Tubthumping is a great tune, especially when out drinking with friends. The song doesn't belong on a radio as much as it belongs on a jukebox.

Drinking might be the operative word here! I'll take your word for it!

It's right there in the lyrics:

Pissin' the night away, pissin' the night away
He drinks a Whiskey drink, he drinks a Vodka drink
He drinks a Lager drink, he drinks a Cider drink
He sings the songs that remind him of the good times
He sings the songs that remind him of the better times
Don't cry for me, next-door neighbour

...and someone drunk can't tell you if all those repeated lines, about getting knocked down but getting back up again, were twice or twenty times.
