Cheap Champagne

from More is More by Au Dré

/

about

Written by lead singer/Trumpeter Audrey Powne (The Do Yo Thangs) and produced by Keyboardist James Bowers (Sex on Toast, The Vaudeville Smash) is a dark party anthem about bad decisions made after the initial bad decision of drinking too much bad Champagne.

The duo are both trained and working jazz musicians and the production on this track is heavily influenced by modern jazz/hip hop cross overs from artists like Robert Glasper, Common, and Erykah Badu. This particular track features an extended, improvised Trumpet solo by Powne which demonstrates her command of the instrument and her unique voice as a female Trumpeter and Jazz Improviser but is also heavily influenced by 90s Neo-Soul/Jazz great Roy Hargrove.

lyrics

I said hey what’s your name again you wanna play?
I came all this way for fame down in sunny LA
Well I ain’t here to play no games of conversations that drain,
Just wanna get this thing going ain’t got no interest to fein

Don’t care about your crew bitch or the new dish bout who sue with,
Just hold back all that bull is, I just wanna get to it
Damn you’re cute take off the suit to bare the fruit of your labour
You don’t act like a player maybe you’ll save that for later

Like the front of a good boy, one of them act like he should boys,
Masquerade as a hood boy,
tonight be my saviour I won’t ask for no favours,
Just blame the cheap champagne for my bad behaviour

I don’t really care if I don’t learn your name,
I just wanna drink up all this cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya
Lay back down I know you wanna go again
Poor another glass out of the cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya

No everything’s getting misty I think the champagne just hit me
It’s more than just being tipsy I think my friends gonna miss me
I don’t usually act this risky, I’m a good girl
Like Drake’s fantasy miss before she left the city

It was the glasses of cheap champagne on the dance floor
Made me want it more than I ever did before
Don’t tell nobody this secret, take all the texts and delete me
Just one more hour till this wears off completely

I don’t really care if I don’t learn your name,
I just wanna drink up all this cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya
Lay back down I know you wanna go again
Poor another glass out of the cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya

Consider my reputation, people think I’m a failure cause
I drink so much I go back to my basics my nature
But I don’t need complication, this is just one night vacation
Give you a standing ovation if you relieve my frustration

I don’t really care if I don’t learn your name,
I just wanna drink up all this cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya
Lay back down I know you wanna go again
Poor another glass out of the cheap champagne
Put that record on that makes me go insane
Cause I just wanna do it for ya, just wanna do it for ya
