The Fall

The Fall are an English post-punk band, formed in Prestwich, Greater Manchester, in 1976. With an ever-changing line up, the group essentially consists of its founder and only constant member, Mark E. Smith, who has said "If it's me and your granny on bongos, then it's [the] Fall". First associated with the late 1970s punk movement, the band's music has evolved through numerous stylistic changes, often concurrently with changes in the group's membership. The Fall's music is characterised by repetition, an abrasive guitar-driven sound, and is always underpinned by Smith's often cryptic lyrics, described by critic Steve Huey as "abstract poetry filled with complicated wordplay, bone-dry wit, cutting social observations, and general misanthropy." more »

A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
That's all we get for being with him all the time

I give them a 500 bottle of wine
That's all they get most of the time 

A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine

Two days in the desert
What did they get
For all of the tears and the grind
A 500 dollar bottle of wine 

We've been through desert
And blew on our shirts (and Brix' torn our last shirts?) 
And all the lightning and life
We said so much to (just a) crazy and white (whine?)
A half filled (no) bottle of wine 

A 500 dollar bottle of wine
That's all I get man most of the time. 

We been through the desert
Went through their last shirts
And all the lightning and crime
A half-filled bottle of wine. 

They're all fat gits and they get on our tits
They're all fat gits and they get on our tits

That's all you get most of the time
For all the life in crime
The 500 bottle of wine 

Drive (been) through the desert (drive for) in 36 hours
But when we get the ending we took
The 500 dollar (bottle) of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine 

And I feel real guilty
The babies are squealing
Starving and pleading all the time
A 500 dollar bottle of wine 

A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
A 500 dollar bottle of wine
You think it's gonna get on my tits
You think it's gonna get on my tits

They all bitch
They just whinge
And drink my last bottle of wine
I feel real guilty
I been through my last shirt
And I get guilty all the time 

Yeah
Come on
500 dollars 

Get down the fucking liquor store boy.
