Spring Break
Spring Break Reflections: A Journey from Wild Nights to Life's Lessons
Lyrics
Went down in the 80's to flirt with some ladies booked my hotel for the week
Travelled to the 80s to socialize with women, booked a hotel for the week.
Rode in a van with a spray tan I was looking pretty sleek
Rode in a van with a spray tan, feeling stylish.
First stop Elbo Room chicas in full bloom somebody handed me a bong
Arrived at Elbo Room where lively girls caught his attention, someone offered him a bong.
I'm in Fort Lauderdale bring me a cocktail what could possibly go wrong
In Fort Lauderdale, anticipating a cocktail and wondering what could go wrong.
Down on spring break a total mistake
Expressing regret about spring break being a mistake.
Never make it out alive
Fears not surviving the experience.
I ordered a double and was headed for trouble
Ordered a double drink, foreseeing trouble since arrival.
From the moment that I arrived
Trouble anticipated from the moment of arrival.
The next thing I know woke up on skid row hippies and junkies all around
Woke up on skid row, surrounded by hippies and junkies, with a missing wallet and police sounds.
Was just before dawn my wallet was gone with blaring police car sounds
Realization just before dawn about the dire situation.
Everyone scattered my clothes in tatters "Hey punk you got some ID?"
Chaos and confrontation with authorities demanding identification.
Put me in cuffs with some other street tuffs like a dreg of society
Arrested and placed with others in a societal outcast category.
Down on spring break a total mistake
Reflecting on spring break as a regretful error.
Got on the wrong side of the law
Finding oneself on the wrong side of the law.
Stuck in this jail piss in a tin pail
Imprisoned, forced to urinate in a tin pail.
And a guy with no hands just a claw
Describing a fellow inmate with no hands, only a claw.
It's thirty years later in the land of the gator now I'm a just a bit more tame
Reflecting on life 30 years later in Florida, having mellowed.
Had to clean up my act after my third heart attack things they just aren't the same
Changed lifestyle after a third heart attack, acknowledging things aren't the same.
Cut down on my drinking after I started tinkling somewhat uncontrollably
Reduced drinking due to uncontrollable urination.
Now I wear a big diaper see a candy striper sho changes me like a baby
Wearing a diaper and needing assistance like a baby.
Down on spring break a total mistake
Reflecting on spring break as a significant mistake in life.
You wouldn't believe it if you saw
Expressing disbelief at the current situation if one were to witness it.
Used to dive off the railing now my kidneys are failing
Contrasting past daring actions with current health issues, particularly kidney failure.
Eat my dinner through a straw
Describing the difficulty of eating, resorting to using a straw.
