Lyrics

"They try in vain our minds to chain"(repeats)

I'm up in the stars
I'm looking down at the gutter
When I'm good, I'm very good
But when I'm bad, I'm better

(Chorus)
Oh barman fill this glass again
And keep on pouring 'til death says 'when'
Oh barman, fill it to the top
And we'll be drinking 'til the singing has to stop

"They try in vain our minds to chain"(repeats)

A b c d e f g
The only notes that matter
When I'm good, I'm very good
But when I'm bad, I'm better

(Chorus)
Oh barman, fill this glass again
And keep on pouring 'til death says 'when'
Oh barman fill it to the top
And we'll be drinking 'til the singing has to stop

"Run from fire and dreamt of fire"(repeats)

"They try in vain our minds to chain"(repeats)

"Me and all my friends are coming 'round to your house
And we're not going to go until we get thrown out"(repeats)

(Chorus)
Oh barman, fill this glass again(repeats)

"They try in vain our minds to chain"(repeats)
"To chain" (repeats)
