Malt Liquor Tastes Better When You’ve Got Problems Less Than Jake

[Verse 1]
And I've been so busy trying
That I only wound up living
Weekend to weekend
Getting by just simply trying
And I should be out looking for a job
But only wind up heading for a stiff drink
But left with nothing else but to think
It's time to stumble home

[Chorus]
So I say hello to wasted hours, whoa oh-oh
And I say bottoms up to better days

[Verse 2]
And I've been so busy denying
That I always wound up living
Paycheck to paycheck
Scraping by, but hardly trying
What will it take to get me out of bed?
When half the check goes to rent
The other half goes to debt
I should be out looking for another job
Instead, I stumble home, I stumble home

[Chorus]
And so I say hello to wasted hours, whoa oh-oh
And I say bottoms up to better days
