wasted at 3 in the morning - three-part vocals and a rhythm guitar is all you need - first take - something worked - percussion, glock and bass added 10 minutes later

lyrics

nobody knows what's best to do
stand in line or hop the queue
whichever way when you get to the front
make sure they give you what you want

keeping on an even
keeping on an even keel

everybody wants to stay afloat
keep heaving the oars don't rock the boat
you've got nothing to lose but there's nothing to find
so spend your time just wasting time

keeping on an even
keeping on an even keel

alarm bells ring in the morning
you've got to get up and go to work again
but it's ok it'll soon be the weekend and we can all go out and get wasted
if we can wait that long

keeping on an even
keeping on an even keel
