Ice Cold Headaches
By That Beach Sound Cartel
[Verse 1]
You ever had a brain freeze?
Something so cold it hurts your head?
I’ve been getting those since I was ten
But they ain’t all from drinks, my friend
As a youngster at a 7-Eleven
Cherry Slurpees tasted just like heaven
Sucked that straw, felt my poor brain crack
Waited ten seconds, then went right back
[Verse 2]
In elementary school, a girl made me drool
Pretty blue eyes, but she played me for a fool
Bought her candy hearts, said I smelled like a trash can
Then crushed those hearts right there, in her hand
[Chorus]
Ice cold headaches, here they come again
Some from a straw, some from a girlfriend
Amazin' going down, then they hurt like sin
I swear I’m through, then I dive back in
Ice cold headaches, what a ride
A little pleasure with that pain inside
I know what’s coming, I’ve been there before
Give me ten seconds, I’ll be back for more
[Verse 3]
In my teens, down in Miami
Lum’s root beer floats, sweet and creamy
Cold shot north, my thoughts went south
Swore I’d quit, then put more in my mouth
[Verse 4]
In high school, loved a girl, forgot her name
Said she loved me too, but lying was her game
Monday she’d kiss me, Tuesday she’d shout
Saturday night, we were making out
[Chorus]
Ice cold headaches, here they come again
Some from a straw, some from a girlfriend
Delish going down, then they hurt like sin
I swear I’m through, then I dive back in
Ice cold headaches, what a ride
A little pleasure with that pain inside
I know what’s coming, I’ve been there before
Give me ten seconds, I’ll be back for more
[Verse 5]
In my Twenties, down in Hallandale
Flanigan’s was pouring, I was feeling swell
Alabama Slammers, ice cold and sweet
Froze up my noggin, but I ordered a repeat
[Verse 6]
Met a pretty blonde who wanted to smooch
Borrowed my truck, brought it back all bruised
I swore I was done with that beautiful girl
Then she winked, and I gave it another whirl
[Bridge]
You’d think a man would learn something
After all those years
Cold drinks and pretty women
Same old pain between the ears
I swear I’m done, I’ve had enough
Then another pretty face appears
Ice cold headaches here they come again
Some from a straw, some from a girlfriend
[Verse 7]
Sitting at a beach bar, enjoying the day
When a beautiful woman came walking my way
She smiled and asked, “Is this seat taken?”
I felt another headache in the making
I rolled my eyes, reached into my pocket
Pulled out that aspirin bottle, couldn’t stop it
Shook two little pills right into my hand
Then smiled at her just like a foolish man
[Music pause – lines spoken dryly]
“No, darlin’…”
“Have a seat!”
[Final Chorus]
Ice cold headaches, here they come again
Some from a straw, some from a girlfriend
Sweet going down, then they hurt like sin
I swear I’m through, then I dive back in
Ice cold headaches, what a ride
A little pleasure with that pain inside
I know what’s coming, I’ve been there before
Give me ten seconds, I’ll be back for more
Ice cold headaches, here they come again
Ice cold headaches
here they come again
[Fade out]
Ice cold headaches
Man, aren't they great?
Ice cold headaches
[Final tag]
Ice! Ice! Cold Headaches!
