New Tattoo

Hello you, yes it's a new tattoo
And no, it doesn't look like you
My fantasies do not include
Women who are ugly and rude

I can still find a beer for $1.75
Though the folks at the bar are barely alive
No perky breasts or golden hair
Just broken people with lonely stare

It's hard to believe I was happy here
Must have been the ice cold beer
The time has washed the pain away
Just can't find a reason to stay

Superstition dictates a Saint Joe in the dirt
Cash out and put behind the hurt
Leave the relics far behind
Salvage the remains of my mind

I found what I was searching for
Just minutes from my own front door
So different from the likes of you
So like my new tattoo
