I've got a super duper can of super strength
And no front teeth, but that doesn't matter to me
'Cos I'm so high, I'm higher than the birds and planes and clouds
But that's alright, 'cos I'm gonna crash land any minute
You all look down on me
Probably 'cos I can't stand
On my own two feet.
You're only happy she said
When there's a drink in your hand
Damn right I said right back
What do I have nowadays, anyways?
I said I would change my ways, but I lied
And I will be this for the rest of my days
A pint in one hand and a fag in the other
Please believe me when I say
There's no way I'd rather be, blind drunk and happy
You all look down on me
Probably 'cos I can't stand
On my own two feet.
You're only happy she said
When there's a drink in your hand
Damn right I said right back
What do I have nowadays, anyways?
You all look down on me
Probably 'cos I can't stand
On my own two feet.
You're only happy she said
When there's a drink in your hand
Damn right I said right back
What do I have nowadays, anyways?
