Squeeze Picture
Squeezewas a British rock music band that came to prominence in the new waveperiod of the late 1970s. The group formed in London in 1974. The two main writing partners in the band, Chris Diffordand Glenn Tilbrook, are widely considered to be among the finest melodic pop songwriters of their generation and have often been compared with the legendary Lennon-McCartney partnership, although unlike The Beatles, Difford and Tilbrook's direct collaboration on songs continued through most of the group's career. The original lineup of the band also included pianist Jools Holland, who went on to become a popular solo artist and bandleader, and is now best known as the host of the critically-acclaimed and highly successful British music TV show Later with Jools Holland. Squeeze's lineup in the 1980s also featured the lead vocals of Paul Carrack, who was also one of the lead singers of Mike & The Mechanicsas well as a solo artist.

I Won’t Ever Go Drinking Again Lyrics

Squeeze

(difford/tilbrook)
When daylight appears
Through a crack in the curtain
Im laying in bed
Staring up at the skirting
Im alone in my room
But someone is turning the key in the door
And I wake up to find
Its still daylight outside
Theres a taste in my mouth
Like the thoughts in my mind
And I wake up to find
That I left on the light the world can take a jump
Im feeling like a lump when daylight appears
Through a crack in my mind
I wont ever go drinking again
When daylight appears
Its the third time around
And I swear I wont drink
Ever again with that crowd
What on earth did I say
Did I let the side down Ive been guilty before
And I wake up to see
The old wonderful me
All naked and wrinkled
From knots in the sheets
And I get up to see
My hair like a tree
The world can shut the door
Because Im feeling so sore when daylight appears with my eyes full of sleep
I wont ever go drinking again
Aaaaah how my heads like an anvil
Aaaaah go the sparks as I angle
Aaaaah goes the spray from the shower
How could I smell like a flower
When I feel like weed in the rain
I wont ever go drinking again
