Boys' Night
Well,
I was just fifteen years old
With a steel chain necklace and a ring of cheap gold
Looking to impress the girls with my cool
Smoking cigarettes outside the school
Well,
There was Joe and Dave and Glen
Later came Chris and me and then
Joe said let's go to his house for beers
To celebrate the start of the new school year
Well,
Dave hid the booze in the microwave
'Cos my mum was strict and I wasn't brave
Glen looked out for her car
and Joe saw her drive away from afar
Boy's night, boys' night, all night long
No parents here, what could go wrong?
Let's drink beers and smoke some hash
We all put together our spare cash
We
Watched Jean Claude Van Damme and Bruce Lee
Die Hard, Bloodsport and Fist of Fury
Ordered five pizzas to the door
And Glen set fire to the floor
We
Watched England beat Germany 5-1
We all sang out the Three Lions song
I wasn't a religious boy
But I reckon God did that to give us some joy
We
Walked to town after Dave and Joe wanted more
Tried to sneak through the nightclub door
Glen freaked out and it nearly jinxed
We got some dudes to buy us some drinks
Well,
Chris left early and we went to the park
Smoked roll ups and told jokes in the dark
We thought we saw a cop car near
And we ran back to Joe's in fear!
So
We got back at five to three
There was nothing left on TV
Glen tried to sleep in Joe's bed
Joe woke up and kicked him in the head
And
That was when Joe fell down the stairs
And Dave burnt out a few of his hairs
I slept on the sofa for an hour
They woke me with a water shower!
Then
Joe kicked us out just past eight
He said sorry lads but this can't weight
My mum is coming home soon
Look what you did to the living room!
So
I staggered home into my bed
With a chest full of cigarettes and a sore head
No, you can never put out the light
To a good old fashioned drunk boys' night!
