You best call me a cab 'cos I've had enough beer
And I'm afraid to say I might just cause a scene
Look, just let me borrow your 'phone, I'm going home
To answer questions about where I've been-
If you don't ring one then I'm walking back
Which means I'm gonna get home much later than planned
I will probably fight somebody along the way
And then I'll be crucified and damned-
Right, I'll borrow someone else's fucking 'phone then
Get out of my way and let go of my arm
I need to get back to show that I care
And to weave my magical drunken charm-
Yeah, hello? can I have a taxi pleash?
One hour, you having a fucking laugh?
By the time you get here I'll be on the spirits
When I get back I'll fall asleep in the bath-
Look boys it's a quarter to three
I was gonna be home around about ten
Half the world are fast asleep
Except for 200 million Chinamen-
Okay, fuck it, that's it, I've had it
Your'e supposed to be my friends
Alright alright, one for the road and whatever
And then this evening ends-
Now look what's happening lads
Average frustrated chump is staring me out
He's coming over now, well staggering actually
Alright mate, what d'ya want? and there's no need to shout-
What do you mean I'm looking at you funny?
I was standing here just chatting and minding my own
Mate, you got the wrong end of the stick
And don't threaten me when you are stood there pissed all alone-
Now, why did you have to aim that punch at me?
'Cos that 'ain't put me in the best frame of mind
And my mates will expect me to slap you
Or stick one on you and sit you on your behind-
I'm warning you my friend to go away or else
That's my final say, so get out of my way
Oh you still want some do you? okay have this
Smack! what did I fucking say?-
Oh I 'ain't finished with you yet not by any stretch
I'm gonna down my JD first and then I'm gonna hurt you a lot
Yep, I'm done, I'm gonna' drag you up and punch you 100 times in the head
That liquid on your face is your own blood, beer and my snot-
Fetch me a fucking glass for this mug
I'm gonna smash it into his face
I warned you when you first came over
To fuck off out of this place-
Now look what you just made me do you twat
That pint glass is sticking right out of your nose
I'm about to break both your leg and your arm
Bite your ears your cheek and tear off your clothes-
I'm gonna stamp on your face you stupid little boy
I have a history of extreme violence you prick
What's that? I did'nt hear ya
Did you say get me an ambulance quick?-
You don't need a paramedic my son, oh no
You ain't gonna make it my friend
I'm gonna carve you up like a piece of beef
For you, this is the end-
Sorry, say that again? 'cos all I can hear is gurgling
What did you say underneath your breath?
Anyway, who gives a flying fuck what you think?
You are thirty seconds from death-
You best call me a cab, 'cos I've had enough beer
And I'm afraid to say I might just cause a scene
It's half past three in the bloody morning
People will wonder at where I have been-
