Lyrics Franz Ferdinand

Franz Ferdinand

Wine in the Afternoon

So this is summer

And the Calor gas is running low

But I don't mind

I'm doing things and doing them with you

Well you know he's gonna

want his rent tonight

But we'll have to tell him

Haddows swallowed all the rent this month

So summer stains

a sky with inky swirls

that bring the thunder low

But I don't mind,

I'm doing things and doing them with you

And if you're smart you'll put that book back down

You'll drag me to the floor,

drag me down for more

Drinking wine

Drinking wine in the afternoon

Doot doot n doo

Drinking wine

Drinking wine in the afternoon

Doot doot n doo

Tomorrow's Thursday

That's my day of work

That's my day of walking up the

Maryhill road making up

Some lie about some job applied for

When I've been drinking wine

Oh I've been drinking wine in the afternoon

Doot doot n doo

Fifty regal filters left their filthy butts behind

Left their blackened heads down in the ashes

That's the last before

They're pulled apart and placed within the papers

For a drag of five deserves a second life

Deserves a second life

Don't we all

Don't we all

Don't we all

Don't we all

Love drinking wine

Love drinking wine in the afternoon

Love drinking wine

Love drinking wine in the afternoon

Bottle of wine, bottle of wine...
