It's like a meditation when I'm drinking tea
With my sisters that I never even knew really
I'm trying really hard not to drink no more
But I want to drive the wagon through the store

My name is Paula Spencer
With the gob you can dispense sir
I don't need a drink or you to walk me home
Cause I'm old now and damnit I don't care

I stepped young into this world and I got married
I didn't know what I was doing no one can really
Thats when I started drinking with my husband see
And getting seven kind of [bad word] knocked out of me

I'd terrorize my children for their own booze
They didn't even [bad word] their ma to buy them shoes
And when the kids and me are happy now and times are good
I want to hold them but I don't think that I could

Life is like a box of stale chocolates
You can be sure of all the bleeding [bad word] you'll get
But now I'm working steady and its going fine
And I've yet to touch a single glass of wine

It's like a meditation when I'm drinking tea
With my sisters that I never even knew really
I shower my kids with love although they won't [bad word] me
But it's as good now as it's ever going to be
