I am drunk and on a ladder Not the smartest way to start my night You said I'd conquer my vertigo That was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie And when we got up to the roof You opened a little flask of gin Like idiots we both fell asleep there Until the sun came up again I do the dumbest things for you Why do I do the dumbest things for you? I almost broke my collar bone I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd ever known We both went out to the party Down along Great Western Road You told the drunks I knew karate That was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie They chased us through the city centre They chased us out to the east end We had to hide behind the supermarket Until the sun came up again I do the dumbest things for you
Why do I do the dumbest things for you? I would be safer on my own I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd ever known And we just missed the last bus home So we walked it fueled by adrenaline And when I said I could do it all again That was a lie, that was a lie, that was a lie Your plans to make it big and conquer Would put Napoleon to shame I'm in a coma on the sofa Until the sun goes down again I do the dumbest things for you Why do I do the dumbest things for you? I would be safer on my own I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd ever known I do the dumbest things for you Why do I do the dumbest things for you? I would be safer on my own I didn't care, you were the most exciting thing I'd ever known
