Breakfast in the Afternoon

Aint got no rhythm

Ain’t got no rhyme

I think I’m ugly

She thinks I’m fine

I’ve never had a girlfriend but that’s no crime

Learning how to do it for the very first time.

I’m like a thrift shop record

That’s never been played

My landlord thinks I’m crazy

His daughter thinks I’m great

She makes me a vodka with a little bit of lime

Learning how to do it for the very first time

[Chorus]

Hey I gotta brand new tune

Playing air guitar with a wooden spoon

Rough rhythm of a willing ride

And all the bed sheets strewn

Breakfast in the afternoon

Our local pub is closing

After all those drive-in raids

I say where the hell we going?

She says down to Taylor’s Glade

Our park-up windows all streaked with grime

Learning how to do it

For the very first time

Hey I gotta brand new tune

Playing air guitar with a wooden spoon

Rough rhythm of a willing ride

And all the bed sheets strewn

Breakfast in the afternoon

A bang on the window

We ain’t alone like I thought

A face with a cap on

And a badge pinned to his shirt

I can’t hear him talking, so I try to mime

Getting booked by a trooper

For the very first time

Hey I gotta brand new tune

Playing air guitar with a wooden spoon

Rough rhythm of a willing ride

And all the bed sheets strewn

Breakfast in the afternoon

Hey I gotta brand new tune

Playing air guitar with a wooden spoon

Rough rhythm of a willing ride

And all the bed sheets strewn

Breakfast in the afternoon

Hey I gotta brand new tune

Playing air guitar with a wooden spoon

Rough rhythm of a willing ride

And all the bed sheets strewn

Breakfast in the afternoon

Breakfast in the afternoon

Breakfast in the afternoon

Oh yeah
