lyrics

HUNGOVER MORNING
(Ian M. Bruce)

Consciousness creeps to the clocks crescendo. T
hat alarm, will it never eno-o?
My stomach's not well.
My head hurts like hell
And to boot, it's a bloody cold morning.
oh- Let me sleep tight, I'll be fine by tonight.
My head should be better by then.
Oh! Let me just stay in my bed for today
And I swear, "I'll drink never again!'

CHORUS
Never again! Never again!
Aw! whisky and beer,
They make me feel queer
And I swear, I'll drink never again!"

My blankets, they nestle like snow on the meadow.
I am in comfort but wish I was dead-o.
My teeth are all furry,
My tongue tastes of curry,
I'd tandoori just oefore bedtime.
I reach out my arm to quash the alarm
But the clock, it ends up on the floor.
But before it can land I retract my hand
And I swear, "I will drink nevermore!"

Never again

But prudence prevails and I steal from the sheets,
Clasping my head to suppress the heartbeats.
I must wake myself, I must shake myself
Cos within the hour I'll be working.
Let this hangover rage but I must have my wage
Because money is ever so tight.
I need money to spend because me and my friend,
Well, we're going out drinking tonight.
