1
Oh God, it's another night
2
And your head is feeling like a lump of lead
3
You should never have drunk those party-fours
4
You should of been home being good instead
5
Ever been in a deja vue and the end is the same again
6
You ran out of your silver thins and you're trying to be so high class
7
Though you need a bath and your hair's looking like string
8
And though you're nearly broke you end up paying for all the drinks
9
And you tell them, "Oh, it's nothing
10
There's a million where those came from"
11
And then you whisper to your longest suffering friend
12
"Please lend me a few quid"
13
Oh God, it's another day
14
And your stomach's feeling like a blown-up balloon
15
You should never have eaten that greasy food
16
The doctor told you that chile was bad for your blood
17
And you're standing at the chemist in boots
18
Coughing up your guts like you're at deaths door
19
And all this for a packet of Do-Do's
20
And the assistant gives you a wink and you turn bright red
21
It's at time like this that you wish you were dead
22
And you take the whole packet and you feel like you've drunk
23
A bottle of bleach and you tell yourself
24
"Never, never again, not until next week anyway"
25
And you were never one for holding drink
26
And you stagger off to the toilet
27
And you throw up like it was Christmas
28
And you miss the bowl and you hit your shoes
29
And there's no paper towels, what else can go wrong for you
30
It's a choice between a cab fare home and a packet of cigarettes
31
So you choose and the money sticks in the machine
32
And the manager says
33
"Tough shit, drink up and leave"
34
Oh God, it's another disease
35
And you just got rid of the last
36
You were beginning to feel okay
37
And the friends you gave it to were speaking to you again
38
And you find yourself having sex in the back of the car
39
And the girl underneath doesn't care who you are
40
And you're nearly there and she still doesn't care
41
And her chewing gum is getting stuck in your hair
42
And there's something wrong
43
Something that you forgot
44
Oh shit, you've forgotten the rubber
45
And you don't want a kid
46
Well, deny it was you, oh Christ, if your dad finds out
47
Then he'll make you stay in and do your homework
48
And cut your hair and wear your school uniform out in the street
49
What a fate worse than death
50
Oh well, he can't hit you, you can hit him back
51
And play your records so loud
52
All the ones that he especially hates
53
Deep Purple in Rock, Led Zeppelin II
54
Well, even you hate those
55
Well, on second thoughts
56
I think I'll leave home and go and live in America
57
Because they earn more money there
58
And you can get away with murder, yeah
59
Oh, this is a mugs game
60
I can't wait until I'm twenty one
61
And I can tell them all to sod off
