Couldn't Take Yes For An Answer

from Make It Drink by Lee Meadvin

lyrics

Fill my glass with sugar I won't let it go to waste
I tried to like coffee but I couldn't stand the taste
I got there too late

Sizing up my take I'm looking through the lack
And all that time I spent on worry, I never got it back
Had it pegged to rights I thought but lost it at the blink
You can pour a horse a glass but you can't make it drink

Think of what you're spending sticks and carrots aren't cheap
I tried to be easy by I couldn't get to sleep
My head slopes too steep

Poise got shipped with pride, still reeling from the slack
I'm a nervous wreck already, and I still keep looking back
Heavy bird around my neck and oh the boards did shrink
You can pour a horse a glass but you can't make it drink

Still can't get away
Have myself a fine time together
I hope you'll go
Still can't get away
Have myself a fine time together
I don't hope

Most tricks just work twice but I guess I had a knack
I burnt my mouth so badly, and I still keep coming back
I'm a see-through one-eyed dream, so blind that I can't think
You can pour a horse a glass but you can't make it
