LYRICS
.
I was sittin' in a chair at the H&R Block
Some bean countin' pencil pusher runnin' up the clock
Said "I'd tallied up your numbers through the end of the year
Son, you spent a small fortune on liquor and beer."
.
And I said "It's cheaper than a shrink, you don't have to think.
You just pour and drink. Yea 16.50 for a bottle of Jack,
No pouring out your heart to some high dollar quack.
Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done,
And gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun".
.
And it's cheaper than a shrink, you don't have to think
You just pour and drink, yea it's cheaper than a shrink.
.
Now me and her had this little problem between us
Tryin' to bridge the gap between Mars and Venus
She said "Honey, I think we need to see a marital councilor".
I said "All we need to do is slam a case of 12 ouncers.
.
Cause it's cheaper than a shrink, you don't have to think
You just pour and drink. 'Bout 18 bucks will get you four 6 packs.
No pouring out your heart to some high dollar quack.
Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done,
And gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun".
.
And it's cheaper than a shrink, you don't have to think
You just pour and drink, and it's cheaper than a shrink.
.
If liquor prices soar as high as gasoline,
Then I'da quit drinkin' when I was 19.
It's the oldest, most proven form of therapy
The best thing about it far as I can see is that it's
.
Cheaper than a shrink, mmm you don't have to think
You just pour and drink, and it's cheaper than a shrink.
Oh you just pour and drink and it's a whole lot cheaper
Than some big town clock hound, drag it down shrink.
