From the recording Taking Names

Lyrics

Let's fake a wish that the coasts were closer
Tie our shoes and pretend we're sober.
It's alright but no we're not alright.
Pick a song and we'll sing it backwards
Won't get caught when we sing the bad words
It's alright but no we're not alright.
With simple tones in microphones.
Give me a key and I'll sing it flat.
Give me love and don't ask for it back.
It's alright but not we're not alright.
We've got the cash so let's blow it nowhere
No need to save 'cause I see you don't care.
It's alright but no we're not alright.
I can sing or I think I can try
I can drink I can drive I can die.
It's alright but no we're not alright.
'Cause simple tones in microphones
Remind me I'm not alone.
