"Screams In The Ears" lyrics - BILL FAY

Offer your sherry to somebody else
I've got nothing to say
'Cept my wife's in the bedroom with everyone else
But I don't want to play

Will you stop asking me who I am?
Go and find someone else
To tell your jokes to
What a great party this is

Though you've got me alone, the records still moan
I've got nothing but screams in my ears
I've just put a cigarette out
No thanks, I don't want another beer

Will you stop asking me who I am?
Go and find someone else
To tell your jokes to
What a great party this is

Well they told me the budgerigar
Committed suicide
But it was you, I saw you put that gin in its water
I was standing by your side

Will you stop asking me who I am?
Go and find someone else
To tell your jokes to
What a great party this is
