Drive, Drive, Drive
(Twenty two and still in love with you)

Sun Serious
Drive, Drive, Drive
I've got your photos on my wall, I've got your letters in my drawer
I'll be dialling your number, I wonder what for?
Haven't got the heart to make a new start
and so I'm 22 and still in love with you
I want to drive, drive, drive you right out of my mind
into a wood where I can leave you behind
I want to dance, dance, dance, lose you in the dark
with a bangle in your ear, your face in a beer at the bar
Well you come home drunk and get me drunk too
you tell me how the world has got it in for you
Well I haven't got the nerve to give you what you deserve
so I'm 22 and still in love with you
Oh, need somebody new who needs me too
Oh, need somebody new who needs me too
Oh, not like you
Well I never liked your politics, never read your books
Our only common interests were your looks
and I never the pride to stop you coming inside
so I'm 22 and still in love with you
Sun Serious
The sun is high, the sea is warm
I look like death, I'm short of breath
A day like this could save my skin
A day like this could make me pretty
I'm not joking, No! I'm sun serious
Rub the lotion down my back, I want to smell like coconut
Kick the sand up in my face but keep your shadow off my face
There's a blanket there for you, shut up, strip off and lie by me
Don't bother me, I'm busy, at the beach I'm burning
Cherry red instead of berry brown, I want to be pretty
I've got the sand between my toes, I've got titanium on my nose
I'm getting brown and strong, I won't be seven stone of bone for long
I love the surfer boys, seventeen but built like Action toys
Haven't a hair that you can see, but they've got muscles you can see
They laugh at my when I try to swim, laugh at almost anything I do
I want to be like them, they're real men
