We're gonna drink enough tonight to drown the average army

By new year's day the next door neighbour will be goin' barmy (yep,

That's how it's spelled)

The milkman arrives at midday with his usual wisecrack

Who knows a girl with wednesday legs so when's they gonna snap?

Chorus:

Why does everybody have to be so hale and hearty

Can't they see we're tryin' to have a party party party party



The last thing i remember i was talkin' to some fellas

Then she said she'd have a word for me with her good-looking mate

And handed me a pint-pot filled with advocaat and tizer

And i woke up in the flowerbed fearing fertilizer



(i would have thought "feeling fertilizer" would make more sense, but

Maybe that's just me and my strange sense of humour!)



(note: advocaat is a dutch drink, sometimes described as the "dutch

Eggnog", tizer is a scottish drink (i think), it even has its own

Chorus



Bridge:

So shift yourself and shake your bod

You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and act of god

You got to learn from your mistakes

When you got a face like last week's cornflakes



The doors and the window frames are by pablo picasso

The party decorations owned by michelangelo

The fine music that you hear is by stravinsky

With overall design by leonardo davinci



Chorus



Bridge:

So shift yourself and shake your bod

You got bullet proof insurance from fire, flood and act of god

You got to learn from your mistakes

When you got a face like last week's cornflakes



Two boys are upstairs in your bed

Three girls are downstairs cryin'

The alka seltzer in the glass is roarin' like a lion

You think you've aged 10 years tonight and still never been kissed

So you overdose on aftershave and try to slash your wrist



Chorus and fade
