Brothers 'til we black out |
Lyrics"Brothers 'Til We Black Out"Written by Yves Stilmant © 2025 [Verse 1] Me and my brother wake up mad Argue 'bout toast we never had He says the coffee tastes like dirt I say his face looks like my shirt He blames me for the broken fence I blame him for the circus tent In his backyard since '95 And neither one remembers why [Pre-Chorus] We fight 'bout nothin', all day long But every brawl comes with a song [Chorus] We're brothers 'til we black out Yellin' 'til the beer runs out Throwin' punches in the yard Over duct tape, socks, and cards But when the bottle hits last round We're snorin' face-down on the ground A pile of rage and empty cans Still holdin' hands like stubborn men We're brothers 'til we black out [Verse 2] He called me cheap -- I called him slow He said I looked like Grandpa Joe I told him, "You smell like regret" He said, "Well, I ain't sober yet!" He burned my steak, I stole his hat He kicked my truck, I keyed his cat Then Grandma called and yelled, "You two-- Better hug before I slap you blue!" [Pre-Chorus] We grumble, spit, and stomp our boots But deep inside, we share the roots [Chorus] We're brothers 'til we black out Talkin' trash with whiskey shouts Playin' poker with no rules Callin' each other stubborn fools But when the world just spins too fast We pass out laughin' on the grass Too drunk to care, too old to fight Still snorin' under porch light We're brothers 'til we black out [Bridge] Next day, we forget the war 'Til someone slams the screen door Then it's on like last July Over who let Grandma's plants die [Final Chorus] We're brothers 'til we black out Stormin' through each cookout route We light the grill, then start a feud Right in front of someone's food But when the stars are spinnin' slow We lean and grunt and let it go He's my pain in every way But I still love the jerk each day We're brothers... 'til we black out |
