Story behind the song
Line just came to me - I know people in 12-step programs and i really respect them and wanted to write the song funny without insulting any of them. Bill & Lizard came on board to do that.
Lyrics
TWELVE STEPS LFROM A SIX PACK (Allen/Flowerree/Case) Four steps to the kitchen door I’ve paced a hundred times Walkin’ back and forth, tryin’ to get you off my mind Eight steps further in, an appliance cools my friends But I can’t slip and let those long necks win, again I’m just 12 steps from a six-pack Three weeks after you It would be so easy to go pop myself a brew I guess it took you leavin’ To get me to a meetin’ Twelve steps from a six pack Three weeks, four days, 56 minutes after you I’m tossin’ empty mem’ries, that’s a step I have to take I shook off all the shakes September 28th I finally found that group down at the church on Thompson Lane But the Frigidaire keeps callin’ out my name I’m just 12 steps from a six-pack Three weeks after you It would be so easy to go pop myself a brew I guess it took you leavin’ To get me to a meetin’ Twelve steps from a six pack Three weeks, four days, 56 minutes, 700 Marlboros after you If prayers and meditation don’t work for me no more There’s another higher power behind that old white door I’m just 12 steps from a six-pack Three weeks after you It would be so easy to go pop myself a brew I guess it took you leavin’ To get me to a meetin’ Twelve steps from a six pack Three weeks, four days, 56 minutes, 700 Marlboros, 18 sponsors after you Takin’ inventory of my Pabst Blue Ribbon Blue Twelve steps from a six pack Three weeks after you
