Let me tell you
What went on last night
You were drunk then
You may not remember right
The night started out, just like any other
While getting wasted together, laughing at each other
Then you got this
Wild look in your eye
Yelling the cuss words
Middle fingers at the sky
When you get this rage so built up inside
It only happens when you're drunk and a mile high
You wonder why there's pictures on the wall
You wonder why you're laughing at them all
You got so drunk that night
You couldn't control yourself
And that is whhhyyy you ended up in jail (repeat 2x)
I can't believe
You can't remember
Sittin' in the hallway
Pullin that lever
We all had to get up
And go outside
Then the cops came
And they took you for a ride
Then you got this
Wild look in your eye
Yelling the cuss words
Middle fingers at the sky
When you get this rage so built up inside
It only happens when you're drunk and a mile high
You wonder why there's pictures on the wall
You wonder why you're laughing at them all
You got so drunk that night
You couldn't control yourself
And that is whhhhyyyy you ended up in jail (repeat 2x)
You wonder why there's pictures on the wall
You wonder why you're laughing at them all
You got so drunk that night
You couldn't control yourself
And that is whhhhyyyyy you ended up in jail
Up in jail (repeat)
