Sunday Song Lyric:
I am really into The Seldom Seen Kid by Elbow. Don't ask why, but I'm quite surprised how much I like the album -- the whole thing. One of the singles is "Grounds for Divorce" -- which is, we're told, a cocktail. Here's the first verse and chorus:
I've been working on a cocktail called "Grounds For Divorce"The full lyrics and a live performance of the song can be found here. YouTube has the video.
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleeve
Down comes him on sticks but then he kicks like a horse
There's a Chinese cigarette case and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
There's a hole in my neighborhood down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighborhood down which of late I cannot help but fall
