Giving up the gear 
Coz his childs nearly here 
Going out with a bang 
Not a thought for the hang 
Shouting down the microphone
Karaoke calling all lost souls..
Living for last weekend 
Setting new council estate trends
Hand to mouth and tongue in cheek 
Debt collection hide and seek 
Resurrected by the speed 
These chemicals hit his blood stream
Banging on the bandit 
His girl can not stand it
Another night alone for three
A love full of empty promises 
Shouldve listened to her mum 
He was never the one 
To take her away from round here
But maybe this time next year 
When he\'s given up the gear 
Coz his childs nearly here 
He\'ll stop living in fear 
Of a night without a beer
And she won\'t cry these tears 
And the piss stained floors
And the guiness half poured 
And the tribute singers thoughts 
On the lack of applause 
And the barmaids draws
She once found in his shorts 
Will be nothing but a distant memory, of who he never really use to be.
