THE SCHOLL INDEX
words & music by chris block

lyrics

A man walks into a bar
he says
why don’t you give me a drink?
bartender says, I got something for you
tell me what do you think?

the man takes the drink
the man drinks the drink
he says
that’s one fine drink

next day the man is back at the bar
he asks for that same drink
bartender says ‘I’ve got something you’ll like
a little more distinct

the man takes the drink
the man drinks the drink
he doesn’t like the drink

some days are cloudy
some are fair
some clouds bring rain
some clouds bring hail

each night I wait here
come what may
day after day
these clouds remain


sometimes I wonder
if we’ll survive
I sleep to dream
I sleep to dream
I sleep to dream
I sleep to dream

day after that, our man is back
he says
can you give me a drink?
Can you give me that drink?

bartender says
I got just what you need
if you give me a chance
Just one more chance

The man takes the drink
the man drinks the drink
the man hates the drink
he says
well what the hell was that?

bartender says
that was the drink
the very same drink.
The exact same drink.

And the man looks at the bartender and he looks at the drink
and he look at the bartender and he looks at the drink
and he thinks
and he says, uh

no, that’s not it!
