Lyrics

An empty bottle is a sad sad sight to see
At the end of an evening
One glass eye is staring at me
An empty bottle tells you why I’m on my own
Lord a drunk is just a switchboard
When the operator’s gone home
A minute to midnight there were three fingers still
When I got my glass ready for the final fill
The clock struck twelve I raised the glass to my lip
Lost my concentration and my hand lost it’s grip
An empty bottle is a useless piece of junk
Cos when the liquor’s on the lino
It’s the lino getting drunk
I couldn’t move a muscle and everything went slow
The glass fell on the carpet and the juice began to flow
Like ink on blotting paper my last drink on the floor
God give me back just one more taste
I swear I won’t drink anymore
An empty bottle is a sad sad sight to see
At the end of an evening
One glass eye is staring at me
