*from 'True Democracy' (1982)*
Intro:
(x2)
Woo!
Man no sober.
Verse 1:
The drunkard he staggers around,
The alleys of, cities and towns.
His sorrows he tries to drown,
So-lution, so-lution, so-lution to his problems,
So-lution to his problems, can never be found.
Booze is what he chooses.
Bridge 1:
Like a gypsy, he's tipsy, he drinks too much whiskey.
Like a gypsy, he's tipsy, he drinks too much.
A Mr. Winehead stagger deh,
Booze is what he chooses,
Booze is what he choose; watch him how he topples over.
Chorus 1:
,
Man no sober.
Break:
In and out of discotheques, in and out of wine bars.
Burned out shell; looks a wreck; got to help him somehow, oh.
Greets bartenders, drinks firewater, dance Bossa Nova.
Greets bartenders, drinks firewater, dance Bossa Nova; he topples over.
Chorus 2:
Man no sober,
Man no sober.
Bridge 2:
Man no sober, man no sober, man no sober.
Gypsy, he's tipsy, he drinks too much.
,
Man no sober.
Booze is what he chooses,
Booze is what he choose;
,
Watch him how he topples over.
With ...with ,
With a bottle in his hand.
Hang-over.
In and out of discotheques, in and out of wine bars.
Burned out shell; looks a wreck; got to help him somehow, oh.
Greets bartenders, drinks firewater, dance Bossa Nova.
Greets bartenders, drinks firewater, dance Bossa Nova; he topples over.
Greets bartenders, drinks firewater, dance.
Coda:
Man no sober.
Watch him how he topples over.
Man no sober.
Watch him how he topples over.
