lyrics

Around a quarter past nine I downed a bottle of booze
You got me playin' for keeps, you got me playin' to lose
Later that night I slept an hour or two
And now I'm going to work
And now I'm singin' the blues

Say your prayers and sing
Although I'll miss you more than words could ever say
I've surmised that I'll be better off
I'm better off without you anyway

Now I'm pulling into work about ten minutes late
The boss says I'm in a psychological state
"Why the hell is the coffee machine broke?!"
'Cause I'm just tryin' to pour a cup and it goes up in smoke

Say your prayers and sing
Although I'll miss you more than words could ever say
I've surmised that I'll be better off
I'm better off without you

All the nights I've psyched myself out of a restful night of sleep
Oh all the days I spent reliving past mistakes, and I've made mistakes
I hear your soothing voice call, "Pat its fine, you're an alright sort of guy"
But I just hope you know how hard I really try

Around a quarter past nine I downed a bottle of booze
You got me playin' for keeps, you got me playin' to lose
Later that night I slept an hour or two
And now I'm going to work
And now I'm singin' the blues
