Everyday  in Lunch in high school
 And all  my senior year,
 I'd drink my coca-cola with a touch  of everclear.
 I didn't have to study math, science  or history,
 I'd have a chemical flashback to jog  my memory.
 My junior year I swore I loved sweet  miss Sherry Ann
 One night I put some everclear in her dr.  pepper can.
 I thought  it would make her easy,
But  she took it pretty hard
 I took her home  and rang her doorbell,
 Left her laying  in the yard.
Tequila  dries me out,
And  beer just makes me fat,
Whiskey  makes me nauseous,
 Tell me who  the hell needs that.
If  you're thinkin' bout drinkin,
 The answer's  crystal clear,
 It's the invisible intoxicant,
It's  called everclear.
 Riff 1 X 2
I  remember my church picnic
 In the spring  of '89
 They had four fresh watermelons,
Sliced  right off the vine.
 When the bowed their heads
Giving  Grace for the food,
 I pulled out my bottle,
 And I soaked  them melons good.
 They never knew what hit em,
 When the potion  went to work,
 They had grandmas doing backflips,
 Grandpas looking  up their skirts.
 They were singing  hallelujah,
 And Willie  Nelson songs.
 My preacher said  it was the best dang picnic
 That the Baptists  have ever thrown.
Tequila  dries me out,
And  beer just makes me fat,
Whiskey  makes me nauseous,
 Tell me who  the hell needs that.
If  you're thinkin' bout drinkin,
 The answer's  crystal clear,
 It's the invisible intoxicant,
It's  called everclear.
 Play RIFF 1, 3 times
Well  now I'm drinking everclear,
 Thinking I'm king  of this whole world
 I'm bigger n badder than John Wayne,
Cooler  than Steve Earl.
Till  I wake up and I'm face  down in the hall,
 And I'm completely naked for a reason  I can't recall
I'm  kinda sorta thinkin that maybe  I met a chick
 Cause there is perfume in the air
 And there is lipstick  on my  neck
 Well I hope  that she was pretty,
 And I hope  that she was kind
Enough  to leave my clothes somewhere
 They're easy  to find
Tequila  dries me out,
And  beer just makes me fat,
Whiskey  makes me nauseous,
 Tell me who  the hell needs that.
If  you're thinkin' bout drinkin,
 The answer's  crystal clear,
 It's the invisible intoxicant,
It's  called everclear.
