Lyrics[edit | edit source]

The following lyrics may be incomplete.

I made a mess in the kitchen, the ashtray's all full
There’s mud on the carpet and a turd in the bowl
Me and my buddies got wasted last night
Watching a tape of a Holyfield fight
We got the dog high and he puked on the stairs
Couldn’t find a rag so we just left it there
