Can't seem to make sense of things
Now, look at what you've offered me
It was firmly in your consequence
To you I trust this judgment

Cause you're smart like the fish that stays off the hook
Beautiful, like the words in a Thompson book
And your book draws one in, once you start, you have to finish

Now I see with clarity, it was always right in front of me
Lets go home and watch ...
And endings can come happily
If this is what tomorrow brings, we better get moving
If we're to catch the red eye, we better hail a taxi

It's times like these to go full throttle
But stop right here, please, and wait for me
When I come back with the whiskey
I think you'll thank me

Bad news from the bar
They send trouble from afar
And all we can do now, is board our escape pod and tune out
And sip strong, drink down
Try not to think about, soon after we sit down
Sleep, we'll find our eyes and drown the light out

It's times like these to go full throttle
But stop right here, please, and wait for me
When I come back with the whiskey
I think you'll thank me

Two, please, in plastic cups
Now, there's a man I can trust
Where ya headed stranger?
Right now it's home or bust
Take these drinks, I think you'll need 'em
The weather's shit and the new's been bad
Well, are they coming our way?
That's why this whiskey's our friend

It's times like these to go full throttle
But stop right here, please, and wait for me
When I come back with the whiskey
I think you'll thank me

It's times like these to go full throttle
But stop right here, please, and wait for me
When I come back with the whiskey
I think you'll thank me.
