Secret Army - Fired in Christmas lyrics

Walking down the blinking lights It's kinda cold today Well, around here it never snows but it's Christmas time again I go downtown to see my mates tonight I'm gonna get drunk It was my last day at job cause I've been fired in Christmas The boss took me to his office and he told me here it goes son The company has been sold and half the lot have to go So here I am with a check in my hand going down the bar With a silly smile on my face, I'm gonna get drunk tonight I step into the bar all my mates are there, everybody's happy and drunk I order a beer, then two, then three and I start to feel alright One our later I'm drunk as hell, we toast to crappy jobs Happy f**ing Christmas to everyone we are gonna burn this city tonight And the girl at the front catches my eye I ask her for a kiss and she gives me a smack And all around me everybody smiles Alcohol has taken me to the promised land Tomorrow I'll wake up alone again With hammers striking my head Life is just a cruel joke Boy you gotta get a new job Oh, yeah...I've been fired in Christmas
