Shannon Lyrics
I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I wanna drag the river, drink myself dry, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I wanna make a scene, at the middle east, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
Holy moly, what you want me to do?
Don't accuse me of accusing you,
'cause that doesn't work
I'm sorry
but it doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh.
I just wanna be your pet, Shannon
I just wanna be your pet
I wanna howl your praises, sleep at your feet, oh
but I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon.
I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon
Come on Shannon, let's go wallow and rue
and you convinced me that your feelings are true,
but that doesn't work, oh
but that doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh
But I love you still
I love you still
I always will
I just wanna be your man, Shannon
I wanna be your right hand, Shannon
I wanna have your babies, take your last name
But I'm probably gonna just get drunk, Shannon
I'm gonna go get drunk, Shannon
I'm gonna go get drunk
I'm gonna go get drunk, oh
Tonight I'm gonna get drunk, Shannon
I wanna drag the river, drink myself dry, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
I wanna make a scene, at the middle east, oh
But I don't wanna be your friend, Shannon
Don't accuse me of accusing you,
'cause that doesn't work
I'm sorry
but it doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh.
I just wanna be your pet
I wanna howl your praises, sleep at your feet, oh
but I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon.
I don't wanna be your pup, Shannon
and you convinced me that your feelings are true,
but that doesn't work, oh
but that doesn't work
Oh, Shannon, oh
I love you still
I always will
I wanna be your right hand, Shannon
I wanna have your babies, take your last name
I'm gonna go get drunk, Shannon
I'm gonna go get drunk
I'm gonna go get drunk, oh
Tonight I'm gonna get drunk, Shannon

this song is gold
Instead of "Oh no, what you want me to do?", it should be "Holy moly, what..." And instead of "I wanna have your praises," its "I want to howl your praises."
Shannon you're smothering me.
Shannon you can have my backbone if you want.
Yeah fine, boss me around.
Shannon you're smothering me.
Shannon stop smothering me.
I can be a good man for you.
Shannon I love you.
(False promises)
Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna go down to drink with my buddies for an hour or so if that's okay.
(Spends the next 25 years drinking with his buddies for "an hour or so")
