Sue turn out the lights

It's time to close up¨c¨cwe're through

Gotta clear it out

So let's drink up it's past two

Girl don't push 'em out

They can walk out on their own

How many times i gotta tell you bob

You gotta drink up and go home

I don't run a business

Just to talk to you all day

Clear out the backroom sue

Stack up the chairs

Who broke this glass?

No one really cares

Go take the trash out

And vacuum the stairs

What do i

Pay you for?

And don't forget to sweep up

The glass off the floor

Once i had plans

To fix up this place

A room where you could go to

And meet people with taste

They'd talk and they'd laugh

And forget the rat race

And i'd be just like one of those guys

With the moustache and face

Hey help me pick up this case

Hey i'm really sorry i blew up then

I've had no sleep

I've been up all night with my wife and brother-in-law

You know pete

At times this world can seem

Just like a cold icy ball

But don't let that discourage you

'cause you're young¨c¨ctake that call

And if it's my wife

Just try and stall

I was just wondering

How you get home

Do you have a boyfriend?

Or do you live alone?

I'm going your way

If you're going mine

No i feel fine

But before you go

Let me just pass on one thing

Chorus:

You've got a mission in life

To hold out your hand

To help the other guy out

Help your fellow man

That's why i own this bar

They're thirsty outside

I give 'em oceans to drink

Then they drown in the tide

Repeat once then repeat they just drown in the tide four times
