Oh dear
It happened again
I opened a beer
I got onto the drunkards' train
Oh, dear,
Don't you worry
I'm going to hurry
I'll be home before midnight (I swear)
Oh dear
The driver is drunk
but so am I
So I don't really give a damn
Who's that
In the hood,
Holding the scythe...
Could he be the answer to my prayers?
Oh my,
Was that a crash?
I don't know...
Why am I surrounded by flames...
Oh, dear,
I can't be with you anymore
I didn't keep my promise
I wasn't home by midnight...
Oh, dear,
I have only one question unanswered:
Is now a good time to tell you I'm cheating on you?
