Glory Pour down
By Jared Lucas Nathanson

Yes it's true I like a Scotch
But just wait and just watch
my behavior

And if the bottle makes you
do what you wouldn't do
if the bottle makes you waiver

then get the hell away from me
cause I can't be
your God-Damn Savior

I've already drove that boat aground
when I let Glory Pour down

Let me tell you a story
Her name was Glory
and she hurt me

Brought me right to the end
Just by playing pretend
we are worthy

we laid together one fall night
her silk dress felt so nice against her body

but she sure did like to drink
and I didn't care to think
When she poured down

Glory Pour it down
Glory Pour it down
Hey sweetheart,
what do you need
need to calm down
Glory Pour it down

Then one morning in bed
she suddenly said
"I will Hurt You."
But it wasn't a threat
It was said with regret
Like a virtue

Catatonic that night
she pulled tears from her eyes
while laughing

her laugh cracked when she was dry
Like a well muted cry,
Glory pour down!

Glory Pour it down
Glory Pour it down
Hey sweetheart,
what do you need
need to calm down
Glory Pour it down

We went on just this way
till we fell into may
and she got tested

Double negative my friend
Our guilt bonds would end
as we un-nested

But the true legacy
That she'd give to me
was still untested

She slept with my three best friends (x3)

They broke my heart

Glory Pour it down
Glory Pour it down
Hey sweetheart,
what do you need
need to calm down
Glory Pour it down

One more time!

Glory Pour it down
Glory Pour it down
Hey sweetheart,
what do you need
need to calm down
Glory Pour it down
