about

All the put upon women in my songs turn out to be the strong ones! This has a nod to Macbeth with the spilled red wine which will never come out.

lyrics

NO OTHER CHOICE
Verse One
Broken, the glass hits the floor - Crying she can’t take any more
A pool of red wine in the rug, - It’ll never go no matter how hard she scrubs

Verse Two
Open she steps out the door - Hoping she won’t be back no more
‘She’s Leaving Home’ as the Beatles once said - A string quartet still plays in her head

Chorus
And I - I’m making tracks
And I - I’m not looking back
And I didn’t mean to wreck your life
But you left me with no other choice
No, you left me with no other choice

Verse Three
Take me for everything that I’ve ever owned - Shake me and push me around
No more this time I’m fighting back - You’re on the defence and I’m on the attack

Verse Four
Burning the bridges come down - Turning the record goes ‘round and around
‘Hold me’ the voice in her head - It’ll never go no matter how hard she scrubs
