Social Drinker Lyrics

Verse 1: Duncecap
Sitting like a scolded dog, no one really knows the fog
Blasphemy everything, Jacob's ladder uppercuts your jaw
Scramble for angles, scratch the cue ball in
All I really want's love when the roof falls in
A black bag can't mask pain
Any draft, plenty back, that's great, make 'em sack that pain
Like my problem fits in a box wine of an alcoholic cliché
After all, tomorrow is another chardonnay
My hardships start to fade, hearts gets awful grey, darkness starts my day
Black out curtains, blacked out life, smoke sacks at night
Hit both limits, tapped out twice
I have a sense of fate that breaks hastefully, lately
Dreams are dating me, get a job that steak ain't free
You can't break your leash, unchain your beast
You died a long time ago Mr. Enabled Creep
Now you see...

Hook: x2
Social Drinker and my friends are alcoholics
I got a problem and I don't know what to call it
Down the liquor, chew the ice and eat the garnish
Down the liquor, chew the ice and eat the garnish
(There's no fun drinking alone, he want's company)

Verse 2: Lt Headtrip
I promised myself that I wouldn't drive
So I'm the designated drunk and I'm trying to look alive
With a dependance the government couldn't hide
And a desperate dose of penance, functional isn't fine anymore
She don't deserve my crooked eyes that look deprived of 
Who she fell for, before I mistook imbibing
For a lifestyle fitting to build trust in a partner
I'm trying to be an artist, but I'm rusting through my armor
She'd rather me dry and I'd rather be high 
So I dabble in lies of sobriety she can't seem to buy
Pretty promise with a cherry and a class full of rye
I took the bullet for myself and happily died
Nah, survived by a damsel and a gaggle of…
Un-pacified rappers that'll patch up in time
I'll pay my tab after last call arrives 
And hit that bottom shelf liquor on the other side
Fuck it, I tried 
(Would act like a deadly poison)

Hook: x2
Social Drinker and my friends are alcoholics
I got a problem and I don't know what to call it
Down the liquor, chew the ice and eat the garnish
Down the liquor, chew the ice and eat the garnish

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
