Rupert Drinks Water

[Verse 1]
And it's often asked
Why Rupert drinks vodka alone
Outside the coffee bar he really knows how to laugh
With imaginary friends every night between dusk and dark

[Verse 2]
And he'll say since you asked
That is none of your business you nosy bastard
For he's ruptured within with the guilt of his sins
That have blown through his life
Like the chillest of winds
Since the summer of sixty nine

[Verse 3]
A botched affair in a bed sits somewhere
Came to me more as the years wazed by
And all he sees in the maelstrom of a life
At the end of the time tunnel
A tomb of memories the eyes of the boy he let died
And the eyes of the girls he made cried
