 I forced  myself  to open  my eyes
 
 but if this hangover is killing me
 I died  at least three times  during the night
  *
 and I dribbled on myself again
 
 so anyone who told me I should shut my mouth
 turned out  to be alright  in the end
  *
 And I have to leave this place by god it's killing me
  *
 I guess I'll go to London on the train if the bastards not delayed
  *
 and in the Barfly I'll think about my life
 or that time  I played in Newbury
 and nobody  came.
  *
 and I know that somethings wrong but I don't know what
  *
 and I may not be alone but that's still life whether you like it or not
  *
 and I may give it up for fortune and for fame
 but I will  still be the cynical  when I  get  paid
And  maybe then I'll have some credibility
 and I don't mean being mentioned in the NME
  *
 I know that I've got stupid hair and wonky teeth
 and they probably  look for prettier  than me.
Why  do you call me grumpy  anyway?
 when you can  so often find  me with a smile on my face,
*
 laughing at the chav boys and their spit for brains
 and their nineties  fucking tracksuits
 and their pretend  MC names.
  *
 and I know that something's wrong but I don't know what
  *
 and I may not be alone but it's still life wether you like it or not
  *
 and I may give it up for fortune and for fame
 but I will  still be the cynical  when I  get  paid
 Maybe then  i'll write decent middle  eight
 
 that isn't just the same four chords that i've already played
 and  the crowd will cheer me on from fret to fret
 and I'll have  a record contract
 and it might  help me begin to forget
  *
 and I know that something's wrong but I don't know what
  *
 and I may not be alone but it's still life wether you like it or not
  *
 and I may give it up for fortune and for fame
 but I will  still be the cynical  when I  get  paid
 and I'll be  this way until  I get laid
 good god.
 And all this  is why I'm going  so grey.
