Just for the Record

Lyrics for Just for the Record

Many's the time I've been thinking about changing my ways But when it gets right down to it it's the same drunken haze I'm serving a sentence to write life's sentences It's only when I'm out of it I make sense of this Just for the record I'm gonna put it down Just for the record I'm gonna change my life around Just a revolutionary with a pseudonym Just a bar room dancer on my final fling Just another writer paying off my dues Just finding inspiration well that's my excuse Just for the record I'm gonna put it down Just for the record I'm gonna change my life around Just another empty gesture with an empty glass Just another comic actor Behind a tragic mask But I've got no discipline Got no self control Just a little less painful here when my back's against the wall It's too late, I found, it's too far, I'm in two minds Both of them are out of it at the bar When you say I got a problem that's a certainty But I can put it all right down to eccentricity It's just for the record it's just a passing phase Just for the record I can stop any day
