I was drunk but I’m almost sober now

And when I am I’ll pour another one

It’s fun to drink but you have got to know

When you should stop so you can get things done

And besides, being sober can be fun

You can do ironing and stuff like that

You can keep fit: cycle, go for a run

Talk to your mum, have showers, feed the cat

Play with your kid for hours, they’re no brat

Except when you’re too selfish to allow

Some time to make them smile. Weed the garden

Play music, read, make love or simply chat.

It sounds so easy but it’s too late now

For all those things, so pour another one
