Together Forever

Well, I’m afraid
I’m afraid
I’m afraid

One of these you’re gonna
Sober up and leave me
One of these days you’re gonna
Get your head on straight
Your moment of clarity’ll
Get here, believe me
But, it’s never gonna happen
If I have my way

So, I add a little
Add a little
Add a little

Whiskey to your cornflakes
There may be something extra
In your ham on rye
Where do you stand on cocaine
In your milkshake?
And of course there’s Oxys
In the apple pie

No I don’t
No I don’t

Have time to drop you
At the meetin’
Whose fault was it
You got that DUI?
Why don’t we just spend
A quiet evening?
Just me and you
And some brownies
You’ve got to try

If you’re having trouble concentrating
And with forklift operating
That’s how you can tell
You really love me

Well, there’s workman’s compensation
If you have a situation
Where you run over your foreman
On the night-shift

Besides, baby, you seem just fine to me

Well, I’m afraid
I’m afraid
I’m afraid

One of these you’re gonna
Sober up and leave me
One of these days you’re gonna
Get your head on straight
Your moment of clarity’ll
Get here, believe me
But, it’s never gonna happen
If I have my way

So, I add a little
Add a little
Add a little

Whiskey to your cornflakes
There may be something extra
In your ham on rye
Where do you stand on cocaine
In your milkshake?
And of course there’s Oxys
In the apple pie
