Tossers, The – Drinking In The Day

Well I met her up on Leeson Street of a Tuesday afternoon

In Summer’s fallen colours, sulking back to school

I asked her would she linger, and she asked me would she stay

Would she keep a girl in company, drinking in the day?

Drinking, Drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, Drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

She was almost a woman, she was going on sixteen

She asked me to go walking, In Saint Stephen’s Green

She said I love the sunshine, and to hear the children play.

But I won’t be distracted when I’m drinking in the day.

With her flashing eyes and milk white lies she looked like a song

Like the ghost of a woman that first made me go wrong

She said I’ll have a drink with you but I said you’ll have to pay

For a comprehensive education

Drinking in the day

Drinking, Drinking

Drinking and not thinking

Drinking, Drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

If her mother could have seen us on that bright November day

Botticelli and his angel perambulating Ormand Quay

A drunken blessed virgin, me rhetorious and gay

Bestowing ancient wisdom as to what made me this way

Well here it is:

Deny your friends and family

To serve you must betray

Break and enter heaven

Well you’ll steal but never save

Well you’ll squander every penny

And you’ll empty every heart

And you’ll travel every darkened road

You’ll never finish what you start

And you’ll always talk to strangers

And make love with whom you may

For God will find good company

for your drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking and not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

So spend your youth on poetry, and spend your cash at play

Every line upon my face is for a girl who went away

A kiss, and a song, are fleeting things and fame will always stray

So I’ll tell the truth, the best spent youth, is the one you throw away

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking, drinking

We’ll go drinking in the day

Drinking, drinking

Drinking… not thinking

Drinking…
