Kevin Ayers - Champagne & Valium Lyrics
Champagne and valium - half-hearted kisses;Lord, wont you tell meWhat kind of breakfast this is.God said, cool it, boy, youve sure got a nerve..Youve already had much more than you deserve.Shut your mouth, and go home, boy.. .Looks like Im leaving, leaving again;Same old ticket, babe, same old train.No destination, but who ever knowsJust where it is that anyone goes..Tell me where they all go to.Oh, doctor, doctor, can you feel my pain?Doctor said, shit man, not you again!Just how many times do I have to explain:There aint no medicineThatll take you back againTo where you were again.To where you were, before, boy.Its what you feelIts not what you thinkCant taste no wineIf you dont drink.You dont know howAnd you sure dont know why.Youre just like the restAnd all you can do is tryTry to catch hold of that dream, boy....Champagne and valium - half-hearted kisses;Lord, wont you tell meWhat kind of breakfast this is.God said, cool it, boy, youve sure got a nerve..Youve already had much more than you deserve.Shut your mouth, and go home, boy....
