|
You walk in the room |
|
The folks are all there |
|
With glasses in hand |
|
But you can't take the band |
|
So you head for the bar |
|
The barman's well stocked |
|
He knows where you're at |
|
He offers a drink |
|
But you can't take none of that |
|
(No you can't take none of that) |
|
Everybody's having fun |
|
So why be the one |
|
Who's out in the cold |
|
It's not good enough |
|
You made a deal with yourself |
|
You said you'd never take another drop |
|
Your craving's big, your livers shot |
|
You'd give a million for a solitary drop |
|
You take your first belt |
|
It tastes like pure hell |
|
The second one drops |
|
Intentions are shot |
|
Well you think you might as well |
|
You take another sip |
|
You get to likin' it |
|
The music sounds hip |
|
So you head for the floor |
|
(So you head for the floor) |
|
Yea yea yea yea yea |
|
Well you step out on the dance floor |
|
And you grab at your boss's wife |
|
You've been longing to hold her close |
|
For the whole of your working life |
|
And the band played on |
|
Move your ass |
|
Well your hostess is lookin' mad |
|
As your hands start to wander |
|
And your boss is gonna get you now |
|
He's gonna put you six feet under |
|
You get walked out the door |
|
And your feet don't touch the floor |
|
You're never gonna see `em no more |
|
The dawn starts to break |
|
Your heads a big ache |
|
You're lyin' in bed |
|
You're back from the dead |
|
And your mouth feels like old leather |
|
(Old leather) |
|
Never do it again |
|
(You'll never do it again) |
|
Everyone was havin' fun |
|
But you were the one |
|
Kicked out in the cold |
|
You slept in your clothes |
|
You let `em down |
|
Down at the club |
|
You know your confidence got to take the rub |
|
Your boss is sore |
|
You've had your chance |
|
He says he never wants to see you again |
|
Don't wanna see you again |
|
(Don't wanna see you again) |
|
You've got to dry out |
|
The boys have found out |
|
It's the end of the line |
|
But it's martini time |
|
So you head for the bar..r...r..r..r..r |
