I've got an ugly liver from drinking too much

I've got painful sliver from thinking too much

Oh I don't want to go on livin' in this rut

Oh I think I'll go out and build me a hut, but

Curiosity has got me

Tied up right back where it wants me

And all the things that you will do

Make me think I haven't got a clue

I've good a real good sense for seeking out the booze

But I can't afford to buy a pair o' shoes

And when I get some cash it's already been spent

Oh, I can smoke and drink but I can't pay my rent

I've got an ugly liver from drinking too much

I've got painful sliver from thinking too much

Oh I don't want to go on livin' in this rut

Oh I think I'll go out and build me a hut, but

Curiosity has got me

Tied up right back where it wants me

And all the things that you will do

Make me think I haven't got a clue
