Shirley, |
|
it's quite exciting to be sleeping here in this new room |
|
Shirley, |
|
you're my reason to get out of bed before noon |
|
Shirley, |
|
you know when we sat out on the fire escape talking |
|
Shirley, |
|
what did you say about running before we were walking |
|
Sometimes when we are as close as this |
|
It's like we're in a dream |
|
How can you lie there and think of England |
|
When you don't even know who's in the team |
|
Shirley, |
|
your sexual politics have left me all of a muddle |
|
Shirley, |
|
we are joined in the ideological cuddle |
|
I'm celebrating my love to you |
|
With a pint of beer and a new tattoo |
|
And if you haven't noticed yet |
|
I'm more impressionable when my cement is wet |
|
Politics and pregnancy |
|
Are debated as we empty our glasses |
|
And how I love those evening classes |
|
Shirley, |
|
you really know how to make a young man angry |
|
Shirley, |
|
could we get through the night without mentioning family |
|
The people from your church agree |
|
It's not much of a career |
|
Trying the handles of parked cars |
|
Whoops,there goes another year |
|
Whoops,there goes another pint of beer |
|
Here we are in our summer years |
|
Living on ice-cream and chocolate kisses |
|
Would the leaves fall from the trees |
|
If I was your old man and you were my missus |
|
Shirley, |
|
give my greetings to the new brunette |
|
Greetings to the new brunette... |
