Alcohol Lyrics - In The Studio - The Special A.k.a.

An icy wind blows through the door 

You feel like you've been here before 

You tremble and you start to sweat 

The symptoms of withdrawal 

Alcohol 

Why do you do it? 

Why do you keep beating me? 

You give some people a real good time 

But you cause some untold misery 

Heroin 

Why do you do it? 

I don't like what I've seen 

You promise someone a real good time 

And then you take them from their family 

You tremble and you start to sweat 

You don't want to withdraw 

And when your flesh begins to crawl 

You'd rather not be here at all 

Alcohol 

How do you do it? 

Please don't do it to me 

You give some people a real good time 

But you cause some untold misery
