Old 97’s - “Barrier Reef”
I love the lyrics to this song:
The Empty Bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty.
Saw her sitting at the bar, you know how some girls are,
Always making eyes, well she wasn’t making eyes.
So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, “Hi there.”
“My name’s Stewart Ransom Miller, I’m a serial lady-killer.”
She said, “I’m already dead,” that’s exactly what she said.
Midnight came and midnight went
I thought I was the President
