about

We at Cold Sleep love nothing more than playing shows and smashing bevvies with mates afterwards. We wrote ON THE BEERS in isolation as an anthemic love letter to absent friends that we can't wait to see again.
In the tradition of classic Aussie pub rock, On the Beers will have you banging your head before you've downed the first pint. We can't wait to get on the beers with you all in person soon, but until then, crack open a cold one and rock out with us at home ;)

lyrics

Lyrics:
I’m standing half cut at the bar
I’m wondering where the hell you are
It’s your friends birthday, the round is on the house
And we erupt into a chorus of cheers
Now all my drinkings done at home
Your friend’s birthday, well she’s spending it alone
It seems like years since we were on the beers

It will be so good to see you again
But we’ll have to cross our fingers until then

My garden’s really looking good
My cooking is delicious, and I guess it’s understood
It could be worse than being locked in here
We could be homeless and on the street
Still, all those times with absent friends
Are only memories, I hope they come again
It feels like years since we were on the beers

It will be so good to see you again
But we’ll have to cross our fingers until then
