lyrics

almonds deep in sanded skin
it sounded neat soaking in
a myriad of spice and oats
raisined in the milk of goats
i can't bear it
hearing drips and drops and sips
of the red wine that my lips missed
that trickled down from chin to chest
and mingled round a bubbled breast
i can't bear it
i can't stand it

so i will swallow and repeat
i will swallow and repeat
i will swallow and repeat
but it isn't cheap
my pockets aren't deep
the boxed wine adding up in a heap

the crinkle crack and crunch of cans
was full now empty lips to hands
the fire leapt roared and licked
i don't know what time is it
am i being too loud
i think that i will drink to that
a cheers to down a stem and cap
with cigarettes impaling lips
that cash that my pockets have missed
i am not proud
am i being too loud

i will someday find
the courage to stand on my
own two feet then i
will make my own red wine
i will, i will

i will swallow and repeat
i will swallow and repeat
i will swallow and repeat
it'll be cheap
with pockets so deep
rinse the bottles refill and repeat
refill and repeat
