about

This is a song that didn't make the album, but we still like it. It's about Fred Friction's legendary bars (particularly Frederick's Music Lounge and Fred's Six Feet Under).

Things sometimes got out of hand. True story.

Thanks to Nick Gusman and Daniel Moody.

lyrics

It's been a lousy day
We all decide to go and play,
We all went drinking down at Freddy's bar last night

We drank and laughed and cursed,
We should have eaten something first
Things went from bad to worse at Freddy's bar last night

Krane punched a concrete wall,
Jess got locked in a toilet stall,
I kicked a cowboy in the balls,
Yipee-ki-yo-ki-yay

We had our asses beat by martial artists in the street,
I choked on the pickled beets at Freddy's bar last night

Fred cut us off at 10,
But we returned to drink again
We threw up on our friends,
Zippity-do-da-day

We had two tires go flat,
We took some drugs, imagine that,
I went home with some old bat from Freddy's bar last night
I went home with a rabid bat from Freddy's bar last night
