Lyrics:
Three Advil and a coffee
Could cure whatever ailed me
In my twenties:
Sunlight loomed like a wall
(On a late morning after)
I woke up in a well
(They threw me a ladder)
I said “thank God for y’all
(I thought I was a goner”)
They said “we're happy to help
(At least ‘til you’re older)
Soon it won’t be last call
(That’s leaving you hammered)
It’ll be the plight of the world
(And the vanity of your efforts)
So keep your eye on the ball
(Your mind over matter)
And they’ll help find you a girl
(Sooner or later)
And when you fall down a well
(She’ll throw you a ladder)
And when the world goes to hell
(You can crawl out together)
Singing
‘Darling you’re my Advil
Darling you’re my coffee
In the bitter light of morning
Darling you’re my Advil
Darling you’re my coffee
In the bitter light of 2019
Everybody trying to do the right thing
If only for their own’”
So Darling be my Advil
Darling be my coffee
In the bitter light of morning
Darling be my Advil
Darling be my coffee
In the bitter light of 2019
Everybody’s trying to do the right thing
Who knows? It might get done
