Barkeep  another Mekong  please.  Yes of course you can keep the change.
New  glass here for this new friend  of mine.  Forgive me I forgot your
name. Flip  a coin what shall we talk  about? Heads  I tell the truth and
 tails I  lie. Well I came all  the way from Taipei  today. Now Bangkok's
 pourin' rain as I'm goin'  blind again and I haven't seen  my girl for
fifteen  thousand miles.
Well  is it true it's always happy  hour here?
And  if it is I'd like to stay  a while.
Well  as cliche  as it may sound  I'd like to raise  another round.
 And if your bottle's  empty help  yourself to mine.
Thank  you for your time. And here's to life...
Barkeep  we need to go  around again. One  for me and "what's his name"
 my new  best friend. So deal  me in and I'll pick my cards  up off the
 floor. I'll see your lucky  coin and raise a pack of lies. Smile  to the
 girl at the door, another  four-dollar whore. But don't look  her in the
 eyes she'll break your  heart. We came all  the way from Taipei  today.
 Still Bangkok's  pissin' rain and we're goin'  blind again and I haven't
seen  my girl for fifteen  thousand miles.
Well  is it true it's always happy  hour here?
And  if it is I'd like to stay  a while.
Well  as cliche  as it may sound  I'd like to raise  another round.
 And if your bottle's  empty help  yourself to mine.
Thank  you for your time. And here's to life...

 And if it is I'd like to stay a while.
Well  as cliche  as it may sound  I'd like to raise  another round.

Well  as cliche  as it may sound  I'd like to raise  another round.
 And if your bottle's  empty help  yourself to mine.
Thank  you for your time. And here's to life. And here's to life.
 Mmm Hmm Mmm. And here's to life. And here's to life...again.
