Kevin’s Drinking Through

Songtext

[Verse 1] Kevin woke up hollerin’, “Everybody fuck off!” Staring at Godzilla thighs on a motel pay-per-view box He hadn’t touched a drop of water since the county fair Small little waiter with a tray, asking, “Sir, are you there?” [Pre-Chorus] He said, “Bring me something stronger, And don’t ask me what it costs—” Ray Ray texted, “Kevin, buddy, You are getting lost.” [Chorus] Kevin, tell ’em all to fuck off, let the whole town know Looking at them monster thighs while the cheap beer flows No water in the cooler, no brakes beneath the wheel Small little nuts and a big bad habit nobody could heal He turned twenty-one and thought the night would never end Now every phone says “new account,” every text goes out again Ray Ray, if you’re listening, don’t answer when he calls Kevin’s drinking through the warning signs, daring death to come collect it all [Verse 2] Right when he turned twenty-one, he found a bottle’s glow Said, “I’m only celebrating,” then he never let it go He made a hundred different usernames, a hundred different lies Sent “I’m fine” to every number underneath those bloodshot eyes [Pre-Chorus] The small little waiter sighed, “Sir, please sit down and breathe.” Kevin raised a glass to Godzilla, Then laughed until his sleeve was wet with grief. [Chorus] Kevin, tell ’em all to fuck off, let the whole town know Looking at them monster thighs while the cheap beer flows No water in the cooler, no brakes beneath the wheel Small little nuts and a big bad habit nobody could heal He turned twenty-one and thought the night would never end Now every phone says “new account,” every text goes out again Ray Ray, if you’re listening, don’t answer when he calls Kevin’s drinking through the warning signs, daring death to come collect it all [Bridge] One account for Monday, one for Tuesday night One to say he loved you, one to start a fight Ray Ray wrote, “Come home, man, this ain’t a movie scene” But Kevin chased the bottle past the place he could be seen [Final Chorus] Kevin, tell ’em all to fuck off, but listen just once more Put the damn bottle down before it puts you on the floor Godzilla’s thighs can wait, the water’s cold and clear That small little waiter’s still got both hands around your beer You turned twenty-one, not invincible, not free And if you keep on drinking, you’re gonna fucking die on me Ray Ray, send the message, let it ring inside the walls Kevin, quit the disappearing act before nobody can call [Outro] Everybody fuck off—then Kevin whispered, “Please…” Ray Ray left the porch light on beside the empty keys.
