The Devil Boys' Last Hurrah Lyrics

Certain drives in places
Remind me of friends gone by
And along this stretch
Of lonely highway
There lived a caste of miscreants
In my experience, unequaled
And to their story
There'll never be a sequel

There are never enough drugs
There is never enough time
Someone always comes up with the money
Someone always spills the wine
We are not driving through New Jersey
And I won't be home tonight
And if I don't get any sleep
At least I won't get in a fight

At the devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah

The good boat Drunken Promise
Took them anywhere they needed to be
They wasted everything in their path
Including unfortunate me
I knew they needed me
And they'd certainly paid for it
So I let it go
And in the meantime the devil boys
Put on one hell of a show

It was the devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah

I tried being philosophical
But fuck that, I'll get upset
They were the most
Earnest boys I ever met
Floundering around in
Their goddamn drunken boat
In that sea of trouble
Man, it couldn't hardly float

It was the devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah
The devil boys' last hurrah

I tried being philosophical
But fuck that, I'll get upset
They were the most
Earnest boys I ever met
Floundering around in their drunken boat
In that sea of trouble couldn't hardly float
They were underprepared and underage
And unaware of the mess they made

Sometimes you miss your friends
But are perfectly okay with never seeing them again
