At the $5.99 buffet
In Reno on Thanksgiving Day
Nobody seemed to care
Why anyone else was there
Me and my buddy Jay
Watched bad cover bands play
Got little drinks for free
Kept betting on twenty-three
We got drunk
We got sad
I met a girl who said she could save me
She said, "I am a hug
I wrap around you and I scrub
You're made of dirt, my dear
I scrub until you disappear
That's what absolution means"
You put a dollar in a slot machine
Three triple bars came up
We won six hundred bucks
We got stoned
We had s**
I dreamt that I was Evel Knievel
We got stoned
We had s**
I dreamt that I was Evel Knievel
Some of this true
Some of this better
We got drunk
We got sad
I wish a met a girl who said she could save me
We got stoned
Did not have s**
Really had that dream about Evel Knievel
