| Some of my old friends say I’m self possessed
 | 
| I hope you don’t mind if I get something off my chest
 | 
| Between you and me I only go out at night
 | 
| Sunlight in my eyes just makes me uptight
 | 
| In the backroom we be drinking all night
 | 
| We be living in a vacuum
 | 
| We be looking for a fight
 | 
| In the backroom we be drinking all night
 | 
| We be running out of headroom
 | 
| We be looking for a fight
 | 
| Crowd was thinning out
 | 
| And he came through the door
 | 
| I look right at him
 | 
| He looks at the floor
 | 
| Awkward glances catch the thread long ago
 | 
| I’m seeing red
 | 
| Does your sister dress you up
 | 
| Does the devil know you’re dead
 | 
| I don’t know if Gabriel keeps a place for me
 | 
| I still want to go to heaven & see what I can see
 | 
| I don’t want to have St Peter close the gate on me
 | 
| I still want to get to heaven & be what I can be
 | 
| We had moved to the place
 | 
| I heard them say 'Last Call'
 | 
| I stepped over all of them
 | 
| And walked on down the hall
 | 
| The man says not to wait for judgment
 | 
| It comes everyday
 | 
| Absolution at a price
 | 
| And we all have to pay
 | 
| In the backroom we be drinking all night
 | 
| We be living in a vacuum
 | 
| We be looking for a fight
 | 
| In the backroom we be drinking all night
 | 
| We be running out of headroom
 | 
| We be looking for a fight
 | 
| I don’t know if Gabriel keeps a place for me
 | 
| I still want to go to heaven & see what I can see
 | 
| I don’t want to have St Peter close the gate on me
 | 
| I still want to get to heaven & be what I can be
