If there's one thing I can't stand
It's this bar and this cover band
Trying to fake their way through "Castles Made of Sand"
That's one thing I can't stand
If there's one thing I can't take
It's the sound that a woman makes
About five seconds after her heart begins to break
That's one thing I can't take
She should be home by now, but she ain't
And I shoulda gone by now, but I can't
'Cause one of my friends has taken her in
And given her codeine
One of my friends has taken her in
And given her codeine
Them eyes was big as stars
When I saw you behind the bar
I guess that's the way to keep on smilin' where you are
But, girl, them eyes was big as stars
It sounds funny when you say my name
It's like you're chewing on a foreign thing
And you won't get to sleep till dawn, if it don't rain
It sounds so funny when you say my name
It's this bar and this cover band
Trying to fake their way through "Castles Made of Sand"
That's one thing I can't stand
If there's one thing I can't take
It's the sound that a woman makes
About five seconds after her heart begins to break
That's one thing I can't take
She should be home by now, but she ain't
And I shoulda gone by now, but I can't
'Cause one of my friends has taken her in
And given her codeine
One of my friends has taken her in
And given her codeine
Them eyes was big as stars
When I saw you behind the bar
I guess that's the way to keep on smilin' where you are
But, girl, them eyes was big as stars
It sounds funny when you say my name
It's like you're chewing on a foreign thing
And you won't get to sleep till dawn, if it don't rain
It sounds so funny when you say my name
