The Green Glass

As I walked alone in Camden
the city’s sights and smells did permeate my senses
I stepped inside the local off-license
and proceeded with an ample gallon in my hands

We drank ‘til the brink of dawn
and wallowed in the crimson bliss
shouted, laughed, and sang for hours
How had I ever missed this?

A fetching femme fatale in green glass
turns me into a graceless gymnast
A sanguine moon turns to a sanguinary thirst
but I’ve never with to lift this vampiric curse

We drank ‘til the brink of dawn
and wallowed in the crimson bliss
shouted, laughed, and sang for hours
How had I ever missed this?

We turned red each chance that we’d get
spending every dime we begged
Diving for the gracious tempter
Old Nick, we’ll never part ways

And I’ll always sing your praise
Old Nick, we’ll never part ways
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
