"Grounds For Divorce"
(Elbow / Guy Garvey)

[Intro:]
Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid

I've been working on a cocktail called "Grounds For Divorce"
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleep
Doubt comes in 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

[Pre-Chorus:]
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall

[Chorus:]
Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid

There's this whispering of jokers doing "Flesh by the Pound"
To a chorus of supposes from the little town hoods
There'll be twisted karaoke at the Aniseed Lounge
And I'd bring you further roses but it does you no good
And it does me no good
And it does you no good

[Pre-Chorus:]
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall

[Chorus:]
Someday we'll be drinking with the seldom seen kid
