A spider drowns in the damp on my wall
There's a pile of bills over ten feet tall
What's that? rain upon my head
There's a hole in the roof right above my bed
Well shall I go drinking it might stop me thinking
Take the pain away
But if I go drinking I know what you'll be thinking
But you're not the one awake
At 4 a.m.
At 4 a.m.
I think I'll watch some T.V
The licence people won't be up to catch me
I'll settle for a cuppa tea
And a little something to make me feel ire
Well I could go drinking it would stop me thinking
Take the pain away
But if I go drinking I know what you'll be thinking
But you're not the one awake
At 4 a.m.
At 4 a.m.
Well my emotions run high
I can see the blood in my eyes
I don't care much for my health
Coz I ain't got no wealth and my only escape
Is when I get to sleep
And now the world is awake
I finally fall asleep
Dreaming I am awake
And the clock on the wall hasn't yet reached eight
Well I'm going drinking it keeps me from thinking
Takes the pain away
And I don't care much for what you're all thinking
Coz you haven't been awake
Since 4 a.m.
4 a.m.
You're not the one awake
You're not the one awake
You're not the one awake
At 4 a.m.
You're not the one awake
No you're not the one awake
No you're not the one awake
At 4 a.m.
