Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One day, you said
Hey, Ray
Take me on a fucking holiday
Somewhere down by the sea
With some green
And good food with good booze
And two dogs with good tunes and
Just me and you, you and me
Forget the money trees
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south where the world is warm
Blood and your sweat dripping down my neck
This desire is killing me
It's killing me
[Verse 2]
One day, I said
I gave you every fucking weekend
From Friday to Sunday
I'd even take a Monday off
But then
Just when
I could feel your frustrations growing
Through the window
Watching me mow the lawn
And I was kidding myself
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south where the world is warm
Blood and your sweat dripping down my neck
This desire is killing me
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south, the world is warm
Blood and your sweat on my neck
This desire is killing me
This desire
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south, the world is warm
Blood and your sweat on my neck
This desire is killing me
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south, the world is warm
Blood and your sweat dripping down my neck
This desire is killing me
[Chorus]
Well, take me down south, the world is warm
Blood and your sweat on my neck
This desire is killing me
[Outro]
This desire
This desire
This desire
This desire
