Ex Wife - Spice Out Lyrics

A night off from syncro, don't know what to do
I'm like a fish out of water when I'm not in the pool
On the surface swimming strongly, in a league of my own
Deep down I'm hungry
I don't want to die...
I don't want to dine alone

Start of the week, sitting on my own
Sitting at home, thumbing my phone
Feeling famished, far from full
Wondering where I'm going to go
Tried the local greek and his famous spit roast
Where he gets his meat? Nobody knows

I like the Italian but his prices stick in my throat
I want to try something new
What about the Spice Out?
The deal is sealed when I see with delight
It's an All You Can Eat on a Tuesday night
(Something's going down at the curry house)

So I'm going out, for a night out
A night out at the curry house
(Something going on down the curry house)
Alone at the table, pint at my side
Been through the menu a couple of times
I look around and I think

The place is a bit dowdy, the upholstery is a bit drab
But the staff are very nice
Especially him, the waiter keeps smiling at me
He gave me some free poppadoms
He doesn't do that for everyone
He's coming over, it's time to order
What am I going to choose?

2 onion bhajis, a meat samosa
Spicy poppadoms, chutney tray
Beef Madras and pilau rice
Can I try the king prawn butterfly?
Plain nan and two dishes on the side
And I better have another pint
He said you eat a lot madam
I look at him and wink
I'm a woman with a man's appetites
(Something going down at the curry house)

He brings me the food, I tuck in with delight
Stuffed full, I've never been more satisfied
As each course came, our flirting got stronger
As each dish arrived, he refilled my lagers
It's so hot I can barely feel my lips

Forget dessert, forget the bill
Meet me round the back
(Something going down)
Down the alley, by the bins
The clean-cut waiter and a couple of friends
Want it
