Drunk Man's Theory

Transcribed by: Maha Khashan



James had a look on his face that I couldn't explain 
He said "Man, have you heard the news?" 
Ronnie killed Jackie, caught her screwing around 
While Hennessey was playing the blues 
Having sex on the beach and before we could reach 
Bacardi don blew him away 
Let the sea breeze blow in the moonlight glow 
I told ya nuff of what I think you should know 
 
I wish I could fly 
I, I wish I could fly 
Fly away now 
I wish I could fly, fly away 

Sitting alone in my Manhattan home 
I got a bottle of wine to drown my pains and sorrows 
Sing a poor tune about this love I once knew 
Margarita's her name 
Got a gin fizz plan to make some quick fast ends 
Hold up a bar and get drunk in the get away van 
Shoot the shooting stars they know who we are 
I said Mikey that's much too hard 

I wish I could fly 
I, I wish I could fly 
Fly away now 
I wish I could fly, fly away 

If I don't know you by now I will never know 
If I don't know you by now I will never know 

I wish I could fly 
I, I wish I could fly 
Fly away now 
I wish I could fly, fly away 

As the sirens roar outside the liquor store 
Stinger kneeled in cuffs as he started to pray 
Mary's been shot, she's all covered in blood 
How could a man act this way? 
No golden days, and that's the price he did pay 
Getting caught up in love with a bottle shape lay 
Its absolute he was wrong for leaving Johnny behind 
The brass monkey was dead and Remy was blind 

I wish I could fly 
I, I wish I could fly 
Fly away now 
I wish I could fly, fly away
