Drains was recorded by deXter Bentley & the JERMS over the Winter Solstice - the shortest day of the year - on Tuesday 21st December 2010 and was engineered by Chris @ The Music Complex (Tanners Hill, Deptford, South East London)

lyrics

With the sun in your eyes and a smile on your face
You're so beautiful you radiate
Never let the drains ever drag you down
You're far too strong
Too bright and clever
You turn it all around
Pick it up off the floor
Now I love you so much more

Everything is in place whenever you are around me
As I contemplate just how you astound me
You never let the drones ever wind you up
You're far too clued
Too shrewd and savvy
You make your own luck
Open up all the doors
Now I love you so much more
So much more

Never let the drains ever drag you down
You're far too strong
Too bright and clever
You turn it all around
Pick it up off the floor
Now I love you so much more
So much more
More
More
So much more
