Lyrics:
SITTIN AT THE BACK PORCH TABLE
WATCHING AS THE SUN GOES DOWN
DOING A LITTLE THINKING
DOING A LITTLE DRINKING
SWIRLING MY GLASS AROUND
LITTLE TIN CAN OF IRRITATION
RATTLING IN MY LONELY BRAIN
AINT NOBODY NEAR ME
NOBODY TO HEAR ME
PERFECT MOMENT TO COMPLAIN
LATELY EVERYTHING’S BEEN CHANGING
CHANGING NOT FOR THE GOOD
PEOPLE GETTING CRAZY
OBSTINATE AND LAZY
WASHINGTON TO HOLLYWOOD
BUT HERE’S THE THING THAT’S GOT ME BOTHERED
REALLY OUGHTTA BE A CRIME
THEYRE MAKING WINE BOTTLES SMALLER ALL THE
TIME
DON’T KNOW WHEN I FIRST TOOK NOTICE
MIGHTA BEEN A YEAR OR TWO
MIGHTA BEEN THE DAY SHE PACKED HER BAGS
AND HEADED OFF WITH GOD KNOWS WHO
I TOOK UP WITH MY BEST OLD BUDDY
CANYON ROAD PINOT GRIS
USED TO TAKE ONE TO GET THE JOB DONE
NOW ITS TAKING TWO OR THREE
LATELY EVERYTHING’S BEEN CHANGING
CHANGING NOT FOR THE GOOD
PRESIDENTS AND FELONS
STUPIDER THAN MELONS
WASHINGTON TO HOLLYWOOD
BUT HERE’S THE THING THAT’S SUCH A RIPOFF
REALLY OUGHTTA BE A CRIME
THEYRE MAKING WINE BOTTLES SMALLER ALL THE
TIME
SMALLER AND SMALLER
TAKES MORE AND MORE
LESS ANESTHESIA
IN THE SAME SIZE POUR
FIRST THEY HAD ME HOODWINKED
THEN I WAS CONFUSED
THEN I WAS BAMBOOZLED
NOW I’M JUST BAMBOOZED
OUT OF MY GOURD
HERE’S THE THING THAT’S SUCH A RACKET
REALLY OUGHTTA BE A CRIME
THEYRE MAKING WINE BOTTLES SMALLER
LESS SAUCE FOR THE DOLLAR
WINE BOTTLES SMALLER ALL THE TIME
