The Lacs Lyrics

Tylenol"
Cause it's a, a long fall when you're six foot tall.
They said I had a ball but don't remember it all.
Keep bangin my head up against the wall, wishin that I had a king sized Tylenol, Tylenol, Tylenol.
Too much alcohol, I need a king sized Tylenol.
Budd it up, hammer down, once again passed out.
I told myself it wouldn't happen again.
Just a few cold lights and I'm through for the night, but I go to drinkin whiskey and gin.
Shortly after that I go to losin my memories.
The ladies say that I can get extremely friendly.
The problem is that I don't know my limit at all and there's usually nothing there to help me cushion my fall.
It goes bang, bang beating my head cause it hurts.
I need a bed and I don't even wanna hear the word work.
Shut the curtains, cut the lights, and hit me up tomorrow night.
Leanin on and let it be the hangover recipe.
Cause it's a, a long fall when you're six foot tall.
They said I had a ball but don't remember it all.
Keep bangin my head up against the wall, wishin that I had a king sized Tylenol, Tylenol, Tylenol.
Too much alcohol, I need a king sized Tylenol.
The sunshine woke me up, I fell asleep in my truck.
I guess I had a heavy foot, I must have blowed the motor up.
The Jager smell is all around, open the door, into the ground.
My stomach's makin awful sounds, my ole head's spinnin round.
Now doctor, doctor tell me what I did wrong.
Man, I only tried to sing every Merle Haggard song.
I looked at him, he looked at me, I filled my cup a time or three.
Havin fun with Jimmy Bean and then I lost my memory.
I lost my knife, don't you know, I bought it down in Mexico.
I won't forget that crazy trip from three spring breaks ago.
To nights we won't remember and to friends we won't forget.
I need some Tylenol quick so I can do it all again.
Cause it's a, a long fall when you're six foot tall.
They said I had a ball but don't remember it all.




Keep bangin my head up against the wall, wishin that I had a king sized Tylenol, Tylenol, Tylenol.
Too much alcohol, I need a king sized Tylenol.
