American Music Club - HOW MANY SIX PACKS DOES IT TAKE lyrics

I never had a lot to bring to the party

But a self-importance far beyond vanity

And a manic depression that just wouldn't go away

Like Peckinpaw with a bouquet of poison ivy

How many six packs does it take to screw in a light

It's good to be alive baby, sometimes it's alright

Nothing like a little vacation once in awhile

At the Cable Car Hotel San Francisco style

For three nights and three days

Jesus hung on a boom box while it played

Every single song ever sung by Billie Holiday

How many six packs does it take to screw in a light

It's good to be alive baby, sometimes it's alright

Afterwards I'm on California Street looking at the sky

The sun is going down pouring salt into my eyes

Like he said: When the light goes out so does fear

And you only see beauty as it begins to disappear

How many six packs does it take to screw in a light

It's good to be alive baby, sometimes it's alright
