After Hours lyrics

how in the world will i make it to work
in the morning?
i`ve been drinking since we clocked out
and now it`s 4am
But they`re such a generous couple
alfredo and pauline
When they offer a late night session,
you don`t want to offend.

The shutters come down
and thats what they`re for
we dont want to invite in the law
It`s not often the case that we`re forced
to sacrifice the jukebox.
But the plug always has to be pulled
on the quiz machine
So you imbibe all you can
cos you`re partaking in something forbiden
And time after time you`ll wake up
face down in the latrine.

We speak in hushed tones
And dim down the lights
we`re staying after hours tonight

Where am I now?
Where am I now?
Where am I now?

I dont remember a thing,
I dont remember, remember a thing

Lord only knows what kind of poison i`m drinking
I can`t read the label
So i`ll just dance off my cares like Fred Alistaire
up here on the table

The shutters come down
and thats what they`re for
we dont want to invite in the law
we speak in hushed tones
and dim down the lights
we`re staying after hours tonight!!
