about

A whimsical country-waltz about a relationship which crossed the strict tribal/class divides of early 90’s teenage society in Blackpool.

lyrics

I remember that kiss, It was a moment of pure bliss
My stomach went tight, My head set alight, And I thought “hey what’s this?”
I remember your arms, And a few other bodyparts,
And I knew I’d make sure, That nothing of yours, Would go unexplored

And I sang...
“I don’t need no food, Just give me Gloria
And I don’t need no music, When I’m with her”

I remember your dad, Cos he had a skinhead
And he had a tattoo, That the years had turned blue, It said “don’t fuck with me”

I remember your house, In the yard was a kitchen sink
And your mum would make tea, And Benson’s for three, And tip me the wink

And I sang...
“I don’t need no food, Just give me Gloria
And I don’t need no music, When I’m with her”

I remember your kiss punch, Cos you nearly brought back my lunch
But the most painful part, Was I knew that you’d hate me for evermore

But I think of you still, In fact you’re actually in my will
I leave you my car, It’s been pretty far, And it doesn’t like hills

And I sing...
“I don’t need no food, Just give me Gloria
And I don’t need no music, When I’m with her”
