Staring At The Stars

Tobacco stains our yellow teeth
 And all our fingers and underneath
 Our finger nails are glass bone sheets
 As we try desperately to sleep
 Hearts are saddened, eyes are tired
 And all this Red Bull keeps us wired
 It gives us wings, it gives us rings
 Around our eyes
 We put three sugars in our tea
 Sit to watch day time TV
 And laugh at moms who don't know
 Who the father is
 And all our girlfriends are long gone
 We watch too much internet porn
 Who needs love when you've got silicone
 And strap-ons?
 ♪
 Beer bloats our spoiled guts
 And shit jobs keep us in ruts
 And keep us sighing up the whats and ifs
 And buts and maybes and
 Falling over in the street
 It's just a part of every week
 When we lie drunkenly
 Just staring at the stars
 Remember when they were in reach
 And all the teachers used to teach
 You can do anything
 If you put your mind to it
 We put our minds to it all
 But disappointment crashed the ball
 We could have done anything
 We just never quite knew it, so...
 Tie your scarf on tight
 It's to be a cold night
 Tie your scarf on tight
 It's to be a cold night
 Tie your scarf on tight
 It's to be a cold night
 Tie your scarf on tight
 It's to be a cold night
