Happy Hour (John Peel 03/06/86) - The Housemartins

It's happy hour again

I think I might be happy if I wasn't out with them

And they're happy, it's a lovely place to be

Happy that the fire is real, the barman is a she

Where the haircuts smile

And the meaning of style

Is a night out with the boss

Where you win or you lose

And it's them who choose

And if you don't win then you've lost

What a good place to be

Don't believe it

'Cause they speak a different language

And it's never really happened to me (it's happy hour again)

Don't believe it, oh no

'Cause it's never really happened to me (it's happy hour again)

It's another night out with the boss

Following in footsteps overgrown with moss

And he tells me that women grow on trees

And if you catch them right they will land upon their knees

Where they open all their wallets

And they close all their minds

And they love to buy you all a drink

And as we ask all the questions

And you take all your clothes off

And back to the kitchen sink

What a good place to be

Don't believe it

'Cause they speak a different language

And it's never really happened to me (it's happy hour again)

Don't believe it, oh no

'Cause it's never really happened to me (it's happy hour again)

What a good place to be

Don't believe it

'Cause they speak a different language

And it's never really happened to me

Don't believe it, oh no

'Cause it's never really happened to me (it's happy hour again)

Don't believe it, don't believe it (it's happy hour again)

Don't believe it

It's happy hour again, and again, and again

It's happy hour again, and again, and again

It's happy hour again, and again, and again

It's happy hour again
