American Music Club - GARY'S SONG lyrics

Gary tell me why the leaves on the trees

Are falling this early as the spring

Why the leaves on the trees that are falling on us

Are like the words to the song

I've lived my whole life to sing

If you swim too much you'll drown

If we sit here and drink enough beer

We'll be two inflatable dolls in a hooker's bad dream

When the storm reaches us we'll be two blind drunks

Who've absorbed through the skin

a whole lifetime of kerosene

If you drink too much you will dream

And the shame of my life is watching you

Gary, I think we've worn out our welcome

They're waiting for us to leave

Gary, they've got a new kind of person

A newer, stronger, cleaner breed

And I think I just came in my pants

Oh baby do you want to dance

Everything collapses here, slow motion

And the roots of the dance and the stain in my pants

Are beyond any small man's conception

If you drink too much you will drown

And the shame of my life is watching you drown
