and i started to drink

The story:

On the stereo i swore it was drink, but then i had a party and i was singing "drink" and a friend laughed at me so to prove my correctness i got my book of lyrics (with the London singles boxset) and was proven wrong in front of everyone (it was place, my book, my stereo, my cd and i still got it wrong!). When i listened to it on headphones, it all came a bit clearer.
