The Last Shot - LOU REED



The last shot should have killed me, pour another drink

Let's drink drink to the last shot

And the blood on the dishes in the sink

Blood inside the coffee cup, blood on the table top



When you quit, you quit, but you always wish

You knew it was your last shot



I shot blood at the fly on the wall

My heart almost stopped, hardly there at all

I broke the mirror with my fall -with my fall - fall - fall

Fall - fall - fall



Gimme a double, give yourself one too

Gimme a short beer, one for you too

And a toast to everything that doesn't move - that doesn't move



But when you quit, you quit, but you always wish

You knew it was your last shot



Whiskey, bourbon, vodka and scotch

I don't care what it is you've got

I just want to know that it's my last shot - my last shot



I remember when I quit pretty good

See, this here's where I chipped my tooth

I shot a vein in my neck and I coughed up a quaalude

On my last shot - my last shot



Here's a toast to all that's good

And here's a toast to hate

And here's a toast to toasting and I'm not boasting

When I say I'm getting straight, when I say I'm getting straight



But when you quit, you quit, but you always wish

You knew it was your last shot



When you quit, you quit, but you always wish

You knew it was your last shot
