Window Shopping For Blinds - The Beautiful South

Written by:Paul Heaton/Dave Rotheray

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 coc*ine 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
