a bourbon and coke please

a miller light please

oh you don’t have miller

than i suppose a bud will do

did you ask from the DUI too

or was that the bourbon and coke driving that car

perhaps it was the miller

or maybe you had a few shots as well that night

i get it, you want to let go

you want to stop feeling

you want to drown your sorrows away

and believe me when i say i’d like to do the same

but i don’t

not only because i am underage

but because i refuse to become the monster you are when you start drinking

so tell me dad,

who was driving that car?

you or the bourbon?
