Wrecking Ball

Another Friday night in trousers tight, no money sense or plan

The demon drink will see you right, scuttered to a man

Not for you the affluence that lies beyond the velvet rope

The chateau in the gutter's your only hope

You had your pints and pissed your kacks

They pulled you by the ear, you couldn't stand your ID off by years

Drinking- ready, willing and able

Sinking- See you under the table

Here's something for you all

Don't fear your beer, just get involved

If you're proud to be inebriate

It's coming straight into your face

Like a wrecking ball

Now the night is young, you're highly strung, you're drinking wine and schnapps

The yuppie life is the only life, you think it's such a laugh

Your nouveau riche and eating quiche, you're cashing in and cooking books

But too much coke is ruining your looks

You rake it in and live in sin

You're playing futures in your prime

You're pissing up on borrowed time

You want the finest cakes, the finest wines,

You want here and now

Just like the bull loosed from the gate

Who wants to have sex with those cows

You'll take the bastard axe to anybody in your way

No matter what the bar tab is you'll gladly pay

Throw yourself into the road escaping this hideousness

Hanging ever since you had your fiftieth
