verse 1
I was sittin' in a chair at the H&R Block.
Some bean countin' pencil pusher runnin' up the clock.
Said, "I've tallied up your numbers for the end of the year,
And son, you've spent a small fortune on liquor and beer."
I said it's ;
Cheaper than a shrink.
You don't have to think.
You just pour and drink.
It's sixteen-fifty for a bottle of Jack,
No pouring out your heart to some high-dollar quack.
Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done.
And gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun.
And it's cheaper than a shrink.
You don't have to think.
You just pour and drink.
Aw, it's cheaper than a shrink.
verse 2
Now me and her had this little problem between us.
Tryin' to bridge the gap between Mars and Venus.
She said, "Honey, I think we need to see a marital counselor."
I said, "All we need to do is slam a case of twelve-ouncers."
'Cause it's ;
Cheaper than a shrink.
You don't have to think.
You just pour and drink.
About eighteen bucks 'll get you four six-packs.
No pouring out your heart to some high dollar quack.
Just a flip of the wrist and you're gettin' it done.
And gettin' just as messed up and havin' a lot more fun.
And it's cheaper than a shrink.
You don't have to think.
You just pour and drink.
Yeah, it's cheaper than a shrink.
verse 3
If liquor prices soared as high as gasoline,
I'd a quit drinkin' back when I was nineteen.
It's the oldest most proven form of therapy.
The best thing about it far as I can see is that it's ;
Cheaper than a shrink.
You don't have to think.
You just pour and drink.
And it's cheaper than a shrink.
Aw, you just pour and drink.
And it's a whole lot cheaper
Than some big town, clock hound, drag you down shrink.
