raise a glass - paul and the wish lyrics

Loading...

well, i used to be a joker and a drunkard and a thief
but i wasn’t very funny, so the booze was my relief
and i’d forget to steal ’cause i was so high all the time
my jailer said at least that i could rhyme

well, you used to be a dancer at the amber light café
and we’d make love until morning or until our strength gave way
and then one day, a movie man, he caught your show one night
your video is all i’ve got tonight

hey friends, raise a glass
cop a smile, and don’t be crass
well, the world may end tomorrow if jesus dims the lights
we’re all that we’ve got tonight

well richard was the first, they say he’ll never finish last
and he’s got so many trophies on a shelf behind the glass
and i’ve seen him drink more beer i’d say than any man i’ve seen
then go home to his kathy to have his irish creme

oh and kenny was a diver and a fisher of the sea
and he caught so many lobster in his life so wild and free
and then one day, roxanne came and stole his heart away
now they swim down in the tropics and eat lobster every day

hey friends, raise a glass
cop a smile, and don’t be crass
well, the world may end tomorrow if jesus dims the lights
we’re all that we’ve got tonight
well jimmy was an architect and jack of every trade
and he named all of his buildings after women he had laid
and his finest work of art he called his “cindy in the wood”
cause they’d go down to the forest and she’d make him feel so good

well chris and sean got married, moved to florida late last year
and soon they found that they couldn’t keep up with the beer
rumrunners, gin and tonics seemed to flow all through the night
but the motion of the ocean and the lotion, well it never felt so right

hey friends, raise a glass
cop a smile, and don’t be crass
well, the world may end tomorrow if jesus dims the lights
we’re all that we’ve got tonight

through my ordinary life i’ve seen extraordinary things
like angel’s point in zion and the majesty of spring
and i’ve seen a lot of pain too, and it saddens me to say
that it takes a little hardship to feel luckier today

well i strolled under some arches and i’ve burned some bridges too
and i’ve sailed across the oceans and i’ve soared through skies of blue
and which method got me here depended how much sh*t i was in
but my family, friends, and lovers always got me through the thick and thin

hey friends, raise a glass
cop a smile, and don’t be crass
well, the world may end tomorrow if jesus dims the lights
we’re all that we’ve got
hey friends, raise a glass
cop a smile, and don’t be crass
well, the world may end tomorrow if jesus dims the lights
we’re all that we’ve got tonight

(yo, yo, what’s up ya’ll, this is joe slaphappy from philly. kick it, james!)
