You're Not Drinking Enough

(album: Building The Perfect Beast - 1984)

I can see that you haven't recovered from the girl who let you down
And you'd sell what is left of your soul for another go-round
You keep telling yourself she means nothing and maybe you should call her bluff
But you don't really believe it
You must not be drinking enough

Well, the perfume she wore you can buy down at the Five & Dime
But on some other woman it don't smell the same in your mind
You keep telling yourself you can take it
Telling yourself that you're tough
But you still wanna hold her
You must not be drinking enough

You're not drinking enough to wash away old memories
And there ain't enough whiskey in Texas to keep you from beggin, "Please, please, please"

She passed on you passion and stepped on you pride
Turns out you ain't quite so tough
'Cause you still wanna hold her
You must not be drinking enough

Ay-yi-yi-yi
Ask yourself why
You still want to hold her
You must not be drinking enough
Ay-yi-yi-yi [etc.]
