AS GOOD AS IT GETS

Playin' shinny after a bottle of Jack
don't make you no younger but it sure takes you back.
The usual gang talkin' trash and takin' bets
on a sunny afternoon, its as good as it gets.

I know, I know what I don't know,
ain't no point in holding on so I just let go.
Let go, let go, dance through the night,
goin' round and round til you're feelin' all right

Ain't nobody hirin' so why even try,
whistle at the girls as they parade by.
Nothin' else to do but wander down the road
get so effin' bored I think I might explode.

Let go, let go, dance through the night,
goin' round and round til you're feelin' all right.
All right, all right, reap what you sow,
'cause nothin' means nothin' as far as I know.

Break out the guitars and sing an old song,
don't give a damn if we got the words wrong.
Twenty brown bottles lyin' on the floor,
pitch in your cash boys we got to get more.

All right, all right, reap what you sow,
'cause nothin' means nothin' as far as I know.
I know, I know what I don't know,
ain't no point in holding on so I just let go.

This crazy life will be the end of me yet,
each passing day just puts you further in debt.
Guess I always knew there'd be days like this:
"Suspended animation, a state of bliss."

I know, I know what I don't know,
ain't no point in holding on so I just let go.
Let go, let go, of all your regrets,
on a sunny afternoon, its as good as it gets..

sounds like a song
living in bliss, that's what
this makes me vision

peace
