Barenaked Ladies
Tabbed by William Low

        This is my guess at Alcohol. I got tired of requesting
this thing over and over again so I figured I might as well take
a shot at it. Again this MIGHT not be correct. But its as close as
I get.

Oh Alcohol, would you please forgive me

though I cannot love myself I'll use something else

        Bridge:

I thought that alcohol was just for those with nothing else to do

I thought that drinking just to get drunk was a waste of precious booze

But now I know that there's a time and there's a place where I can
choose

To walk the fine-line between self control and self abuse.
