Hello my name is Ishmael Forget the one about the whale I'll tell you of a broken-hearted sailor Maggie took my loyalty, I treated her like royalty What starts out with such promise ends in failure Oh my love I can't stand to be alone But I been drinkin' too much I better go home And I think here I'm better of alone But I been thinking too much I better go home All hail the Queen of cruelty She has duly been anointed These final word "her majesty" had to say "He who expects nothing never will be disappointed" Nothing's what she left me so I guess i'm OK Oh my love I can't stand to be alone But I been drinkin' too much I better go home And I think here we all stand alone But I been thinking too much I better go home Lie lie lie lie lie Lie lie lie lie lie A promise made to a tab unpaid It's home I wade to my bed unmade A fool to think that I could ever change her A king upon my barstool throne I vow to never drink alone I only drink with friends or total strangers We're all broken hearted here We're all broken hearted here We're all broken hearted here We're all broken Oh my love I can't stand to be alone But I been drinkin' too much I better go home And I think here we all stand alone But I been thinking too much I better go home I better go home I better go home I better go home I better go home I better go home
