And it's getting me all mixed up
I lost my pride and it's hidin'
There underneath the bottle
