Lyrics: Alcohol

I can make anybody pretty, I can make you believe any lie
I can make you pick a fight with somebody twice your size
Well, I’ve been known to cause a few break-ups, an' I’ve been known to cause a few births
Well, I can make you new friends, or get you fired from work

And since the day I left Milwaukee, Lynchburg an' Bordeaux, France
Been making the bars lots of big money an' helpin' white people dance
I got you in trouble in High School, but College, now that was a ball
You had some of the best times you’ll never remember with me: alcohol, alcohol

I got blamed at your wedding reception for your best man’s embarrassing speech
And also for those naked pictures of you at the beach
I’ve influenced kings and world leaders, I helped Hemingway write like he did
And I’ll bet you a drink or two, that I can make you put that lampshade on your head

‘Cause since the day I left Milwaukee, Lynchburg and Bordeaux, France
I been making a fool out of folks just like you an' helping white people dance
I am medicine and I am poison, I can help you up or make you fall
You had some of the best times you’ll never remember with me: alcohol

Yeah, since the day I left Milwaukee, Lynchburg an' Bordeaux, France
Been making the bars lots of big money (helpin' white people dance)
Yeah, I got you in trouble in High School, but College, now that was a ball
You had some of the best times you’ll never remember with me: alcohol, alcohol
