Side Effects - Tara Thompson

Written by：Erin Enderlin/Tara Thompson/Alex Kline

I got your text

Sayin' you and him were over

Between a cousin and a spellin'

I figure you weren't sober

So I'm here with a shoulder

As friends don't let friends

Drink alone

Love's like a pill

You had a bad reaction

Got you real hard

Now that heartache

That you're having

Just side effects

Might lead to smoking

Whole packs of cigarettes

Throwin' back shots

Of johnnie walker red

Waking up with strangers

Layin' in your bed

If love came with a warning label

It would say it's potentially fatal

'Cause it's ugly crying

Drunk down in your ex

And that's just some

Kind of side effects

Right now you're saying

'Screw that guy

But let me tell you honey

By the end of the night

You'll be too drunk to drive

And calling him to take you home

Let me buy you a round

And I'll get you a cab

Girl we've all been there

Yeah I know I have

That's just the side effects

Might lead to smoking

Whole packs of cigarettes

Throwin' back shots

Of johnnie walker red

Waking up with strangers

Layin' in your bed

If love came with

A warning label

It would say

It's potentially fatal

'Cause it's ugly crying drunk

Down in your ex

And that's just some

Kind of side effects

Now scare running

And blood shot eyes

Side effects

Feelin' like you're gonna die

Side effects

To a lot things that you regret

Like one last time

Break up sex

Side effects

Might lead to smoking whole

Packs of cigarettes

Throwin' back shots of johnnie

Walker red

Waking up with strangers

Layin' in your bed

If love came with

A warning label

It would say

It's potentially fatal

'Cause it's ugly crying drunk

Down in your ex

And that's just some

Kind of side effects

You're done with love

That's something

We've all said

But that's just

One of the side effects
