Tell Him I’m Hungover
Loose alt-rock groove with male vocals; crunch guitars and roomy live drums keep a laid-back swagger. Verses sit half-spoken, close-mic, with lazy drawl; chorus opens into wide, shout-along gang vocals and bright overheads. Bass walks with a tipsy wobble; subtle organ pad glues the mix and a quick, messy guitar lick leads into the final hook.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Man
I just woke up sideways
Shoes still on from last night
Phone’s on fire on the nightstand
Your name flashing in the sunrise light
My head’s doing cartwheels
Stomach’s somewhere on the floor
You say
“Boss is asking where you are”
I say
“Bro
Just buy me one more hour”
[Chorus]
Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
You can dress it up
I don’t care
Just make sure he knows I’m breathing
But I won’t be there
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I had plans to be responsible
Clock in
Keep my head down low
Then the shots turned into stories
And the stories said
“You don’t have to go”
So if he asks if I’m committed
Say I’m loyal to my bed (so loyal)
If he wants a little detail
Say the couch and I are newlyweds
[Chorus]
Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
You can dress it up
I don’t care
Just make sure he knows I’m breathing
But I won’t be there
[Bridge]
If he really needs a hero
Tell him I’ll rise again by noon (by noon)
Till then it’s just me and this ceiling fan
Spinning like the room
[Chorus]
Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
Swear I’ll try to be there soon
But today my brain’s on strike
My friend
So send my regards from my room
Man
I just woke up sideways
Shoes still on from last night
Phone’s on fire on the nightstand
Your name flashing in the sunrise light
My head’s doing cartwheels
Stomach’s somewhere on the floor
You say
“Boss is asking where you are”
I say
“Bro
Just buy me one more hour”
[Chorus]
Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
You can dress it up
I don’t care
Just make sure he knows I’m breathing
But I won’t be there
[Verse 2]
Yeah
I had plans to be responsible
Clock in
Keep my head down low
Then the shots turned into stories
And the stories said
“You don’t have to go”
So if he asks if I’m committed
Say I’m loyal to my bed (so loyal)
If he wants a little detail
Say the couch and I are newlyweds
[Chorus]
Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
You can dress it up
I don’t care
Just make sure he knows I’m breathing
But I won’t be there
[Bridge]
If he really needs a hero
Tell him I’ll rise again by noon (by noon)
Till then it’s just me and this ceiling fan
Spinning like the room

Tell him I’m hungover
Tell him I’m still dead
Say my car won’t start
My dog ran off
I’ve lost my shoes and sense and head
Tell him I’m hungover
Swear I’ll try to be there soon
But today my brain’s on strike
My friend
So send my regards from my room
