The dark glow of the neon bar sign Lights up the shadows inside me With the intensity that is mounting exponentially But what do these nights bring me? When four-and-a-quarter gets you a glass With that brown faceted hue, man But what does it do besides push me closer to you? It's a strange love affair But it never seems to get me anywhere Oh, I gotta stop it, man I gotta break it off I gotta break it off from here And I can't bear to hear "you're beautiful" From those lips soaked in that musk Of that best new seasonal on tap Man, what's the sense in that? When every night seems like everything and all But I don't walk away I don't walk away No, honey, I crawl It's a strange love affair But it never seems to get me anywhere Oh, I gotta stop it, man I gotta break it off I gotta break it off from here I gotta break it off from here Oh, then why do I keep on saying the same old thing? When I never believe them No, I never believe them wholeheartedly Oh, I gotta cuff up my sleeve I gotta sell this same old Somewhere else down the road I gotta get up I gotta get up I gotta get up and go I gotta get up and go I gotta get up and go Yeahhhh But after these nights of libatious provisions Man, I get left to myself Just to contemplate all my useless decisions And what does it do besides Push me closer to you? It's a strange love affair But it never seems to get me anywhere Oh, I gotta stop it, man I gotta break it I gotta break it off from here I gotta break it off from here I gotta break it off from here I gotta break it off from here
