When I was younger I felt so pure 

I didn't know corruption waited for me 

I tried to duck, I tried to freeze 

Tried to bury my head in the sand 

But the sand it turned to mud 

And in the mud is where I got stuck 

But the sand it turned to mud 

And in the mud is where I got stuck 



Ahooo! ahooo! ahooo! ahooo! 



I've seen the older men who smelt like booze 

... in their clothes (?) 

How could they face the morning 

With their life and teeth in a mess 



Ahooo! ahooo! ahooo! ahooo! 



I tried cigarettes, I tried booze 

I tried tip-ex and I tried glue 

All my feelings and morals are wrong 

Cause all the chemicals that I have done 

They turn them on and off 

They turn them on and off 



I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!) 

I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!) 



Something clicked and I fell off the edge 

I bashed my head again and again 

I lost myself in lifes of shame 

How could I face the morning clawing up at me? 



I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!) 

I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!) 



I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!) 

I need a cigarette (ahooo!) 

I need a drink (ahooo!)
