Beautiful South Window Shopping For Blinds Lyrics

Window Shopping For Blinds Lyrics

One day I'm loaded, next day I'm broke
Spent all my money on whisky and
coke
Riding high 'till the rock hot the spoke
It's like window shopping
for blinds
Spent all my money on a sunbed tan
Spoke the best that a young
girl can
Ended up with a blind drunk man
It's like window shopping for
blinds
It's like the heartbreak hotel, with the heartbreak but nowhere to
stay
The doors are shut on us, the neon lights fading to grey
They say I
drink too much, to me, well that's just profound
How do you know you can't
swim, until you have drowned?
Well there's always a drop in the bottle
lady
Always a sip of the wine
The glass doesn't seem quite so
empty
When window shopping for blinds
It's like gatecrashing a field,
that's not true, they've harvest they yield
Save your tears for your evening
meals,
when you're window shopping for blinds
One day you're sober, next
day you're not
One day remembered, the next day forgot
Spent all my money
on cocaine and pot
It's like window shopping for blinds
Covered in bruises
from head to toe
No-one to speak to, and nowhere to go
A map of nowhere,
and nowhere I know
It's like window shopping for blinds
It's like the
heartbreak hotel, with the heartbreak but nowhere to stay
The doors are shut
on us, the neon lights fading to grey
They say I drink too much, to me, well
that's just profound
How do you know you can't swim, until you have
drowned?
Well there's always a drop in the bottle lady
Always a sip of
the wine
The glass doesn't seem quite so empty
When window shopping for
blinds
But what if my husband should come?
Well tell me what have you
done?
I've cherished my vodka, I've cherished my rum
Don't mind us, we're
just licking our wounds in the sun
It's like writing 'I love you' in
snow
You know when you write it the message will go
I want a message my
lover will find
Don't mind us, we're just window shopping for blinds
