Manana

Smash the buffers or go off the rails, it’s all the same when life’s break fails

Hit a mountain, or crash in the sea

Makes no difference as all can see

 

Skies of lead, grey with gloom, spinning eyes and spinning room

Drank too much and I’ve been chundering

Drank too much, head now thundering

 

Smash the buffers or go off the rails, it’s all the same when life’s break fails

Hit a mountain, or crash in the sea

Makes no difference as all can see

 

Knock it back to drown that pain, knowing it’ll just come back again

Heart plays a rhythm with lots of bass

Misery showing on a careworn face

 

Smash the buffers or go off the rails, it’s all the same when life’s break fails

Hit a mountain, or crash in the sea

Makes no difference as all can see

 

No more booze is what you’re thinking, but all the while you go on drinking

I’ll quit it soon, that’s what you say

And manana will be that magic day

 

Smash the buffers or go off the rails, it’s all the same when life’s break fails

Hit a mountain, or crash in the sea

Makes no difference as all can see
