(ian hunter/darrell bath/honest john plain)
Well you rang me up you say you wanna get high
Now Im underpaid and Im overtired
Riding shotgun round the world
Im too young to die, too old for the girls
You wanna know something, Ive had it with you
Another fine mess you got me into
Well, youre always in one hole or another
And I come runnin just like a brother
When are you ever going to get yourself cleared
Youll keep on running til we disappear
I cant believe the things you do
Another fine mess you got me into
Another fine mess (3)
Well thats what you get when you settle for less
Another fine mess yeah, another fine mess
Look on the bright side - smile smile smile
Relive our childhood just for a little while
Cant you see its catching it up on you
Hit me, darrell
Well, thats another fine mess you got me into
How many more times are you gonna get pissed?
How many more asses have we gotta kiss?
How many more songs have I gotta write?
How many more sessions into the night?
For some dumb fuck who dont got a clue
Another fine mess you got me into
Well you say Im kicking up too much fuss
Twenty-four hours is too long on the bus
The bands all moan and the drivers slow
Theres not enough people - too many shows
Down in the bus with the birthday blues
Another fine mess you got me into
Another fine mess (3)
Well, thats what you get when you settle for less
Another fine mess (2)
Oh, I said another fine mess - another fine mess
