Something about the instructions got me thinking of "Cracker" so this is my attempt at a David Lowery type tune. Definitely not as clever or witty, and certainly missing that tasty lead guitar playing! As for the tune itself... ask yourself, what did our hero do to get himself locked up?
lyrics
My lawyers all advised me
My exes criticized me
Too drunk, too stubborn I ignored em all
Now I'm sitting pretty
In a cell in New York City
Licking wounds and still waiting for your call
Found stupid on the
Wrong side of the law
Guilty and stupid
Wrong side of the law
Tried to stop the drinking
But that just led to thinking
So I raised my glass and toasted to my defeat
The Whiskey kept me going
The money kept on flowing
Now I'm broke and hungover, should have gone to sleep
Found stupid on the
Wrong side of the law
Guilty and stupid
Wrong side of the law
I couldnt even tell you what it was I saw in her. O o
All the things just added up
Alone in here I've had enough
I guess I got what I deserve... But I'll learn
Maybe I'll even get outta here someday
