t's been another shitty day,
And I'd wish my life away.
But it looks like I'm here to stay.
So I'm drinking the day away.

It's been another crazy fight.
No-one's wrong and no-one's right.
But I'll be sleeping alone tonight.
Because someone ain't quite gotten even.

Drinking in the daytime.
It's just something I'm doing
'Cos there's a hurricane brewing.
And if I make it through this difficult time
I'm thinking of whiskey and wine.
'Cos they're two friends of mine.
And they're helping me through today.

It makes no sense, it makes no sense,
It makes no sense to doubt it
There's no defence, there's no defence,
There's no defence without it.
You're too intense, you're too intense,
You're too intense about it.
Repent, repent, repent.
Nope!

Since it all began.
Within the hearts of men.
There was a natural need to feel oblivion.
And the right to decide your medicine.
Sipping gin or shooting heroin.
There's a sin and a price to the vice you're in.
And it isn't you who's deciding.
If it's on prescription or legally controlled.

Only those who know HOW to rock know WHEN to roll.

That's right, baby that's right.
Gotta hold on tight, gotta hold on tight.
That's right, baby that's right.
Gotta hold on tight, gotta hold on tight.

Gotta hold on tight, gotta hold on tight.
Gotta hold on tight, gotta hold on tight.

'Cos if you're drinking in the daytime,
That's your right.
