Just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long
It's a beautiful day
To waste away
There's plenty of time
For another one
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind
Make mine a short
I'm getting there
But where there is
I couldn't care
There must be something
I haven't tried
Perhaps that bottle
Before my eyes
Through the haze
The sun goes down
It's getting late
Let's hit the town
Call some friends
To paint it red
Feed the animal
In your head
They throw you out
You hit the night
Go to a club
You feel alright
You get a pill
Take just half
Then take the rest of it
For a laugh
Across the floor
You think you see
The one in your drams
Your fantasy
But that last drink
Has made you blind
You need the bar
But it's hard to find
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind
There's a brand new game
You want to try
Called "lining them up"
It's the first to die
You think you've won
But it's time to leave
All back to yours
For a cup of tea
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind
When you find your keys
You all fall in
And spend an hour
In search of skins
When all seems lost
And looking grim
You find a bottle
Of christmas gin
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind
The rest is blank
And that's the worst
An empty head
For an empty purse
You had a laugh
Or so you think
But in the morning
You just stink
You know you shouldn't do it
But can't see no reason why
So blow your mind
So you fancy a drink
It's just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long
Do you fancy a drink Just the one To clear your head We won't be long It's a beautiful day To waste away There's plenty of time For another one You know you shouldn't do it But can't see no reason why So blow your mind Make mine a short I'm getting there But where there is I couldn't care There must be something I haven't tried Perhaps that bottle Before my eyes Through the haze The sun goes down It's getting late Let's hit the town Call some friends To paint it red Feed the animal In your head They throw you out You hit the night Go to a club You feel alright You get a pill Take just half Then take the rest of it For a laugh Across the floor You think you see The one in your drams Your fantasy But that last drink Has made you blind You need the bar But it's hard to find You know you shouldn't do it But can't see no reason why So blow your mind There's a brand new game You want to try Called "lining them up" It's the first to die You think you've won But it's time to leave All back to yours For a cup of tea You know you shouldn't do it But can't see no reason why So blow your mind When you find your keys You all fall in And spend an hour In search of skins When all seems lost And looking grim You find a bottle Of christmas gin You know you shouldn't do it But can't see no reason why So blow your mind The rest is blank And that's the worst An empty head For an empty purse You had a laugh Or so you think But in the morning You just stink You know you shouldn't do it But can't see no reason why So blow your mind So you fancy a drink It's just the one To clear your head We won't be long Explain Request ×
