Most nights it just takes like a smile and shake And I believe in the bodies And I've met with the blood I went with Hallelujah and she didn't say a thing She just wiped at her nose and then she winked And I've been with the cops And I've been with the squares And I went with Saint Deborah of defeat and depression She put her hand up on my shoulder and then she just kinda stood there She said call me 212 Margarita Because I'm salty and I'm sour and I've had too much tequila And I've been with short tempers And I get behind the sharp knives I believed the shots in the distance to be cold hard facts Ringing out against the radios and the speaker stacks And I've been with the hoodrats I've been with all the hangers-on I stayed out 'till dawn with a raunchy magazine launch I hit the open bar and I got myself all turned on Calling 612 Bloody Mary Because she's nice and she's spicy and she's my only sure shot at recovery She said call me 612 Bl-argarita Because I'm green and I'm misleading and I've had too much tequila Leave a message at the Motel 6 And if you're feeling better We could maybe get together If you even want to see me anymore We'll be in town on a three night stint And if you're really sick Maybe we can get some soup together I know we've been sick before And I believe in the bodies And I believe in the blood I believe on salt along the rims of the glasses 'Cause that makes us thirsty And when we drink then we all fall in love And I believe in the bodies And I believe in the blood I believe in the salt on the rims of the glasses 'Cause that makes us thirsty And when we drink then we all fall in love
