Roller Disco Dreams Songtext

von Maximo Park

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 draw to your delivery
You delivered me
And when I'm dry you resuscitate me
You resuscitate me

This bed's too tight
I stepped upon your records in the night
Put on your favourite skirt
I'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

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

She brings up the roller disco
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've made it but you accommodated me
When my mind was elsewhere
Out on deck the dawn arrived
Your grey sweater oversized
The rooftops glimmered before our eyes

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

She brings up the roller disco
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?
