Verse 1:
[G][E] I was running through the summer rain
Trying to catch the evening train
And kill that old familiar pain
Weaving through my tangled brain
But wh[D]en i tipped my bottle back
I smacked into a cop i didn't s[G]ee
Verse 2:
[E] That policeman said mister cool
If you ain't drunk then you're a fool
I said if that's against the law
Tell me why i never saw
A m[D]an locked in that jail of yours
Who wasn't just as low down poor as m[G]e
Chorus1:
W[G]ell that was when someone turned out the l[Am]ights[C]
And [D]i wound up in jail to spend the n[G]ight
And dream of all the wine and lonely g[C/G]irls[Am]
In th[D]is best of all possible w[G]orlds
Verse 3:
[E] Well i woke up next morning
Feeling like my head was gone
And like my thick old tongue was lickin'
Something sick and wrong
And i t[D]old that man i'd sell my soul
For something wet and cold as that old c[G]ell
Verse 4:
[E] That kindly jailer grinned at me
All eaten up with sympathy
Then poured himself another beer
And came and whispered in my ear
If b[D]ooze was just a dime a bottle boy
You couldn't

Objection!
What about snakes?
PANGLOSS:
Snakes!
'Twas snake that tempted mother Eve
Because of snake we now believe
That though depraved
We can be saved
From hellfire and damnation
(Because of snake's temptation!)
If snake had not seduced our lot
And primed us for salvation
Jehova could not pardon all
The sins that we call cardinal
Involving bed and bottle!
ALL
Now onto Aristotle!

All men are brothers!

Paragraph Lyric
I was runnin' thru the summer rain, try'n' to catch that evenin' train
And kill the old familiar pain weavin' thru my tangled brain
When I tipped my bottle back and smacked into a cop I didn't see
That police man said, "Mister Cool, if you ain't drunk, then you're a fool."

And dream of all the wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds.
Well, I woke up next mornin' feelin' like my head was gone
And like my thick old tongue was lickin' something sick and wrong

Then poured himself another beer and came and whispered in my ear,
"If booze was just a dime a bottle boy, you couldn't even buy the smell"
I said, "I knew there was something I liked about this town."
But it takes more than that to bring me down, down, down.
'Cause there's still a lo
