Bodyguard & the Beer Girl

Started off just a random seat Some old lecture hall
Sat down it was a pleasure to meet you Said, we'll get through this somehow
Would you mind taking notes? I've got work till three A.M.
Why you always out so late? Straight A's, I don't understand
And we had every class together Time and time again
Making dinner while we cram for finals You'd help me understand

Then I turned eighteen and saw for myself You were working at the campus bar
Little place where you could lose yourself Just get away for a while
Seasons later I was looking for work What the hell, it's a job
Black shirt said "SECURITY"
And everybody answers to Rob Football dudes and the scientist It was always pretty chill
Kid's treat V.I.P like Atlantis
A couple dollars will always get you in

Coat check girl, oh so pretty
Please try not to lose your ticket
Washrooms that way, no attendant The cooks always had the best jokes Servers in the back countin' change One more hour til it hits
Bar backs cuttin' limes and lemons The bartenders ready their tips
And there you were all singled out Bottle opener on your hip
Had a way with everybody
Had em laughing between each sip

Sitting in the Buller building Across the way to work
We went everywhere together The bodyguard and the beer girl

Then the D.J.'d play some country songs And everybody'd sing along
til the moment things all went wrong A fight breaks up the whole thing
I was scared the first time it happened Never fought before
And everybody wants to be a helper It just makes everything worse
I'll never forget your tip jar got swiped I let you down that time

You laughed and said "It's only money, We'll make it up tomorrow night."

Already feels like one of those nights A lot of wise guys in here
Just know if shit hits the fan
I got my eye on the girl with the beer

Then I'd walk you to your car Make sure the damn thing worked
cause we went everywhere together The bodyguard and the beer girl The bodyguard and the beer girl
