Lyrics
GET THE DRINKS IN
Copyright July 2003 Lyrics by Sarah Thurlow
Music by Paul Jeffery
talkin to a handsome stranger
alarm bells ringin, danger, danger
what you thinkin, you been drinkin?
you're talkin like a dumb teenager
actin sad, you must be mad
lets drop this subject
get the drinks in
Told you once, won't keep repeatin
feel like a parrot on your shoulder
you're crowdin me and im retreatin
quit tellin me im gettin older!
cool it son, we're havin fun
so drop this subject
get the drinks in
I don't know what to say to you, to make you go away
but while we're here let's have a few, the bar is out that way
I think you maybe read too much
into a drunken lonely touch
won't love you babe, not now or ever
you're breakin every straw you clutch
won't marry you, forget forever
just drop this subject
get the drinks in
I don't know what to say to you to make you go away
but while we're here let's have a few, the bar is out that way
and in the mornin when you wake, you won't recall tonight
your head will ache, your hands will shake, the sun will be too bright
but i'll be dancin later on, beneath the disco lights
