Just the One

Do you fancy a drink
Just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long
It's a beautiful day
To waste away
There's plenty of time
For another one

You know you shouldn't do it
Can see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

Make mine a short
I'm getting there
But where that is
I couldn't care
There must be something I haven't tried
Perhaps that bottle before my eyes

Know you shouldn't do it
But you see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

And through the haze
The sun goes down
It's getting late
Let's hit the town
Call some friends
To paint it red
And feed the animal
In your head

You know you shouldn't do it
But you see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

They throw you out
You hit the night
You go to a club
You feel alright
You get a pill
You take just half
Then take the rest of it
For a laugh

You know you shouldn't do it
You see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha (come on)

(Oh, one more time)
Across the floor
You think you see
The one in your dreams
Your fantasy
But that last drink
Has made you blind
You need the bar
But it's hard to find

You know you shouldn't do it
But see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

There's a brand new game
You want to try
You're lining them up
And it's the first to die
You think you've won
But it's time to leave
Well back to yours
For a cup of tea

You know you shouldn't do it
You see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

When you find your keys
You all fall in
You spend an hour
In search of skins
When all seems lost
And looking grim
You find the bottle
Of Christmas gin

You know you shouldn't do it
But you see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

The rest is blank
And that's the worst
An empty head
For an empty purse
You had a laugh
So you think
But in the morning
You just stink

You know you shouldn't do it
You see no reason why
So you blow your mind
Yeah, yeah
Ha-ha

So d'you fancy a drink
It's just the one
To clear your head
We won't be long
