Caravan Lyrics - Prose

Wake up at 6: 00, get an early start 

Mum's packed the bags 

And shouting up to my brother with stern remarks 

Saying if they wanna come they better hurl their arse 

Out of their sacks 

And get down their fast 

And we gotta leave soon and the journey's far 

They're outside trying to work the car 

And they beep twice as we heard it start 

We run outside and squash in the backseat 

Beth gets in the gap in my mam's feet 

Sat in the footwell in the passenger side 

My mum tells to get our head down if we pass police 

And ask if we have wees 

The girls run back but they're daft ' 

Cause of me 

I tell her that I have but I'm holding it 'til we pass Mc'Ds 

You know what that means 

In fact imma see if I can grab me one of them new Happy Meals toys that I got last week 

After a while "I'm like mum will you slap Steve?" 

He's jabbing on my back when I'm trying to get some damn sleep 

She says mind your language and slaps me 

Everyone laughs as we park the car and all run inside like a stampede

The places we go when we're young 

They're like footprints they fade in the sun 

To remember those days ain't enough 

We go back if only we could 

The places we go when we're young 

They're like footprints they fade in the sun 

To remember those days ain't enough 

We go back if only we could 

We arrive and our caravan looks like a space ship 

Our new neighbors say hello 

We laugh and we joke when they ask how many of us can that hold 

One day I hope 

My mum says that young girls around my age I should go over and play but no 

I say I will later 

And then I go red when Dave say I won't 

We're shouting out things to do and I'm thinking i'll go for a swim and then cruise around 

But they're off to beach so i'm gonna go too otherwise i'm gonna think that i'm losing out 

We got a dingy in the boot but Shaun says he's got a BB gun to shoot it down 

I'm saying prove it 

You'd never do it 

If you do i'd drown 

Mum I ain't sharing a room with him if I do when I get home im moving out 

She laughs and says 'Be my guest! I guess it would be useful to lose a mouth' 

But then winks and blows me a kiss just to let me know that shes foolin' round 

And it cools me down 

If God gave me wings I wouldn't use 'em now

The places we go when we're young 

They're like footprints they fade in the sun 

To remember those days ain't enough 

We go back if only we could 

The places we go when we're young 

They're like footprints they fade in the sun 

To remember those days ain't enough 

We go back if only we could 

I told her that i'd meet her in arcade around half 8 

And I can't wait 

When I seen her my heart raced 

I was halfway through killing zombies on Resident Evil 

And told her it was a hard game 

She sayin' 'it's easy' and starts playin' 

Turns out shes better than me 

So I say I let her beat me to save face 

She's cooler than the girls at my school 

I get this feeling I can't shake 

I need let her know soon that it's fine by me if we never part ways 

Shes gonna think i'm a fool 

She says I ain't half strange 

Then kisses my cheek, now i'm finished for the week 

And I start feeling a harsh pain 

I don't wanna leave yet there's nothing more that I need trust me 

They say we're too young for love 

But these butterflies must mean something 

We're at the end here 

Didn't ever expect tears 

Guess the brightest flames burn fast, told her we'd meet again next year
