Lyrics
The ferryman
Who takes me to my rest
Don't give a damn
Who's cursed or blessed
Anyway, I give him all my cash
Like some tragic hero
A lightning flash
Followed by a million zeros
I spent the last ten years
Trying to waste half an hour
Every drunk is that VIP
Who only lives inside a rope
Where they show you all the love
Make mine a bourbon and Coke
I’m not lying, Mr. Ferryman
I always make it home
Though my house is built on sand
Buried deep under the loan
I spent the last ten years
Trying to waste half an hour
I had that real good time
And in the dawn
I saw all the love in the bartender's yawn
So Mr. Ferryman,
Do you party where you’re from
Do you know where to go
When the party is done
I never been to hell
But they sure got my number
They squirm inside my shell
To bring me my slumber
It must suck, Mr. Ferryman,
To hear the vanities talk
About the lies they need
Just to walk the walk
I spent the last ten years
Trying to waste half an hour
