I’m drinking about you again, just like a friend who’s moved away
I’m drinking about you again, every weekend till I am okay
well I think I’ll be okay and I’m hoping you are okay

IDAYA, I like to pretend that I am a bitch
IDAYA, how hard rejection is to deal with
but I think I’ll deal with it, I’m learning to deal with it

always were a wise one
you never got drunk cuz you had to drive
now I’m wandering ‘round squares of grass
trying not to ask if you’ve had enough time
so pour me a bottle of wine [x2]

IDAYA, whiskey and gin, whatever he has
IDAYA, to help me begin to feel it has passed
when I got here, the tears they all passed, the lump in my throat, it has passed

IDAYA, again and again, nothing else to do
IDAYA, just like a friend who loves to love you
well I really love loving you and I’m hoping that you love you too

[chorus]

IDAYA, cliché images, a car’s mirror in rear view
IDAYA, this is the end of my song about you
never thought I could write about you, but I’m drunk and I’m high off of you

[chorus]

Drinking About You (Laundry Room Demo) - Melissa Schiller

woe is me, I'm sick on Halloween
I'm not getting drunk or high tonight
I'm not kissing nobody tonight
I am congested, getting pretty sick
my nose is runny and stuffy, I wanna die
I'm doing my laundry tonight

all I wanna do is play my instruments and sing high 
but I can't do any of that
I might as well write my four page essay 
that’s due on the day after Halloween
well isn’t that sad?

I'm waiting for people to get back from class 
cuz that’s what people do on Wednesdays
they wanna be good students, okay
I went with some friends to see Charlie Brown
cuz missing class should be alright today
I didn’t do the reading anyway

all I wanna do is watch psychological thrillers with my friends 
who also don't feel like partying
all I really need is my ukulele and candy and chamomile tea 
but I gotta finish my essay
