Pass The Flagon Lyrics

Pass The Flagon lyrics

Look at the moon above our heads Oh the night is old but it's not dead Let's
talk of the things that we used to do 'Cause the future looks too bleak My
body's floatin' out in the stars The alcohol seems to cleanse the scars As
another bottle hits the ground I feel as empty as it sounds So pass the flagon
down the line It don't taste bad for such cheap wine And now the only thing
left to forget Is that picture of her Well i awake and everything's bright Oh
my eyes they can't adjust to the morning light My body's achin' with the cold I
feel about a hundred years old So i stagger down to the D.S.S. To try to get
myself a counter cheque But an hour in line's an hour of wasted time And i want
to break their necks You see my wife she couldn't stand the pain Left one
morning on the evening train And now the only thing left to forget is that
picture of her You see my dad was one too you know He couldn't forget I don't
feel proud following his footsteps Although the backs of his feet are just a
memory From sometime long ago Gettin' back to the park again Johnny borrowed
some money off a friend And we washed down the morning with Some port and
curled up in the shade You see my job was boring So i got the sack Spent the
next twelve years on my back And the mortgages came and Sucked my house down
the drain Now these four winds they blow all around me You see my wife She
couldn't stand the smell Left me here to rot in hell And now the only thing
left to forget Is that picture of her
