I'm a bad influence on myself

VERSE 1
I walked down to the local coke machine
put in some quarters cause I got thirsty
pressed the button to make my selection
didn't work so I punched the contraption

broke my knuckle when I did that shit
screamed so loud they made a formal complaint
the boys in blue came to write me a ticket
disturbing the peace with my racket

CHORUS
I'm a bad influence on myself
no matter where I go, or how I try to be
I'm trouble in a bubble, that's how I felt
I'm a bad influence on myself

VERSE 2
we went down to the river just to relax
brought some buds and a couple six-packs
just trying to get away from everything
hop on a tube, ahhhhh float away

everything seems to be going my way
I look around at this beautiful clear day
I begin to wonder just how this could be
then a copperhead proceeds to bite me

CHORUS
I'm a bad influence on myself
cause when luck runs out, I've got no doubt
it leaves me hangin' with Miss Fortune
cause I'm a bad influence on myself

BRIDGE
when you come near me
something's gotta go wrong
I don't want it to
but it's my theme song

two inches of water
and I'm sure I would drown
if I was making it up
I'd be the happiest guy around

...but I'm not...
