about

A-side of Beargarden's 3rd single.

The alcoholic overtones of the song's title influenced a decision by Countdown management not to support the product. Compounding this was a mistaken belief that the burning scarecrows appearing in the clip were burning crucifixes.

The clip wasthe second made for Beargarden by The Rich Kids (director: Paul Goldman, producer: Evan English).

lyrics

~ drinkdrinkdrink ~
.

summer times spent beating metal
in dim bars,
and here we are ...
in the cracking shell of a grey car

sometimes I can't help remembering.
sometimes I can't help remembering
these embers
know a cool thing
which left long ago.

and through the night
it rages;
DRINKDRINKDRINKDRINKDRINKDRINK
drink it away.

I'm sometimes found
sifting through the rubble of your town;
a mangy clown
who fills the shelves and cupboards
with your gowns.

sometimes I can't help dismembering;
my head wrapped your skin
which wrapped everything.

hotel close!
she takes her suitcase and goes ...

and through the night
it rages;
DRINKDRINKDRINKDRINKDRINKDRINK
drink it away.
