Get Your Shoes On

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I still can't believe that you love me girl I've always been an average guy Never even been that sociable I'd rather stay home and get some sleep with you Just eat with you We've got kids to feed and mysteries to solve And hands to hold and calm and colds to cure And there's only one thing I know for sure [Chorus] We need one night alone Yes, just one night alone I know it's only one night alone But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good [Verse 2] Has it really been 13 years? Only unlucky for some I doubt I could've been more into you If cupid had a submachine gun And I know and I know and I know and I know Sometimes it's boring and tedious Feels like the feeling is leaving us but Hold on just a little bit longer Stay with me and I know eventually we'll get [Chorus] One night alone Yes, just one night alone I know it's only one night alone But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good [Verse 3] Don't interrupt me while i'm speaking (wait) Daddy got drunk on the weekend (yeah) Tried to bust a move like MJ (fresh) Still be paying for it in 10 days Feeling uncomfortable like a futon I just need my fucking kid to get her shoes on (come on) I've asked her about 5 million times And the 5 million rhymes is the minds and the grind grind See, tiredness has got me rambling Half the time I don't know what the hell is happening I spend days just distractedly wrangling Playdough mangling, trampoline trampling And I swear that we could sleep for a decade Just as soon as we get this double bed made Still I know we're only heading for a headache Four in the morning going off like a grenade Still late night sipping on lemonade Me and Mr. Attenborough, nature's renegade Next doors cat's doing a moonlit serenade Sometimes the hardest game we've ever played Take a breath (One night alone, one night alone One night alone, one night alone) [Chorus] We need one night alone Yes, just one night alone I know it's only one night alone But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good
