I'd Rather Drink Than Talk
Sator · Headquake [1992]
that will make you clap your hands,
kick your feet, and as a matter of fact,
it will tear you up"
It's another Saturday night
and I'm out on my own
I need a drink I'm so messed up
I wanna be alone
Got some money in my pocket
and some trouble in my mind
Don't wanna talk about it
I haven't got enough time
So why don't you
Shut up take a walk
I'd rather drink than talk...
It's another Saturday night
Don't wanna talk to you
You're nothing but a waste of time
Don't like you're attitude
So why don't you...
Well I've had enough
Come on give me a break
Don't wanna hear about your life
It's more than I can take
No I don't wanna know
I've got better things to do
Why don't you leave me alone
I've got no time for you
So why don't you ...
