Lyrics: Don’t Bother Me
Album: Set The World On Fire
Artist: Annihilator
 

‘A sad yet humorous narration of an individual’s fall into alcoholism; a road I’ve
traveled but thankfully got off in time! ‘Don’t Bother Me’ features Neil’s first
musical collaboration with Annihilator as well as an excellent first solo.’

I woke up this morning
I couldn’t get out of bed
I had a couple of drinks last night
I guess it went to my head
I slept through my wake up call
Forgot to feed the cat
There’s only one thing wrong
I don’t know where I’m at
Excuse, no use, it doesn’t work for me
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
Tic toc, just look at the clock, your life is passing by
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
I’ve got to get a move on
It’s a quarter to ten
I can’t find my keys at all
Forgot my suit again
I get to work, the boss says ‘late’
This happens everyday
Once more you’ve lost your job
I don’t care anyway
Excuse, no use, it doesn’t work for me
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
Tic toc, just look at the clock, your life is passing by
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
One drink is all you’re really asking for
But you want more
Yesterday I lost my job
It doesn’t bother me
I’ll do what I want and I’ll do it again
You just wait and see
Time for a drink and no time to think
With a bottle of rum
Well I’m running low and it’s time to go
Out to get me some
Excuse, no use, it doesn’t work for me
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
Tic toc, just look at the clock, your life is passing by
You’ve had your chances, don’t bother me
