The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
I’ll Drink to That
[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Standing stiff on a cliff and I'm not gonna leap
Checked out the water, but it's much too deep
No going back there's no turning around
So I'll stay here and wait, God, I hope that I'm found

[Verse 2]
My, my, my, my, my, my, my thoughts were in knots, but I couldn't get to sleep
Went up to the attic to see what to keep
Threw out the useless and now it's bone dry
But I still couldn't die and couldn't figure out why

[Pre-Chorus 1]
No way, no how
No what, what now?

[Chorus]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
[Verse 3]
The attic was empty and my eyes were shut
I had to do somethin', but I didn't know what
The darkness was nice, but it wasn't enough
The clock wasn't stoppin' so I had to get tough

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Get tough, get up
Get out, get tough!

[Chorus]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that

[Verse 4]
Got up, got out, and found out it was rainin'
The car lived then died, but I wasn't complainin'
Hell bent for action and it had to be out there
I walked then I ran, hopin' somethin' was somewhere
Before long, it didn't take long
This place came along and I ended up here
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
The place is packed, I needed that
The bottles cracked, I'm glad for that
A good night's rest? Forget about that
I feel alive in this dive, so I'll drink to that
