[Verse 1]
So this is summer
And the Calor Gas is running low
But I don't mind
I'm doing things and I'm doing them with you
Well, you know he's gonna want his rent tonight
But we'll have to tell him how to swallow
All the rent this month

[Verse 2]
So summer stains
The sky with inky swirls that bring the thunder low
But I don't mind
I'm doing things and doing them with you
And if you're smart, you'll put that book back down
You'll drag me to the floor
Drag me down for more

[Chorus]
Drinking wine
Drinking wine in the afternoon
Do-do-n-do
Drinking wine
Drinking wine in the afternoon
Do-do-n-do
[Verse 3]
Tomorrow's Thursday, that's my day of work
That's my day of walking up the Maryhill Road making up
Some lie about some job applied for

[Chorus]
Well, I've been drinking wine
Oh, I've been drinking wine in the afternoon
Do-do-n-do

[Bridge]
Fifty Regal filters left their filthy butts behind
Left their blackened heads down
In the ashes that's the last before
They're pulled apart and placed within the papers
For a drag, a fag deserves a second life
Deserves a second life
Don't we all? Don't we all?
Don't we all? Don't we all, all?

[Chorus 3]
Love drinking wine
Love drinking wine in the afternoon (Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Do-do-n-do (Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Love drinking wine
Love drinking wine in the afternoon (Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba)
Do-do-n-do (Ba-da-ba-ba-ba-ba)
[Outro]
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
Bottle of wine, bottle of wine
