When thoughts of alcohol dance in your head
Play the tape forward and go to bed
Wake up ready to face the day refreshed
Or at least feel ok
With no hellish hangover
That’s such a good reason not to frown or
Start your day on a downer
And proper sleep
You know
When you’re dreaming deep
They should bottle that stuff
When we wake up we just don’t feel as rough
We still have problems sure
Probably more than one or two
Or even more
But
There is something to be said
For playing it forward
And going to bed
And waking up feeling like you
All from not caving to a drink
You know it makes you think!
