Mexican Coke Lyrics - Wooden Wand

You ask me why I carry cash around with me all the time— 

Don't you see all these "Yard Sale" signs? 

When I flip this first edition for a cool grand 

Then maybe you'll understand 

Where there's a will, there are ways 

So take this five-dollar bill 

And go and buy yourself a Mexican Coke with the change 

There's no using all the unused hours down the line 

You can't stockpile time 

What has the night to do with sleep 

When there are promises to keep? 

Remember all that you pass 

Make the first thing the last 

The innocent get to dream, the rest of us crash 

If you leave the doors open so the flies can escape 

You're just inviting the rattlesnakes! 

We can always do more harm than good 

Our best intentions misunderstood 

Whether we drink from the stream 

Or find it's just a mirage 

Bet you a Mexican Coke it comes out in the wash
