Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Where is the bread? Where is the butter?
Can't you use your beautiful head for me?
How quickly we both can't remember
How long we've been staring out to sea
[Chorus]
In times of heartache, get drunk
In times of tears, get sunk
In times of shame, forget
In times of weather, get wet
I'll think of you if you think of me
In times of difficulty
[Verse 2]
When will you call me in for supper?
I've been so high up in the trees
When can we vanish for the winter?
When will you kiss me in my sleep?
[Chorus]
In times of heartache, get drunk
In times of tears, get sunk
In times of shame, forget
In times of weather, get wet
In times of loneliness, stay home
People make you feel even more alone
When you look at the stars, do you see anything?
Is it anything like what you thought it would be?
I'll think of you if you think of me
The way the sky thinks of the sea
In times of difficulty
[Bridge]
Get drunk
Get sunk
Forget
Get wet
[Verse 3]
Feels like we missed another summer
If we're not dying, then what are we?
Already dead or under the weather
How can we tell in times like these?
[Chorus]
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
[Outro]
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
In times of difficulty
