I Picture a Pitcher ©2016 Robert George BMI

My co-worker at the fact’ry got laid off,
They led him out in cuffs cos he punched the boss
And the rest of us hadda take an anger management class
The shrink wore a bow-tie and a sweater vest,
He kept askin’ if my feelings were repressed
Cos I hadda fight to keep from kickin’ his ass

He showed me some ink blots and said to concentrate
And it stuck in my craw, when he asked what I saw
So I told him straight

I picture a pitcher
Of some icy cold beer
My life’d be richer
With a mug of gold cheer
I close my eyes
And visualize a paradise
With ev’rything I hold dear
When I picture a pitcher
Of icy cold beer

After work I headed for the parkin’ lot
Saw a bald guy preachin’ by my parkin’ spot
He had pamphlets, sandals and a long, beaded robe
He was tall n thin and long in the tooth
Said if I gave up sin and was strong in the truth
I’d rule in a kingdom that’d spread across the globe

He said I could live forever in a mystic promised land
I said, “that sounds good to me, and it’s something I can see
If time has a beer in each hand

Cos I picture a pitcher
Of some icy cold beer
My life’d be richer
With a mug of gold cheer
I close my eyes
And visualize a paradise
With ev’rything I hold dear
When I picture a pitcher
Of icy cold beer

YEAH!! I picture a pitcher
Of some icy cold beer
My life’d be richer
With a mug of gold cheer
I close my eyes
And visualize a paradise
With ev’rything I hold dear
When I picture a pitcher
Of icy cold beer”
