Maxïmo Park
Roller Disco Dreams
We shared a bed but never touched
Next time we compensated in a rush
We're showing no signs of fatigue
I've Got a friend to act as a go-between
There's a distant drawl to your delivery
You deliver me
And when I'm dry you resuscitate me
You resuscitate me

This bed's too tight
Stepped upon your records in the night
Put on your favourite skirt
've got a plan that will never work
This isn't the first time but it still feels innocent
I just want to kiss you
There won't be a time when my mind strays to you
No, I'm not going to miss you

Under fireworks in Brixton
Two carousel hearts spinning
If it's a grower
Why can't we take things slower?

She dreams of the roller disco
A head full of curls on the pillow
If it's a grower
Then why can't we take things slower?

I don't know if you made it
But you accommodated me
When my mind was elsewhere
Out on deck the dawn arrived
In your grey sweater, oversized
The rooftops glimmered for our eyes...

Under fireworks in Brixton
Two carousel hearts spinning
If it's a grower
Why can't we take things slower?

She dreams of the roller disco
A head full of curls on the pillow
If it's a grower
Then why can't we take things slower?

We were straying
At the lock-in, after hours
If it's a grower
Why can't we take things slower?
