[Verse 1] I took one sip, then I took two Bad idea, baby, you know what to do My stomach said, “Boy, we got a fight” By the time I hit home, I was in the bathroom all night [Verse 2] Went to the diner, got a slice of pie Chef said “cream,” and I said “why, oh why?” Got that grin, got that reckless stare Now I’m reading labels like a preacher in despair [Pre-Chorus] I can dance, I can run I can flee from anyone But when that milk starts calling my name My whole brave plan goes up in flame [Chorus] No milk for me No milk for me Keep that carton far away from me No milk for me No milk for me I love you, but you’re not for me [Verse 3] Cheese on a cracker, maybe I’ll try Then the tiny drums start up inside Ice cream truck singing down the block That’s how I know I better not [Verse 4] My uncle said, “Son, you need the strength” I said, “Uncle, that’s a bathroom-length” Give me beans, give me rice, give me tea Just don’t set that whole white ocean in front of me [Pre-Chorus] I can grin, I can stall I can act like I’ve got it all But one little pour and I’m in the race Like a man with thunder in his face [Chorus] No milk for me No milk for me Keep that carton far away from me No milk for me No milk for me I love you, but you’re not for me [Bridge] Doctor said, “Boy, just listen close” “Read them labels like you read a note” I do my best and I do alright Till somebody offers that creamy bite [Final Chorus] No milk for me No milk for me Keep that carton far away from me No milk for me No milk for me I love you, but you’re not for me [Outro] Pass me the water, pass me the bread I learned my lesson, that’s what I said Ain’t no drama, ain’t no sin I’m just the man who can’t win with the skim
