Sunday Song Lyric:
http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_03_01-2009_03_07.shtml#1235928991
I am really into [1]The Seldom Seen Kid by [2]Elbow. Don't ask why,
but I'm quite surprised how much I like the album -- the whole thing.
One of the singles is "Grounds for Divorce" -- which is, we're told, a
cocktail. Here's the first verse and chorus:
I�ve been working on a cocktail called �Grounds For Divorce�
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleeve
Down comes him on sticks but then he kicks like a horse
There�s a Chinese cigarette case and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
There�s a hole in my neighborhood down which of late I cannot help
but fall
There�s a hole in my neighborhood down which of late I cannot help
but fall
The full lyrics and a live performance of the song can be found
[3]here. YouTube has [4]the video.
