[Verse 1]
Well it started on a Friday, I was feelinā bold
Cravinā something spicy, greasy, hot or cold
Went to a diner on the edge of town
Didnāt think twice when I sat down
The waitress winked and said āYouāre in for a treatā
Next thing I know I was elbows-deep in meat
Had a side of slaw and a piece of pie
Woke up the next day with a bloodshot eye
[Chorus]
Shouldnāt have eaten out, now Iām payinā the price
Got that red-eye look that donāt feel nice
Aināt talkinā romance, no sweet alibi
Just a crusty old case of pink eye
Thought I was livinā large, now Iām feelinā gross
Lord, I shoulda just stayed home with some beans and toast
[Verse 2]
Tried to play it cool, went back to the bar
My buddy said, āDang, you look like you fought a carā
I said, āNah, man, itās just a little bugā
He backed away slow like I asked for a hug
Now my girl wonāt kiss me, wonāt hold my hand
Says Iām lookinā like a one-eyed rockinā man
Tried to tell her itās not what it seems
But sheās sprayinā Lysol all over my jeans
[Chorus]
Shouldnāt have eaten out, now Iām stuck at home
Staring through a cold compress all alone
A lesson learned with a teary eye
Next time Iāll skip the chili fries
No more risky meals on the go
Just me and my microwave burrito
[Bridge]
Oh mama said, āBoy, you best think twice
āBout where you sit and what you biteā
Now I know she was talkinā truth
Aināt no cure for a dumb manās youth
[Final Chorus]
Shouldnāt have eaten out, shoulda played it safe
Now Iām red-eyed, swollen, feelinā outta place
No love, no beer, canāt even drive
All 'cause I went out and tried to feel alive
Now Iām sittinā here in my cotton robe
With pink eye⦠and a warning globe
[Outro]
Yeah, next time I get that kind of urge
Iāll just call in and get me some DoorDash splurge...
