"Alright Guy" Todd Snider -- Songs for the Daily Planet
(x2)
You know just the other morning I was hanging around in my house I had that new book with pictures of Madonna naked I was checkin' it out Just then a friend of mine came through the door Said she'd never pegged me for a scumbag before She said she didn't ever want to see me any more And I still don't know why
(CHORUS:) I think I'm an alright guy I think I'm an alright guy I just want to live until I've got to die I know I ain't perfect but God knows I try I think I'm an alright guy I think I'm alright
Now maybe I'm dirty And maybe I smoke a little dope Hey it ain't like I'm going on TV And tearing up pictures of the pope I know I get wild and I know I get drunk But it ain't like I got a bunch of bodies in my trunk My old man used to call me a no-good punk And I still don't know why
(Chorus)
SOLO (over verse; skip final G)
You know just the other night These cops pulled me over outside a bar
They turned on their lights And they ordered me out of my car Man I was only kidding when I called 'em a couple of dicks But still they made me do the stupid human tricks Now I'm stuck in this jail with a bunch of dumb hicks And I still don't know why
(Chorus)
(Outro)
