Goodbye Drug by The Mutton Birds Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1999

Goodbye was a drug I used to like
It keeps you up most of the night
Makes you sing and dance around
Makes you throw up on the ground
But you know it doesn't last too long
Another one comes when this one's gone

I drove out to the airport today
I thought I'd help you to get away
On the belt, your bags were gliding
I felt like a spare prick at a wedding
Another goodbye coming down
I guess this one's gonna knock me around

Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, I think I've had too much
Of the goodbye drug

I got you coffee from the machine
It was grey and it smelt like kerosene
But you took it and you left town
Along with everything that wasn't nailed down
What made you think that you need to
Go on and bite the hand that feeds you
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, I think I've had too much
Of the goodbye drug

Overhead, the big jets climb away
Right about now, you'll be on your way
In a garden in Northwest London
The principles that you abandoned
Are alive and well somehow
'Cause nothing you did can hurt me now

Goodbye was a drug I used to like
It keeps you up most of the night
Makes you sing and dance around
Makes you throw up on the ground
Steam rises from my plastic cup
I look up in the sky and I wish you luck

Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, I think I've had too much
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, good luck
Goodbye, I think I've had too much
Of the goodbye drug
