Alcoholic Breakfast Blues

I get up in the morning
It's 3 p.m.
The head feels like a car crash
I'll have a beer in a can
When I get back to my bed
I can't believe my eyes

She says "baby,
Did you have good sleep?
Oh, baby
I feel so deep!"
I think, oh my good
I must get out of here

Chorus:
Now leave me alone
I think you're gonna find your way home
I don't care what I've done
And I'm gonna drink my breakfast alone

She swears and calls me
A lot of bad bad things
If she knew me
She wouldn't for what it brings
Is nothing baby
Nothing's gonna change my mind

As she leaves
The can is halfway to empty
And so my mood
Starts to turn friendly
I open a window
And think I'll have a piss

Chorus:
When I think about yesterday
I'm quite staggered I found my way
But I always found it somehow
And had my breakfast without feeling low

To recreate my memory
I read through my notes
Some horribly written poetry
I better check the answerphone
A friend of mine
Telling me to fuck off

Though my mouth
Taste's like I've eaten a cat
I roll cigarette
Nothing to regret
But then it catches me
Why my friend's so mad

Chorus:
I know where that girl came from
And that she shouldn't have stayed with me
It ain't nice to fuck your buddy's girlfriend
But who cares, I've got my alcoholic breakfast
