vintage whine

• 1999 çıkışlı, içinde pek çok güzel şarkı barındıran skyclad albümü. aynı zamanda albümden mükemmel melodileri olan bir parça:
  
  i'll play bacchus for the evening,
  pray, be seated, take your places
  should my manna seem displeasing,
  offend your airs and graces,
  i've a list long as your arm,
  (the connoisseur selection)
  such bitter whines -a quaff of qualms,
  awaiting your inspections
  
  the bubbles burst - this aint sham-pain
  i've watched hopes wither on the vine
  the fruits of labours toiled in vain
  i reap soul-grapes at harvest time.
  
  anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine.
  
  since it's drawn - i must sup the cellarage of sorrow
  yet fate refills my tarnished cup each time i drain the dregs
  their poison cannot kill me - new strength from it i 'll borrow
  my maudlin is a caudle that would fill a thousand kegs.
  
  anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine.
  
  here's one for the road - afore ye go
  drink deep sweet lads and lasses
  those blighted crops you gladly sow
  shall one day fill your glasses
  brood for decades - pure hate distilled
  then bottled up much longer
  revenge - a draught i'll serve you chilled,
  when time has made it stronger
  
  non-cordial - it's bile bouquet.
  laments ferment the patience schnapps
  cask full of mulled futile dismay
  my well-aged-rage - you 've turned the taps
  
  anno 1999 - a classic year for vintage whine.
  
  since it's drawn - i must sup the cellarage of sorrow
  yet fate refills my tarnished cup each time i drain the dregs
  their poison cannot kill me - new strength from it i 'll borrow
  my maudlin is a caudle that would fill a thousand kegs.

  sanırım en iyi albümü bu skyclad'in. şarkı sözü olarak en iyisi olmayabilir belki (ama yine de ilk 3'e falan girer); ancak müzik bakımından tüm albümlerinin en şahanesi.
