Lyrics Just the One - The Levellers

Just the One

So you fancy a drink, just the one,
To clear your head, it won’t be long,
It’s a beautiful day to waste away,
There’s plenty of time for another one.
You know you shouldn’t do it But can’t see no reason why,
So you blow your mind yeah yeah ah ha.
Make mine a short, I’m getting there
But where is it i couldn’t care
There must be something I haven’t tried
Perhaps that bottle before my eyes.
Through the haze the sun goes down
It’s getting late, let’s hit the town
Call some friends to paint it red
Feed the animal in your head.
They throw you out, you hit the night
Go to a club, you feel all right
You get a pill, just take half
Then take the rest of it for a laugh.
The rest is blank and that’s the worst
An empty head for an empty purse
You had a laugh or so you think
But in the morning you just stink.
You know you shouldn’t do it But can’t see no reason why,
So you blow your mid yeah yeah ah ha.
So you fancy a drink, it’s just the one
To clear your head, it won’t be long.
