Weird Sayings

Liner Notes

I didn't get as many songs written this week as I would've liked, and I wanted to at least end the weekend off with a song. But having no ideas, I asked my family for some weird sayings for inspiration. I got:
- I'm too drunk to taste this chicken
- Measure once, cut four times
- He looked scary but he was all bark and had nowhere to go
- Ur a weird saying

And uh... this came out of it.

Lyrics

He seemed scary with a dark coat on
Brooding at the bar
He reached out to his mug
Downed his drink from a big ol' jar

His hands went down
Greasy, to the chicken below
Throttled a wing with his meaty fists
I could tell they weren't for show

Then he turned around
Grease dripping off his chin
He turned around
He said "I'm too drunk to taste this chicken"

He looked scary but I quickly realiazed
He was walking with one shoe on
I sidled up beside him to an empty stool
Seeing some fun anon

Then he turned around
Drunk advice he said
He turned around
Measure once, cut four times instead

He turned around
What's a weird saying I asked
He turned around
"You're a weird saying"
