long drop
----------
cigarettes are burning
only minutes to go
clock's on the move
gotta record to blow

smoke's in the room
can you feel the heat?
look at the time
gotta old score to beat

a friend this time
nerves on the fray
just seconds now
got to get on my way

i'll do the job
don't take a side
at 10 quid a head
there's no shame to hide

last nicotine fix
long drop to greet
OK old boy
get on your feet

CHORUS
turn around mate
it's time to go
follow me now
please don't be slow
i'll make it fast
i'll make it clean
always between 2 and 3

friday in december
13 to watch
got through with 12
the last had no box

my work is done
it's cut from my mind
i looked in just once
i'll try to be kind

i can forget now
i did my best
i was your friend
didn't go on no quest

never was just cash
only work to be done
the quickest and the cleanest
i was number one

your punishment is over
to the highest degree
and if you're in the Struggler
have a drink on me
