The night passed
Sorrow drowned in my whiskey glass
As I tried to forget
The dawn came
The light barged in to awake my shame
With a newborn regret
I need a cigarrette

Chorus:
Take a shower
Wash it all off
Got to get myself together cos this just cannot happen anymore
I gotta stop
I gotta clean up
I keep shooting my big mouth off
I can't let this happen anymore

I'm toxic
Knock a coffee back for a caffeine kick
Can't open my eyes
My hands twitch
Nicotine patch don't scratch the itch
But I'll make it this time
Gotta make it this time

(Chorus)

I gotta find another way to escape
I keep putting my foot in my mouth like a 2 bit ape
I gotta find a better way to flick the switch
Than running round town like a clown turned lunatic

Take a shower
Wash it all off
Got to get myself together cos this just cannot happen anymore
I gotta stop
I gotta clean up
I keep shooting my big mouth off
I have been here many times before
And I have said this many times before
