I’m Not Drunk

 

If it’s true a drunk man leads a sad life
That’s what they say, from day to day
Then what do the sober do with their lives?
On judgment day, with nothin’ to say?

I’ve been beat up, I’ve been thrown out
But I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk
I’ve been shown up, but I’ve grown up
And I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk

On my own I drank a can of Carling
In strange streets
Well they’d forgot to get the Tenents Special Brew in
OVD rum
Was not on

I’ve been beat up, I’ve been thrown out
But I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk
I’ve been shown up, but I’ve grown up
And I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk

So I have lived that kind of day
When none of your drinking buddies will come out to play
Go down The Crown and hit the floor
Down Newky Brown and down some more
Depeche Mode
On the juke box, you can’t escape
But I will swig everything in my way
Luke Skywalker, rising up
Hallucinating, I’m not drinking up

So you rock round Aberdeen
With the toughest
In the world, the whole wide world
Union street is where
It gets the roughest
You been there?

I’ve been beat up, I’ve been thrown out
But I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk
I’ve been shown up, but I’ve grown up
And I’m not drunk, Oh I’m not drunk

I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
I’m not drunk
