Lyrics
So, let me begin with
Introduction, starting the narrative
Laying down the state we're in
Describing the current situation or condition
With the pills and the gin
Mentioning substances (pills and gin) possibly linked to the state of mind
I can handle 'bout anything
Expressing resilience or capability to handle challenges
But this is out of control
Feeling that the situation is getting out of control
Do what you like to me
Willingness to endure personal hardship for someone else
But please, don't hurt her man
Plea to avoid causing harm to a specific person
'Cause I will hit you, hard as I can
Warning of potential retaliation if harm occurs
But that ain't really the plan you see
Clarifying that retaliation is not the preferred course of action
Please, don't get me wrong
Requesting understanding or not to misinterpret
But you can't knock
Challenging the criticism of actions not yet taken
What you've never done
Emphasizing the importance of experience before judgment
It ain't always fun
Acknowledging that life isn't always enjoyable
But at least you'll be living some
Advocating for a meaningful existence despite challenges
So get the fuck off my case
Expressing frustration and a desire for freedom from judgment
Yeah, she is a legend, man
Acknowledging someone as remarkable or iconic
I don't doubt that
Confirming belief in the person's legendary status
And I will screw it up
Anticipating failure or mistakes in dealing with the remarkable person
I'm used to that
Acceptance of being accustomed to making mistakes
As the radio plays
Listening to the radio as a backdrop to life
You can't change this way of life
Assertion that one cannot change their way of life
You can't change this state of mind
Stating the persistence of a particular state of mind
