Lyrics
My best friend
don't come out no more
he's got a wife, a job and a sprog
now he's fucking boring
and I can't count
the time's he's let me down
something just came up
but next time surely
I won't be surprised or disapointed
Here's that bit at the end of a dream
when you're losing it
don't let go of it
it's the key to the whole thing
It was something about a swimming pool
or a hospital
or was it my primary school?
oh fuck it, it's gone
So bring down the curtain
cos I'm almost certain
it's the end
Gather your coat and your friends
and head for the door
Strangers, acquaintances, new friends and enemies
A toast before you go
Raise your glass, raise your spirits
let's hear it
One More For The Road
I only have two different moods
isolated and intoxicated
I know which I prefer
and I came here to lighten your booze
have a scotch or two
and a peek at you
So bring down the curtain
cos I'm almost certain
it's the end
Gather your coat and your friends
and head for the door
Strangers, acquaintances, new friends and enemies
A toast before you go
Raise your glass, raise your spirits
let's hear it
One More For The Road
