Window Shopping for Blinds The Beautiful South

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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?

[Chorus]
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
