He was drunk, I was blind

Though we tried to be kind

I was a runt, we told lies
Eb
But to our great surprise

Gm7 C
All the sh*t that we did
Gm7 C
Brought us some money, I guess

And those snotty young kids

Were a standing success
Bb F
Helped us conquer and rise
Bb C
And we learned in this hell

I don't wanna get wise)

Are what triggered our breaks
Dm C
We were sh*ts, oh, no disguise

And it is no surprise

That the cr*p that we did

Brought us money, God bless

And we learned in this hell
