Blueberry Boats (and Pink Elephants) Lyrics

as sure as the morning comes
your head hurts, but I'm the sick one?
slow down you might say something harmful
for me to feed on

blueberry boats, I dream of blueberry boats
but you just see pink elephants
I dream of blueberry boats

boy, take the hatchet from the devil
and bury it good
you've lived your life drunken with laughter
now what good are you?

The meaning of this song is really pretty straightforward. The person being sung about in the song frequently goes out and gets drunk. The term "pink elephant" refers to hallucinations that people might see in the hours after they've spent time with a lot of heavy drinking. The first verse makes a reference to frequent hangovers (as sure as the morning comes, your head hurts).
