[Verse] Steam rising like a ghost in the air The tub is hot but I don't care Bathtub gin it's a devil's dare Swirling in the water Pulling me somewhere [Chorus] Oh Bathtub gin it bathes you in sin You start to lose but think you'll win The bubbles laugh as they pull you in Oh Bathtub gin baths you in sin [Verse 2] Lips taste bitter Sweet as crime Clock keeps ticking Losing time The saxophone wails Love's a pantomime I’m sinking deeper Drunk on the rhyme [Prechorus] Spinning fast The room's a blur Voices hum But I'm not sure [Chorus] Oh Bathtub gin it bathes you in sin You start to lose but think you'll win The bubbles laugh as they pull you in Oh Bathtub gin baths you in sin [Bridge] A clarinet cries like a broken vow The brass explodes The time is now The mirror cracks The truth somehow Is soaking in gin I can't allow
