I sat down on a stool next to you
To see how life was going
But I didn’t get the first word out
When your monologue started flowing

Troubles with your old lady
Brought you to this spot
And when I tried to talk about me
Well, that’s when you got hot

(chorus)
You were five beers into yourself
When I asked what was new
You were five beers into yourself
And it was all about you
Cause you were five beers into yourself
And that’s the drinking fact
Because five beers into yourself
Says you ain’t coming back

(verses)
Politics and actresses, yeah
You covered ’em all
Along with how the price of gas
Would be our downfall

You talked about a million things, a million names
It was a wall of sound
They only time you had to pause
Was to call for another round

(chorus)

(verses)

(I’ve got the end of this story)
Two hours later you were still going on
As I got up to leave
My movement must have derailed your train
Because you stopped to breathe

“Where are you going?” you said to me
With a hint of desperation
I said I was going on back home
Where two makes a conversation

(chorus)
