One Evening Lyrics - The Jesus Lizard

One evening of pourin' booze 

An eventide of hooch 

He'd always say, "That pick-me-up 

bone knocked me down." 

Soakin' in the dark 

Dragged him to a desperate day 

That dirty girl led him drunk away 

And then his oats from the night before 

Came up with the sun 

Bad days had been 

but not like this 

Lost in a daze (Vaneo mayonnaise) 

Momming bed no good 

And then his oats from the night before 

Came up with the sun 

This time he had a better idea 

this time he had a clue 

he had a precedent this time 

this time he knew what to do 

That dirty girl led him drunk away 

and left him in the sewer 

it was right there at that then time 

he knew he should never have screwed her
