Wait for hours in the line again
Take your check, go home, and buy your bread
Or maybe down a couple of drinks instead
Don't speak your mind now
And it's time, you want to sleep
To ease your mind, where nothing runs so deep
And suicide is all you've left to meet
And still you say to me bartender, fix me one more drink
Drink alone with me 'til 5 a.m.
And she's waiting up to ask you questions
You've no answer but the rise in rent
Don't speak your mind now, you'll wake the child
And it's time you want to sleep
To ease your mind, where nothing runs so deep
And suicide is all you've left to meet
Still you say to me bartender, fix me one more drink
Don't speak your mind now
'Cause no one cares, no one's there
And it's time, you want to sleep
To ease your mind, where nothing runs so deep
And suicide is all you've left to meet
And still you say to me bartender, fix me one more drink
Had enough of everything, everything I've had
Big surprise, the years roll by, fix me one more drink
Need it all, need some more, needing everything
Still you say to me bartender, fix me one more drink
