I said I can't be leaving a moment too soon, I think there's something in the air
That takes a good vibration so pure and true and it makes you feel so in despair
So you fall into the temptation in contemplation of all your fears
While you drink that and you have your beer and hope it takes you far from here
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever knew
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever knew
Well I'm drinking my whisky and I have my beer it's the only thing I held so true
Seems my demons went askew but it's nothing new when it comes to talking me and you
Now caught at the bottom it's such a rush and my time has been abused
Knock-knock on the doorway of wanderlust but I only end up feeling blue
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever do
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever knew
Now that patience is a virtue that I done lost and the devil's friend has paid my due
Well that demon has a cost and he lives in check in each and every one of you
Well you're running, you're running, he'll run you down
Until your life is all but one big mess
It's up to you what you do when nobody's around and you're paying for all your best
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever do
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it'll all you ever knew
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it's all you ever knew
Temptation, fear, whisky and beer yes it'll all you ever knew
