lyrics

I Wanna Spend My Summer With A Rich Girl

I need a new lease of life to counteract the effects of British winters on mental health
I wanna meet a rich girl who's full of sunshine and light - who's got the dosh but not up herself
In her big, big garden listening to the planes and bees, this is English summer:
For once not getting caught on my knees

We'll drive down to the house that she's got by the bay of her very own estuary
Wake up breathing sea air instead of piss and decay, and the life that I normally lead
All those bars in London - they're such a soul destroying sham, I just can't wear the blinkers
And that's why I want to be your man...

I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
But if I ever get too much, wrap me up and send me home, yeah

Watching the sun as it sets we're feeling real and alive, with a promise there's something here
I've compromised for too long, and as we walk up the drive I almost feel I have lost the fear
When feelings strip you naked with simple smile-defining things, you just don't have to fake it
Or maybe that's just what money brings...

I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl

I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
But if I ever get too much, wrap me up and send me home, yeah

Of course it all has to end, because I'm not of her breed, no - I'm only a novelty
And so the vibes in our minds, they make us fail or succeed when we break for the boundary
But I'll still have the memories - A place where my mind can relax, however short it seemed
Just drop me right here beside the tracks...

I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
I wanna spend my summer with a rich girl
But if I ever get too much, throw me back into the gene pool...
