In this skip-and-stride ode to inebriation (and, yes, the glorious morning after), The Bernadettes attack an ages-old motif with a primal, jokey-but-not-hokey energy.
lyrics
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
I’m feeling fine, yeah, I feel great
9,10,11,12,13,14
I’m gonna make you my beauty queen
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
A,b,c,d,e,f,g
I know you wanna sleet with me
H,i,j,k,l,m,n
Everybody wants to be my friend
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober! I’m sober! (2x)
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober, I’m sober, I’m sober today
It’s over, It’s over, the games that I play
I’m sober! I’m sober! (4x)
I’m sober today
