Gary's Song Lyrics - American Music Club

Gary, tell me why the leaves on the trees 

Are falling this early as the spring? 

Why the leaves on the trees that are falling on us 

Are like the words to the song 

I've lived my whole life to sing 

If you swim too much, you'll drown 

If we sit here and drink enough beer 

We'll be two inflatable dolls in a hooker's bad dream 

When the storm reaches us we'll be two blind drunks 

Who've absorbed through the skin a whole lifetime of kerosene 

If you drink too much you will dream 

And the shame of my life is watching you 

Gary, I think we've worn out our welcome 

They're waiting for us to leave 

Gary, they've got a new kind of person 

A newer, stronger, cleaner breed 

And I think, I just came in my pants 

Oh baby, do you want to dance? 

Everything collapses here, slow motion 

And the roots of the dance and the stain in my pants 

Are beyond any small man's conception 

If you drink too much you will drown 

And the shame of my life is watching you drown
