I've been out of weeks for ages   I've been on and off the train.   I've been losing sheep   And counting sleep   And I've drunk too much again   But I'll take another cup   Even though it dry me up   Ooh, though I know that I should pass   I will take another glass      The cellar is empty, the cupboard is bare,   I'm joining the church and taking to prayer   The landlord's complaining   'cos the rent is outstanding   And old mother hubbard's ran off with the chair   Though I know it's time to stop   I will take another drop   Though I know I'm very sick   I will take just one more sip      Come on captain, punch my ticket   Call my mother's name   I once heard   That a fly can't bird   But I drunk too much again   Though I've really drunk a lot   I will take another shot   Though I know it's a time to pass   I will take just one more glass
