Had a few with my dinner
one of two right after work
a shot of ginger brandy 'cause my stomach hurt
owed Mike a round and I never let my friends drink alone
Its the Friday night Milwaukee medicine schedule
We went out drinking just 'cause it was so damn cold
barkeep called me yellow, so I picked up the dice and rolled
four 6's and a 2 ain't getting me anywhere
shootin's fun when you're winning, then your bank account gets bare
But I won 25 bucks on a pull tab, man that's cause for celebration
Scott just says I'm lucky, but I don't see the relation
you ain't winning any money if you ain't putting nothing in
and when the beers are just $2 I got a little more to spend
Had a few with my dinner
one of two right after work
a shot of ginger brandy 'cause my stomach hurt
owed Mike a round and I never let my friends drink alone
Its the Friday night Milwaukee medicine schedule
Things were going great and I was feeling mighty fine
but somewhere I lost count, and I lost track of the time
then the night took a turn in a way that I couldn't quite foresee
and it was 1:00am at the High Note singin' drunk karaoke
When the sun comes up the next morning and we're shockingly alright
Everyone comes over for their coffee and Pedialyte
There were lots of laughs and talkin' bout boy do you remember when
its the Saturday morning Milwaukee medicine regiment
Had a few with my dinner
one of two right after work
a shot of ginger brandy 'cause my stomach hurt
owed Mike a round and I never let my friends drink alone
Its the Friday night Milwaukee medicine schedule

Big Head Blues

Well I've been called so many names
like short and dumb and smelly and strange
but there's one thing that always sticks out like a sore thumb
May not get gold in playing guitar
or have the best looks or drive the best car
but in having a big ol' head, I'm number one
God bless my dear old mom
she lived a clean life and did nothing wrong
but boy her baby's head was a sight to see
And in middle school they'd give me hell
"Hey Melon Head!" they'd often yell
and they were right, I was a little bit top heavy
Well I kept on waiting to grow into it
maybe find some hats that would actually fit
but it appeared that this would be my destiny
See my grandpa had a big ol' noggin
and dad made sure the trait wasn't stoppin'
and if you look up at me now, I'm sure you'll see
When I'd come home with the big head blues
my mom would know just what to do
and her wisdom still sticks with me to this day
She said son if what they're saying is true
and it is... I mean look at you
then just laugh right along with 'em, and you'll be okay
Yeah I know my dome has its own orbit
but when it came to where I was gonna sit
I was never in the front of the class 'cause no one could see
So I sat in back and goofed around
with the folks were always bringing me down
and mom's advice had worked, and we got friendly
Well I like to think I turned out alright
behaved myself and stayed out of fights
'cause nobody wanted to hurt their hand on my cranium
And even though I look like Beavis' friend
I think I got the last laugh in the end
I got a big head full of friends names and silly songs

Zodiac Girl

Jesus was a zodiac girl
The only way I make sense of this big ol' goofy world
Is to say that Jesus was a zodiac girl
The stars tell me that she's a Capricorn
The person was determined on the day that she was born
The stars tell me that she's a Capricorn
Mercury must be in retrograde
Now Jesus is cranky so it's only her she saves
Aw man, Mercury must be in retrograde
Jesus was a zodiac girl
The only way I make sense of this big ol' goofy world
Is to say that Jesus was a zodiac girl
