Bottle Bank

from Forest Floor (Single) by Laurie Shaw

lyrics

I bet he thinks he's James Bond
With his protein shake
We both know I stir you
I bear you
We both know what happened
In the undergrowth last night

If only he knew
That the bargain perfume he bought for you
Would ensnare somebody new

I won't forget that second glance
At the bottle bank
I plummet like transparent glass
And I smash
At the bottle bank

This is proper love sickness
I can only see the spaces between the words
This is cold compresses in the living room
"Thanks very much"
Watching The Sweeney on ITV 4

I want to drown in your patchouli oil
I want to propagate your soil and then after
Maybe meet your mum and dad?

I won't forget that second glance
No thanks
At the bottle bank
Enveloped in the smell of the recycling plant
Dead rank
At the bottle bank

New Years Eve 2008
Couldn't get a grasp on the shape
The angles in Eastenders were all weird
Phil Daniels talking fast and slow
Fast and slow at once

I remember your scent
I remember what you said
When you said
"Do you want to come round"
I don't know what you meant
But it could have been good
