Baby one breath away
I'll find the words to say
I'll sit and light the bong
I'll hold my hit in real long
I don't know if I can
Go up inside of you tonight
Oh Mary baby,
I could do it right

You've heard the line before
Oh Mary baby please don't think that I'm a whore
If you come home with me,
Turn off the lights and lock up the doors,
And start getting busy
I don't know if I can
Go so way up inside you tonight
Oh Mary baby,
Please don't fuss and fight

When we got to the pad
Mary baby started calling me her dad
And she gave me head
We could not find the damn bed
Fifteen years old plus one,
Hotter than a microwave oven
Oh Mary baby,
Your daddy is coming home.

(cheers and applause)

My place, is not a home
Don't make no difference
But I've found,
That I need a place to stay
Though disease was just the price I paid

Big Salty Tears
Is what I taste
As I drive
Past your house
Tonight
And all those break lights
That are in front of me
They make me
Want to get on tonight

"This is a Ziggens song by the way"

I'm at the age where I realize
The liquor store won't bring you back
I must be gettin' old
I'm at the drive-thru
And I'm making my face
All fat fat fat fat fat
Big Salty Tears

(Oo's and be-bops)

I'm at the age where I realize
Nothin' actually
Just do what I'm supposed to do
$2.17
Next window please please please please please
Big Salty Tears

(cheers and applause)

    General Comment:listening to brad's acoustic recordings makes me really miss when i was younger and me and my uncle would just sit back and chill with brad. the acoustic versions of his recordings just makes me think that he's walked into my uncle's pad to chill.
    it was so upsetting for my whole family when he died (even though i know my grandma was secretly glad because she figured it would make my uncle get sober)
    i'm just glad that we have recordings and stuff of him, it sometimes lessens the impact of reality to hear him talking and singing again, which is nice

    General Comment:It brings a tear to my eye when I think of how much music Brad had left to give that we'll never have the honor of hearing. Pure musical genius that never got a chance to peak...
