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're 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 for 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,

Can 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 icecream 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
