lyrics

put the baby in the pram
walk her to the bottle shop
staring at the counter
as you rifle out all the change
from the pockets in your jeans

"it's a good enough day", you say, "a little windy"
and his eyes brand the back of your neck
as you limp out

i close my eyes
and inside there are sand dunes
and colourful snakes
preserved in bottles of vodka

i open them
and we are a reflection
slipping along the cards
on the factory estate

people still working
on sunday afternoon

now you're finally asleep
and the urge is gone
better find somewhere
to dump this stuff and get home
