This lad once had a problem, He came and sat by me.
I was drinkin in me local Bar, Thinkin of the sea.
He popped his tankard on a stool, and showed me its full brim.
The beer did disappear, with a sloopy yellow grin.
F - G - E - Am
I’ve not got a drinking problem, There's a problem with my glass.
I’ll say its broke before I choke, And fall upon me ass.
So have a think and realise, That you are just the same.
Or have a drink and be surprised, That you forgot me name.

So as you see, he said to me, Me tankards got a hole.
Every time I fill it up, The beer will end up gone.
So do this lad a favor, Spare a penny for some grog.
Tomorrow’ll be sick, With this party trick, and stuck upon the bog.
F - G - E - Am
I’ve not got a drinking problem, There's a problem with my glass.
I’ll say its broke before I choke, And fall upon me ass.
So have a think and realise, That you are just the same.
Or have a drink and be surprised, That you forgot me name.

About a week, It took to steep, around about my head.
Couldn't put me finger on it, What that lad had said.
So as I sat upon the bar, to think and drink bout it.
I raise me tankard have a sip, there's was nothing but a drip.
F - G - E - Am
I’ve not got a drinking problem, There's a problem with my glass.
I’ll say its broke before I choke, And fall upon me ass.
So have a think and realise, That you are just the same.
Or have a drink and be surprised, That you forgot me name.

Once again they manage to mix a fine balance of lyrical power with whimsy and musical frivolity and a massive dose of enjoyment. Always worth a listen and a record full of merit. Gavin Hellyer
