Early to bed and early to rise
Shake out the cobwebs and sleep from your eyes
Get your ass out of bed and get in line
Get out into the world and scrape up a dime
One thing I’ve learned since I’ve been alive
A long life ain’t gonna be an easy ride
You gotta get a job if you want income
Cause the beer tastes better when the works all done
Give it your all from nine to five
You gotta give it some drive if you wanna survive
That’s why it’s called work you know it ain't called fun
Cause the beer tastes better when the works all done
Cold cuts through the depths of December
Darkness devours makes it hard to remember
Change comes quick tell me are you ready
For when summer comes in hot and heavy
No way of getting out of this heat wave
When it’s forty degrees celsius in the shade
We burnt our backs in the blazing sun
Cause the beer tastes better when the works all done
Give it your all from eight to four
You gotta get out the door before they give you some more
That’s why it’s called work you know it ain't called fun
Cause the beer tastes better when the works all done
You gotta give it your all from seven to three
You gotta roll up your sleeves until it's time to leave
That’s why it’s called work you know it ain't called fun
And it’s all worth it when the sweat starts to run
You gotta give it your all from day to night
You gotta put up a fight until you get it right
That’s why it’s called work you know it ain't called fun
Cause the beer tastes better when the works all done

Coupla' Sixers

End of the week, end of the road
I've been on a losing streak, I've been feelin’ so low
I need a release, I need it quick
Coupla' sixers ought to do the trick
Call up my brother Danny on the phone
“Gonna round up the boys, gonna get it goin’"
Head out to the bush for a bit of fun
Coupla' sixers oughta' get ‘er done
Cause when it hits your lips well I can guarantee
Howlin' at that big ol' moon will set you free
Shotgun bong and chugging wars
Six full beers then six full more
We won't stop until the drink is done
Ricky boy’s looking like he’s all in
Crackin’ a smile with his shit eatin' grin
Pops another top, twelfth of the night
Coupla' sixers and he's doin' alright
I’ll drink a lager then I’ll drink an ale
Forget about my love that went stale
Lean on friends in tough times
Coupla' sixers oughta' blow your mind
Cause when it hits your lips well I can guarantee
Howlin' at that big ol' moon will set you free
Shotgun bong and chugging wars
Six full beers then six full more
We won't stop until the drink is done
Well I'm feeling a bit ill
Coupla sixers and I've had my fill
Sometimes the world just feels too real
Coupla sixers to help me heal
Cause when I get that feeling you can’t stop me
Howlin at that big ol' moon will set you free
Shotgun bong and chugging wars
Six full beers then six full more
We won’t stop until the drink is done

Six Beer Loneliness

I've got a six beer loneliness
It's creepin' on stronger this time
Well I don't know where my friends went
They all left me
Tired, drunk, and alone
And I don’t know if I can shake
These feelings so blue
So I put em' in a bottle
But I am consumed
By my fear and greed
My own inner enemies
They flow through my brain
And it drives me insane
But these thoughts I can't tame
I've got a six beer loneliness
It's pullin' me further on down
Well, I guess it's hard just to move on
When you're on my mind
All of the god damn time
And I don't know if I can take
These memories so true
Cause when I drink to forget
I only forget that we're through
So I'll call you up late one night
You'll feel better about yourself
While I'll keep hating my life
But my dear I'm not right
I've got a six beer loneliness
I wish I could share it with you
