23 Beers - The Circus Contraption Band

When I was just a boy, we'll call it 15 or so I found myself annoyed by a syndrome of sorts in my bones That girl who's next to me, she found herself bored to tears She realized that if she wanted conversation, she's out of luck for three more years When I moved away from home, 100 miles or so I knew a change had grown inside my awkwardly long limbs and bones That girl who's next to me, she's friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty But all she has to say is a meat head-themed monologue on why Brad ran away She said, "All I can hope for is for me to get better Because all I can take is no more I'll win him back again, we'll be lovers, best friends He won't need no other woman like he did way back when he was with me" He needed more than me I'm friendly and thoughtful and quite awfully pretty But he needed more than me When I felt that I should leave, we'll call it midnight or so I found myself annoyed by a syndrome of sorts in her bones That girl who's next to me, she don't know her worth in this town Because her face starts to shine when that meat head behind me Is grinning as he's checking her out I said, "All I can hope for is for you to get better Because all I can take is no more I'll hide where I can, away from you and your friends Leaking tears over beers once again" Leaking tears over beers once again Leaking tears over beers once again

Baby I've been looking over here For a little while Just staring at that empty chair Right by your side So I thought I'd take a shot and walk on over Try to break a little ice with something colder You look like the kind of girl that just might spin my world Around So I gotta ask you now Where do you see yourself in five beers? Is it you and me hanging right here? When the lights come on, Are you already gone? Are you yelling at the band, "Play one more song!"? I ain't asking 'bout the rest of your life Just gotta know about the rest of your night Is it all a little hazy? Or baby, is it crystal clear? Where do you see yourself, see yourself in five beers? You be texting your friends about us Under the table Catching your little buzz And peeling them labels Will you sneak a kiss, steal my hat, When you're one short of a six pack? Where do you see yourself in five beers? Is it you and me hanging right here? When the lights come on, Are you already gone? Are you yelling at the band, "Play one more song!"? I ain't asking 'bout the rest of your life Just gotta know about the rest of your night Is it all a little hazy? Or baby, is it crystal clear? Where do you see yourself, see yourself in five beers? Ohhh, girl I just gotta know Where this night is going ohhh So, where do you see yourself in five beers? Is it you and me hanging right here? When the lights come on, Are you already gone? Are you yelling at the band, "Play one more song!"? I ain't asking 'bout the rest of your life Just gotta know about the rest of your night Is it all a little hazy? Or baby, is it crystal clear? I know where I see myself, But where do you see yourself, see yourself in five beers? Girl, where do you see yourself in five beers?

Well the lipstick on this coffee cup It ain't your shade of red And the perfume on the pillow on your side of the bed Ain't the kind you used to wear But you said you don't love me And she said she don't care She likes the sad songs that play all night long She never turns them off, just signs along She likes the big screen and the whole team And wants seconds of my chicken and my baked beans It might not be love like our love was But girl that's alright 'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night She don't make me wanna stay in bed when Monday rolls around And she don't have that touch that sends me ten feet off the ground Like you used to (like you used to) Yeah, believe me man, she's something But baby she ain't you She likes the sad songs that play all night long She never turns them off, just signs along She likes the big screen and the whole team And wants seconds of my chicken and my baked beans It might not be love like our love was But girl that's alright, yeah 'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night, woah She's all that I never though I'd find Yeah, but she can't get you off my mind She likes the sad songs that play all night long She never turns them off, just signs along She likes the big screen and the whole team And wants seconds of my chicken and my baked beans It might not be love like our love was But girl that's alright, yeah 'Cause she don't count the beers I drink at night Yeah, she don't count the beers I drink at night Oh
