  • Last night I told ya I loved ya
    Woke up, blamed it on the vodka
    I genuinely thought I was dying
    And I could see that smile you were hiding

    Last night I told ya, "I need ya"
    That's the last time I drink tequila
    Super-Lemon and his sidekick Salt-Kid
    I start cryin' and verbally assaulting

    Last night I asked you to marry me
    That's when I remembered the brandy
    I wake up and claim I didn't say it
    Screwed if I ever wake up in Vegas

    Wish I could stop and I'm not joking
    Drinking too much and socially smoking
    Wish I could stop and start to behave
    And then wake up in the morning and never miss a day again

    Last night police had to frisk me
    In the cells thanks to Bell's fine whiskey
    I think I said too much like
    "Do you like my bracelets?
    Oh wait, they're handcuffs"

    Last night I said, "I want your babies"
    Forget the ice
    It's not nice to drink Baileys
    I drink that much that I forget
    Whatever embarrassing thing I say next

    You said I got on one knee, and there's no way
    Unless I've been drinking, oh, wait, Rosé
    Sailor Jerry's Rum
    I think I drank too much
    Showing randomers way too much love

    Last night I called you a "loser"
    I think that was after flamin' Sambuca
    I shouted at you, "Do me a favor!"
    And that's when I fell off the pavement

    Wish I could stop and I'm not joking
    Drinking too much and socially smoking
    Wish I could stop and start to behave
    And then wake up in the morning and never miss a day again

    'Cause I'd love to learn when to shut my mouth
    Wake up in the morning and be in my own house
    Do one last shot and know when to stop
    No more photos on Facebook of me doing the robot

    Know when to leave and when to lock my front door
    Stop waking up in trees and in a bed full of people
    Sitting in a cupboard with my weird best friend
    But I'm only young
    So, I'm not gonna pretend

    I wish I could stop 'cause I'm not joking
    I love drinking too much and socially smoking
    Don't wanna stop or learn to behave
    Amen
    And I, hey, just missed another day again Writer/s: Lucy Spraggan
