[Verse 1]
Although she meant well
She almost killed us on the drive home
Typical English summer - hailstone
Typical of me when you're drunk and alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Meanwhile, I've took enough to think I'm no one's child
I asked her if I've got my father's eyes
She laughed and sent me out for cigarettes

[Chorus]
Yes, now you've scared me half to death
To stop us drinking in the week, babe
You know you're all that I got left?
And I wasn't meant to lose ya

[Verse 2]
Although I couldn't tell whether she's steaming or just dizzy
Frost covered up our windscreen
You should've left me where you found me

[Pre-Chorus]
But like a Rolling Stone
She had her head out of the window
I don't know how she stole her mother's car
But I know exactly how she stole my heart
[Chorus]
Yes, now you've scared me half to death
To stop us drinking in the week, babe
You know you're all that I got left?
And I wasn't meant to lose ya

[Bridge]
She said she hates being a mess
"It keeps me drinking in the week, babe"
Because she loves me when I'm wrecked
And I wasn't meant to lose her

[Outro]
And although she meant well
She almost killed us on the drive home
Typical English summer - hailstone
You only love me when you're drunk
