After decades of brawls we’ll have to say, Enough!
We’ve brawled enough the last decade. Enough!
Lines in the sand threaten to bloody us more.
We can’t cross those lines without tasting blood.
How about a beer at the bar of your choice?
You can choose the beer at your favorite bar.
We’ll talk about the Lakers and the Pistons.
You don’t like the Larkers or the Pistons?
See, already we have something in common.
Common, uncommon, already we’re talking.
Sure, I’ll have Irish Whiskeys. But they’re on me!
We’ll drink Irish Whiskeys until they’re on us,
until drinking at some point lifts our spirits!
