1.You’re afraid to go out when a dark falls
A day was quite but the night is dangerous
You avoid side streets but have to plunge into
the mess of big cities where neon lights went out and there

Chorus:
A drunken snot – gives you a smack across the face
A drunken snot – a razor blade’s flash

2. You run away and don’t think about that
     what is the source of this social problem
     Daddy is right and Mum is good too
     But the son drinks and also sometimes hits   

Chorus:
A barrier of hate appeared in your memory
but think about it what your son is doing
You’re money – hungry he’s got spare time
In the side street he cut somebody’s face

Chorus:
A drunken snot – a bottle of plonk in a pocket
A drunken snot – went to the dogs.
