Tequila Sunrise
Tequila in my blood, lust on my mind.
Where am I at, where is a sign?
Another dawn of delusion, who lured me here?
No one around, no one to overhear.
The bed looks empty but I smell of sex.
My head is hurting, so hungover, so hexed?
Why cant I wake in my own bed.
Lone in a peculiar place instead.
I see the tequila on the bedside.
I take a shot to calm my insides.
I lay back and close my eyes.
When am I gonna mature and get wise.
Why do I party with strange men alone.
I guess I like living in the dangerzone.
So as I lay down and try to doze.
I spy someone slowly waking and I arose.
I say good morning and look beyond.
The man just winks and says ¿Qué onda?
I know where I’m at now, I should of known.
I woke up over the border in Mexico!
