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 hit 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 light 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 a harvest they yield, save your tears for your evening meal, 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 light 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
