After Hours

After Hours - The Bluetones

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 four a m

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 that's what they're for

We don't 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

Cause you're partaking in something forbidden

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 don't remember a thing

I don't 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 Astaire

Up here on the table

The shutters come down

And that's what they're for

We don't want to invite in the law

We speak in hushed tones

And dim down the lights

We're staying after hours tonight
