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
