Rum Thunderbird

(album: Having It Both Ways - 1996)

Rum, Thunderbird wine and Coke
Snakebite and skunk, a snort and a smoke
I wanna get legless and fly like a bird
That's the most natural thing in the world

I get up each morning at twenty to seven
I work till it's way after five
Yes sir and no sir, I'm Mister Control sir
I do what I need to survive

I go out each evening, get drunk with my buddies
Crawl back in the dead of the night
Lying in bed when I'm out of my head
I can feel what I need deep inside

Rum, Thunderbird wine and Coke
My mouth is as dry as the back of my throat
I'm wrecked in the bedroom and ready to hurl
That's the most natural thing in the world

Flying with CDs and Es at the flat
On a weekend my best friend and I
Are smoking and drinking and both of us thinking
The things we all think when we're high

The ceiling is reeling, I know how you're feeling
About to crash out for the night
If we became closer well no one would know
So roll over and switch out the light

Rum, Thunderbird wine and Coke
To tell you the truth I need to be juiced
I wanna get naked and scream like a girl
That's the most natural thing in the world

Rum, Thunderbird wine and Coke
I wanna be touched, I wanna be groped
I'm wrecked in the bedroom and ready to hurl
That's the most natural thing in the world

Rum, Thunderbird wine and Coke
Snakebite and skunk, a toot and a toke
I wanna get legless and high as a bird
'Cause that's the most natural thing in the world
That's the most natural thing in the world
