==Overview==
==Overview==
The ''Sucker Punch'' single is sometimes listed as ''[[Shit Thick]]'', another ''Welcome To Vas Llegas'' song, which is the second track on the disc. This, in addition to other information discovered about this release, implies that it is a modern 'double A-side' single.
"Sucker Punch" was released in [[1992]] as the third track of ''[[Welcome to Vas Llegas (album)|Welcome to Vas Llegas]]'', as well as on its own as a CD single. The CD single featured fellow album track "[[Shit Thick]]", as well as "[[Ms. Rubble]]", an outtake from the ''Welcome to Vas Llegas'' recording sessions. "Sucker Punch" was also featured as a b-side to "[[Shit Thick]]" on its respective 12" vinyl release.


The single's third track, "[[Ms. Rubble]]", is an otherwise unreleased song which was also produced by Nicholas Sansano from the ''Welcome...'' sessions.  The disc's liner notes includes lyrics for this non-album B-side.  The disc's photography is credited to Sheryl Nields.
The design and track listing of the "Sucker Punch" CD single is nearly identical to that used on the "[[Shit Thick]]" vinyl single, often causing confusion between the two.

<poem>
Suck it in from the cup then
Fill it up, fill it up again
Suck it down like a guzzle hound who's
Full of it with a double chin
 
A cup of cut right in the kisser
A mouth full, then another round
The bell rings, she tags in her sister
Pops her cork, then takes you down
 
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
 
Half a man who's twice as drunk
From one cup of your sucker punch
 
I've taken all I can swallow
I'm 'bout as high as I will get
My feet left and my body will follow
To get another beer instead
 
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me out
 
Half a man who's twice as drunk
From one cup of your sucker punch
 
Her bottle is never empty
My cup, it's never full
I'm hard, hot and thirsty
She's soft, calm and cool
 
Suck it in from the cup then
Fill it up, fill it up again
Suck it down like a guzzle hound who's
Full of it with a double chin
 
You wear me out
You wear me out
You wear me fuckin' out
You wear me out
 
Half a man who's twice as drunk
From one cup of your sucker punch
Knocked up bad luck
</poem>
