Barry Sides: Listen & Lyrics

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

Excuse me for being so naked
Excuse me for being so bold
But I'd rather drink whiskey than water
And I'd rather be young than be old

Pardon my dust but I'm workin'
Workin' on not workin' at all
I got tired of hearin' you're fired
By big men who are really small

Depression she is my shadow
She walks with me everyday
My defcit is inattention
In attention I never can pay

I'm impulsive, demanding and charming
Sometimes I am dangerous too
Additive I'm hooked on seduction
Give me time and I will seduce you

I walk close to the edge to get higher
On the way up from my low self esteem
With my demons I have become frienndly
With my friends sometimes I am mean

I'm tired of folks always leavin'
Just coming to tell me goodbye
I don't know anymore what to believe in
Sometimes I believe I should die

Hell dyin' would have to be easy
Compared to livin' this way
Livin' is what's done between dyin'
Am I livin' or dyin' today

Bury me in a box with no handles
Then throw it in a big hole
Say a prayer and blow out the candles
Wish goodbye and good luck to my soul
