Remember when you used to call me your whiskey girl
stared into my eyes and played with my curls.
I was like whiskey in a teacup you once said
It made me giggle and curious and somehow end up in your bed
Now every time I see a bottle of jack or johnnie,
I feel like giving you a smack and that's putting it nicely
when you left, oh so suddenly
you drained me completely
I no longer have that kick and spark
the fire has long died out
Those wits that could once kill
have run back to the hills
When you came, like every other guy at the bar,
you only had one desire
To taste a sample of the finest brew
When you left, like every other male
you don't bother cleaning up, leaving glasses in your wake
And I guess that included me, should I be happy I didn't break
Still a pretty piece of fine china
caught up in a mess of heartbreak mania
So I suppose now I am just another teacup
Tea in a cup
That's how it's meant to be right
That's what society wanted and you despised
But now you've taken away my ignition
So I guess this will have to be my redemption
