Shots-By El Majesty Belly up to the bar For a gunshot of liquor A bullet of beer A syringe of lager A needle of clear Two for one special Scream loud in his ear Make it official You want him to hear Display tension in your tendons Go on make a fist Get ready for your injection To lose all consciousness Try the mind eraser With a cloud nine chaser Bling bling shooter The blood of Satan A buttery nipple And the boner maker The cock sucking cowboy And the undertaker Mix your poison Imbibe your death Watch your invincibility Take its last breath Go home with the stranger
Caught in your glass The eyes that you’re staring at Will soon be the past Let the ether and grain Salt and sugar strains Work into your veins Like a shot to your brain Pour your resistance in a cup Lose inhibitions Get fucked up Drink degradation Tomorrow won’t come Living the life That is already done This shots on me First shot is always free Here give it a shot It will cost u eventually Hit by cupids arrow Somewhere deep in the marrow As he releases his elixir And it mixes with my system As we tussle in the bed So far gone out of head As we cum alcohol On the sheets
In my walls Getting sleep Dreaming deep About a somewhere that is nowhere here at all. Morning reach As we feel for our dignity In the darkness of our shame We were not quite ourselves And the alcohols to blame We don’t quit We are resilient And the night it fears last call Sip it quick Make it a habit Because the night wants you to fall. So use your tips For another hit Of a shot you want to taste Let it kiss Your quivering lips As you design your sudden fate.
