It's been awhile, and looking back I keep losing track of how long it's been And who left who again, and since when The little hand is on the one And I have just begun to s** on a lime And start learning to tell time I started feeling low a beer ago And in about a gin and tonic or two I'll be a blue hawaiin away from crying for you Two martinis from now it won't matter much anyhow I started to overflow two martinis ago I couldn't last one gimlet more But I've still got time for a sob and a sigh And one more whisky and rye just went by The little hand is on the two I wonder what I'll do if it gets to three
How many teardrops will that be? I bow my head and pray to be ok And in a half a manhattan or so I'll have two our fathers and one bloody mary to go Two martinis hence it might start to make some sense I unsealed my fate one fifth of bourbon too late The little hand is on the three How many teardrops will it be Till I collapse and your memory's under wraps? There's so much getting through to catch up to I'm still four white russians behind I feel a Jim Beam shining on me I might be losing my mind In a teardrop or two it'll be time to get over you And I'll figure out just how two martinis from now
