[F]The cold ground was my bed last night, With a [C]breeze so hard it could [G]kill [F]With friends like these, who needs to die? So I [C]stay here for the [G]thrill My [F]last five pounds to get me home Well, [C]get me some bacon and whiskey I'll meet her [F]there in all my stinkin' [C]glory Drunk or [G]So-[C]ber (repeat)...

Sad Song On Repeat after a day surrounded by philistines a not yet broken poet takes refuge in the familiar peace of desolation echoing quietly through two small speakers years ago this song came to him in the most serendipitous way lost in a record store lost in his changing taste of music intirigued by its title he purchased the album on a whim when he got it home to his roach infested efficiency apartment it proved itself the perfect companion piece to the cheap bottles of scotch he'd grown fond of most of the tracks were laced with enough angst to keep his punk spirit burning yet calm enough to sense something he'd been waiting for was somewhere on this album and then it played track 17 at first he couldn't believe he'd found it the song he'd been waiting a lifetime for but upon a few more listens he came to realize it had found him duetting vocals literally sang his name in a tale of woe and misguided love against strings picked softly in the warmth of a minor key it comforted him it said "if you never have anything else you have me" years later it tells him the same
I would love to comment on this, I can only listen to my music if im drunk (don't get me wrong i'm not an alcoholic) im tipsy now, shit is hard cuz I love this band and other bands similar like the (Original Pogues) Flogging molly, Dropkick murphys) Ferocious dog, Booze 'N' Glory, fuck me I could go on forever.
there is a wealth of tears hope and understanding to found in this song. cheers
That's every Tosser's album. Great band, great songwriting. Very Shane McGowen-esque...
Christ what a drunken crying song......long live the Tossers.

Sad Song On Repeat
after a day surrounded by philistines
a not yet broken poet takes refuge
in the familiar peace of desolation
echoing quietly through two small speakers
years ago this song came to him
in the most serendipitous way
lost in a record store
lost in his changing taste of music
intirigued by its title
he purchased the album on a whim
when he got it home
to his roach infested efficiency apartment
it proved itself the perfect companion piece
to the cheap bottles of scotch he'd grown fond of
most of the tracks were laced with enough angst
to keep his punk spirit burning
yet calm enough to sense something
he'd been waiting for
was somewhere
on this album
and then it played
track 17
at first
he couldn't believe he'd found it
the song he'd been waiting a lifetime for
but upon a few more listens he came to realize
it had found him
duetting vocals literally sang his name
in a tale of woe
and misguided love
against strings picked softly
in the warmth of a minor key
it comforted him
it said
"if you never have anything else
you have me"
years later
it tells him the same
my good friend punkBrad introduced me to this song. I've had plenty of theses days...weeks...years. Everything is bad indeed... but it gets better
Sober
😂
