lyrics

Sourly, you go into battle
armed with a cup of lemonade.
So grand with your stand,
please allow me to admire your parade.

Take a swig with me,
come on and pour another glass
with a little bit of sugar and a couple of ice cubes,
and another more would be nice.

have a little bit of lemon
squeeze me a lemon

You are tempting me,
a sour way to blow my cash
--I look into my wallet and my dollars are gone, gone ...

into the summer abyss
into a river of lemon juice and piss.
(take a look at what you've made)

I remember summer sun,
swamp-ass indoors, cracked lips, and sandy tongue.
A river of sweat that flowed through my pits,
touching the fan with my pinky for fun, ...

Take a swig with me, ...
