I think I'm drunk enough to drive you home now
I'll keep my mouth kept shut from under lock and key
That's rusted firm, no lie
Cause all these conversations wind on and on
Drinking champagne from a paper cup
Is never quite the same
And every sip's moving through my eyes
And up into my brain
At half past two, about time to leave
Cause the DJ's playing rhythm and blues
A sad-sorry state, stutter step to those slammin' grooves
As I'm waiting around for you
I'll keep my mouth kept shut from under lock and key
That's rusted firm, no lie
Cause all these conversations wind on and on
Drinking champagne from a paper cup
Is never quite the same
And every sip's moving through my eyes
And up into my brain
At half past two, about time to leave
Cause the DJ's playing rhythm and blues
A sad-sorry state, stutter step to those slammin' grooves
As I'm waiting around for you

This song describes my night last night. I take it as someone who has had a huge fight, perhaps with his friend or girlfriend.
"I'll keep my mouth kept shut from under lock and key that's rusted firm, no lie 'Cause all these conversations wind on and on..."
It seems he started drinking to ease, or perhaps forget temporarily, the anger he feels. But the alcohol is actually making it wose, with the line "I think I'm drunk enough to drive you home now."
I don't know, after last night I can really relate to it. I'm now seeing it in a whole new light.
