Bourbon for Breakfast
Words & Music: Steven Wells
Drunk Mosquitoes BMI 2017

My eyes are blurry my mind is numb
Ceiling spins and the wall paint runs
With every thought my blood turns cold
Love’s hand is a stranglehold

That serves bourbon for breakfast in bed
With a side of stale cigarettes
As I lie here alone and think of you gone
Havin’ bourbon for breakfast in bed

Dirty dishes pile up in the sink
Cupboards are bare garbage stinks
Dust so thick I could write down your name
But I’m gonna lie here ‘n drink all day

And have bourbon for breakfast in bed
With a side of stale cigarettes
As I lie here alone and think of you gone
Havin’ bourbon for breakfast in bed
I got bourbon for breakfast in bed
With a side of stale cigarettes
As I lie here alone and think of you gone
Havin’ bourbon for breakfast in bed

Well I shuffled the cards played the game
But all the dealer dealt was pain
So when that sun comes out to shine
You’ll find me hiding behind these blinds

And have bourbon for breakfast in bed
With a side of stale cigarettes
As I lie here alone and think of you gone
Havin’ bourbon for breakfast in bed
I got bourbon for breakfast in bed
With a side of stale cigarettes
As I lie here alone and think of you gone
Havin’ bourbon for breakfast in bed

Na Na Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na Na Na
Drink it up, Drink It up
Bourbon for breakfast, Bourbon for breakfast in bed
Na Na Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na Na Na
Drink it up, Drink It up
Bourbon for breakfast, Bourbon for breakfast in bed
Na Na Na Na Na Na - Na Na Na Na Na Na
Drink it up, Drink It up
Bourbon for breakfast, Bourbon for breakfast
Bourbon for breakfast again
