After the girl from the previous song broke my heart, I drank a lot for quite some time, searching for a way to replace her I suppose

lyrics
Tell me tell me watchya gotta do to get a drink around here
It's... well maybe it's all right
that upon the lips of a delicate soul
fell a chorus of heartache as, oh my heart
fell to pieces as it fell on the floor
she said “it slipped through my fingers, I'm sorry,
but you should have thrown that old thing out”
I keep on reaching out but it's never enough.
Tell me tell me watchya gotta do to get a drink around here.
You can put it in your mouth
a cure like cock with a candy taste
with as much as you can get from a cigarette
and it comes in a handy paste
but with a vampire kiss on your bloodless lips
it'll suck your sex drive out
It's... well maybe it's all right
that upon the lips of a delicate soul
fell a chorus of heartache as, oh my heart
fell to pieces as it fell on the floor
she said “it slipped through my fingers, I'm sorry,
but you should have thrown that old thing out”
I keep on reaching out but it's never enough.
Tell me tell me watchya gotta do to get a drink around here.
You can put it in your mouth
a cure like cock with a candy taste
with as much as you can get from a cigarette
and it comes in a handy paste
but with a vampire kiss on your bloodless lips
it'll suck your sex drive out

about
Fronz Arp Brisbane, Australia
The strange machine which is Fronz Arp grinds like a tattered, angry little hurdy gurdy. With dramatic jaunt and seesawing
melodies that have been compared to weird-pop wonders, such as David Bowie and Tom Waits
“...songs full of drama and action, designed to get pulses racing and yet still sounding both intricate and adventurous” Rave Magazine
