Orange Juice - Lean Period Lyrics

I want to testify, my love is bona-fide
This is the real thing, not just a casual fling
But please don't expect consistency from me
I've been maimed and I've been chained before you see

But right now I'm
Going through a lean period
A decidedly mean period

Let's talk things over in the Old Rover
Let's drown our sorrows like there's no more tomorrows
All those words that I have wasted in haste
Have left such a bitter aftertaste

The reason being I'm
Going through a lean period
A decidedly mean period

This joke I've made at my own expense
Has long since worn thin
And yet by way of recompense
You respond with a wink and a knowing grin

Going through a lean period
A decidedly mean period
