Kimya Dawson - The Beer Lyrics

2020 anyone?

heh heh

My 20s in a song

This is the absolute greatest song I have ever heard in my life.

My biggest fear. I wanna live the American dream, but will I make it? Or will I live like this?

This reminds me of this one month I had many, many years ago

I'm an alcoholic and this song is great to drink to.

Spelled Melissa Wrong!

i play this song every time i have beer for breakfast

I keep showing this song to people and mist hate it hahah. 2019 anyone?

This song is so dark because it sarcastically implies Happy endings aren't real and there is no real reward for surviving. Kimya Dawson is an amazing Lyricist

Beathfly spoken

this song always gets me crying like a baby, its just something i relate to so much

This song is incredibly sad, reminds me of 2008....But more importantly it reminds me of my mindset in 2008. A part of me wonders if some of these lyrics are unapologetic descriptions of actual events. For you see, whenever you are going through hell, it is really easy to be brazenly candid about lived events. You recount them exactly as they happened. The more outlandish these events seem, the better. Your reality is so crazy that is unbelievable to most. You speak the truth and everyone hears an allegory. A perfect disguise put in plain view. There are just too many specifics in this song for me to pass them off as clever lyrics...I know...I know what this is. And for those out there who can relate to this song....you know exactly what I am talking about.

Yep, still a good song.

This has some of the deepest and the most hilarious lyrics ever

I'm sure lots of people say this but i have never found a song that I can relate to more than this one. particularly "haunted by the ghost of the girl I used to be". I'm grateful to kimya Dawson for writing such honest music :)

Quirky indie girls think this is so deep

juno has a great soundtrack ✨😤🌟

i know the girl who sings this. she's literally one of the coolest and nicest moms ive ever met. me and her son are really good friends. i just want to know what's happened to her that caused her to write music like this

Kiva i think Kimya has a daughter. If i were to guess id say its either she was abused as a child or neglected by her parents. These two things are the major cause of depression in adults

this reminds me of watching children of the corn and napoleon dynamite with my family and it makes me cry because im feeling nostalgic

this really made my morning.

Dreams are fun, I don't want to wake up - those weirdos in the mall fountain

Cool as black ice👍

The beer I had for breakfast was a bottle of Mad Dog
And my 20/20 vision was 50 percent off
He said “Punch buggy red” and punched me right in my left eye
I said “Don’t you mean padiddle?” and I lit his house on fire
He came home on acid. I was holding his shotgun
I was dressed like Tina Turner in "Beyond Thunderdome."
He said “Don’t shoot.” I said, “I won’t. I love you, you’re my friend.”
I handed him my wig and shot myself in the head
Then I stuffed a box of tissues in the hole in my skull
I got in my Mazda, and I drove to the mall
I got a Big Johnson shirt and some silicone tits
When I pulled out the tissues they were covered with shit

And the beer I had for breakfast was a box of cheap white wine
The boombox on my shoulder was a box of clementines
I ate every single one without noticing the mold
You said, “You’re gross, my darling.” I said “No, I’m rock ‘n’ roll.”
Even though I’d never ever been in a band
I got “Kool As Black Ice” tattooed on my hand
And the Christians gave me comic books, as if I would be scared
Of burning in Hell while I was already there

And the beer I had for breakfast, Silver Bullet in the brain
And the beer I had for lunch was a bottle of Night Train
And the beer I had for dinner was my crazy neighbor’s pills
We had to sit down on skateboards just to make it down the hill
Then I peed my pants and you stole the groom’s cigar
And some old man made me watch him masturbate locked in his car
When I got back to the apartment you were face-down on the floor
You said “Don’t go to bed yet. Let’s go get a 64.”
And a fifth of peach schnapps and some warm Sunny D
And you said “Bottoms up!” just as I bottomed out
I tried to scream “fuck you” but blood was pouring out my mouth
Evan Dando never planned on telling you the truth
And your Leonardo I.D. card is your fountain of youth
You can be a teenager for your whole fucking life:
Just find some pretty sucker and make that bitch your wife

I guess by now you all known my friend Danny broke his neck
He was driving home from Sirens and he got into a wreck
First I cried for him, then I cried for me
Haunted by the ghost of the girl I used to be
But the rocks with holes are warm in my hands
And I bury my toes in the hot, hot sand
And the silver-pink pony kisses me and
Says “You’ve come a long, long way and you deserve to be really happy.”

The first time I heard this song I was ten

I won't I love you your my friend.

This song will always make me emotional it's beautiful

I love this song too much .

I shocked myself when I started bawling like 30 seconds into the video, I tried to catch as much as the lyrics and by the end of it I kinda knew what it was. I wish you all guys a good day/night.

What the litteral fuck

Scared of burning in hell? Well I was already ther! Great line, most of us realise this, but still don't change. It's hard to explain to others, I barely understand it myself...

He came home on acid, I was holding his shotgun. I was dressed like Tina Turner in Beyond Thunderdome. Average saturday night then?...

Put on captions and things brighten up

I crap in my pasta hahaha haaha

Beautifully sad

WOW this smacked me right in the feels

I love how she refers to the Bible as a comic book. She’s such a savage, we Stan her.

The only reason why we can feel happiness is because we can also feel sadness.....

The Moldy Clementines

Came back because of the wig line.

...oh Fuck.

This song is such a wild ride start to finish

You deserve to be really happy.

This is... hypnotic.

Oh fuck, this is REALLY hypnotic

this is so bloody impacting

My life from 1989-1993

this song brings back so many memories

i know someone i really care about who would listen to this all the time hearing it makes me miss her more if youre reading this.... you deserve to be really happy

i can't stop fucking crying

This whole song just sounds like some fever dream I would end up having. Love this song so much.

i really hope kimya has seen this

Such an underrated song...but one of the best I've heard

Such an underrated song...but one of the best I've heard

"You deserve to be really happy.." idk why that line gets me every time.

drippingbat because you deserve to be happy. We all do.

"And the Christians gave me comic books as if I would be scared of burning in Hell, well I was already there."

i forgot how much i love this song

the beer i had for breakfast was half a miller high life

God I love this

I got a beer ad .-.

Kimya has such a soft & sincere voice, I couldn't picture Adam accompanying this piece.

whoever did this did a godly job

I wish I could like this extra.....

hello darkness my old friend

Fave Lyric = And the christians gave me comic books as if I would be scared
Of burning in hell well I was already there.

Ouch, This song hit me right in the feelings. What an incredible artist.

"First I cried for him, then I cried for me, haunted by the ghost of the girl used to be. But the rock with wholes are warm in my hands and I buried my toes in the hot hot sand, and the silver pink pony kisses me and says 'you've come a long long way and you deserve to be really happy..."

Fay yes!! i love her & now this song

Fay yess! she's the best

Fay Hahahah yep

Fay YAAAAAS

this song is so good and deep at the same time! i love it but it's sad as fuck

I have had this song on replay every single day ever since I found this song which was about a week ago.

It's been a year now and I still listen to this song constantly.

@HeyGuysImSleepy what teh fuck is that pic?!

cool as black Isis.

Fuck I lost this song for like a year and I found it and I love it and oml I spend an hour trying to find it

Whaaaaaattttttttt

This song is my life.. :/

I'm here if you want to talk.

fucking beautiful. thank you so much for sharing this.

someone did a map and I like the map better than this. (my opinion) this is terrible compared to the map. the map has amazingly drawn wolves murdering each other and themselves and this just has stick people lagging as they move

That's the art of it though. Simple, but tells a story.

Ah

Well I still like the map better.

I don't understand why you feel the need to comment? .-.

@ACorgiInHooman'sClothing because the comment section is for opinions, and that's my opinion.

this song is so fucking sad

olive lavender I don't get what it's about. Ik it's about alcoholism but I don't understand the story

i think it's a bit more personal so you have to understand it the way you want to

videos like these should let you like it more than once.

Great Song, great Video!

Thanks for this video <3

in love with the lyrics

GENIUS!!!

Thanks Frank

*cries*

Eh, I remember this song, it's been like 1 year since I've heard this song,
