Beer Good
Angelic Brew
That beer sure is…
Background
This song appears on two different albums, mostly due to the fact that it’s my white whale. I think I finally caught it on Flexquisite Corpse and this is what the song was meant to be, but the first version is fun and different.
Lyrics partially written by Shawn Patrick - we appreciate you, man.

Here’s the Beer Good Original Demo from ~2001:
Lyrics
Workin hard for that dollar bill
Doctor says I need a happy pill
I'm on call twenty four seven
And I just need a piece of heaven
My whole damned life, feelin' like Monday
For hell like this, I gotta get more pay
Get off work
go home and sleep
wake up in the morning can't help but weep
Beer Good
Yeah... that beer is good
Hard days wearin the hands
The pain was not a part of the plan
No one can bother to learn
keep on gettin that chemical burn
can't make ends meet as a musician
yet we all keep our ambition
no one cares for the simple life
so we gotta take... things in stride
Beer good
I know this stoned horny monk
Went fishin for a two hearted trout
Spent all day drinkin dank IPA
Now his head's pounding like a soft parade
There's a poet, a CEO
and a cold dirty bastard you know
we all have a pint tonight
and raise our glass to the wondrous delight
Beer Good!
short song of bells in the air
harmony in the night gets us where we might
feel like we're havin the best time
sweet melody and a cold one
