I had to stop telling people this song was about a bar fight I was in because Ben always had to clarify that said bar fight was, in fact, a D&D bar fight. In related news, I tried introducing it once by shouting "Who here plays D&D?!" I've never heard the Replay so quiet, which is bullshit because I've gotten a LOT of you talking dice. Nerds gotta represent.
Verse 1:
I've been breathing fire all night
I'm not sure how it happened, but it seems I got myself into a fight
maybe I had one too many drinks
Or maybe i stood up on the table and started screaming that she left me and this place is gonna burn
well, it's unimportant now
All we need's a hasty exit, through the window oughta do it
and that's one more roadside town
where we won't be stopping anytime soon
and all I've left to ask of you is
won't you take
a chance on me
Chorus:
and it's 1, 2, 3, 4, kick the door down
5, 6, 7, 8 wake the whole town
by the time it's 9, 10, 11 we'll
be long gone, in search of somewhere
else to rest our weary limbs
with hosts that we've yet to offend
in times like these I feel so free
come take a chance and follow me.
Verse:
It happens every year
I get the urge to travel, set my sights on parts unknown and close my eyes
That's how I wound up here
Well tag along or stay behind, but, either way, heed my advice
it's unimportant how
you react to situations when affected by libations
if you know a quick way out
so sit down, start taking notes, I'll show you
one more time how to pursue
a life unchained
just you wait
(chorus)
Bridge:
And now I've shown you all I can
you'll have to face the rest unplanned
But, hell, that's half the
fun and games have just begun
for you now that your training's done
it's time to cause a scene
