lyrics

It's easy for you to say, "You'll just have the one today won't you?"
You know that I've never been that kind of clever don't you?
You say that I don't need whisky and wine to have fun here
If you think that's true then maybe it's you who's the drunk here

I can't wait for this night be over
I just can't stand being around drunk folk when I'm sober

And I've not touched a drop since that night I got lost on my way home
A ropy kebab, dodge a fight, call a cab from a pay phone
And I can't say I like being sober at night but I'll get though it
'Coz I need to prove to myself and to you I can do this

And it's too much weight for my shoulders
I just can't stand being around drunk folk when I'm sober

No one said this would be fun
And it's easier said than done
Now I'm right back to square one

Three months gone by and although I'm still dry I'm still thirsty
So if should choose to get back on the booze will you hate me?
It's good for the soul to let old wagons roll without you
And I'll get back on when I'm feeling strong enough to

I can't wait for this night be over
It's just far too weight for my shoulders
So I will wait 'til I'm older
I just can't stand being around drunk folk when I'm sober
