Like a barbecue spoiled by a skunk
Or a garage sale that ain’t nothing but junk
Like a pair of jeans that never shoulda shrunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk

When I’m drunk, when I’m drunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk
Yeah when I get down to drinkin’, that’s when I start to thinkin’
I only think about you when I’m drunk

Like a college boy who knows he’s gonna flunk
Or a kid at camp fallin’ out of his bunk
Like Shaquille O’Neal missin’ on a dunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk

When I’m drunk, when I’m drunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk
Well it comes as no surprise, when I see those dark green eyes
I only think about you when I’m drunk

Like a Communist regime persecutin’ a monk
Or a refugee on a raft that sunk
Like a millionaire executive tossed in a trunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk

When I’m drunk, when I’m drunk
I only think about you when I’m drunk
Well I probably shouldn’t complain, but there’s a little part of my brain
That makes me think about you when I’m drunk

Yeah your memory’s reinstated when I’m intoxicated
I only think about you when I’m drunk
Yeah when I get down to drinkin’, that’s when I start to thinkin’
I only think about you when I’m drunk
