Well the sky's turning purple above the community center And I'm sitting in a circle telling my secrets to strangers And they say I've got a problem but I don't know that I've got one Cause you never know that you've got one til someone comes along and spots one They say it's the hardest step but it's the first one of many And my feet are stuck to the ground and I can't seem to take any I could tell them that I just came for the free cup of tea and the biscuit And make my way toward the door but I don't think I can risk it cause I never wanted to stay but the morning came so soon And we all know the words but we just sing them out of tune Cause I had my first drink when I was fourteen and I knew that I was in trouble Cause I woke up the next morning with my face down in the rubble And everyone was drinking singles I'd pour myself a double I just needed a little bit more And now I'm sitting here with my name badge and I'm listening to the same sad Stories about their old dads and making all of the same bad Turnings at their crossroads and drowning all their sorrows Without any lifeguard around Oh no! I never wanted to stay but the morning came so soon And we all know the words but we just sing them out of tune And oh no And the sky's turning dark as we all step out into the carpark And I'll see you all same time same place next week But before we go our separate ways there's just one thing I'd like to say Is anybody up for a drink?
