The Drive

We're all Jack the lads with bad habits

Backing Jack, stacking fag packets in our jackets

Drinks come in pints and the drugs come in packets

Spilling cheap liquor on our Reebok Classics

Giving boys that we don't like lip

In a 4 seater car but we've squeezed in 6

Eric's in the backseat rolling a spliff

If we get pulled over then we're all getting nicked but

The blue lights just drove straight past us

Turn up the tunes and move the car faster

Crying inside but we'll gonna laugh cos

None of us will ever learn

Everybody is a back seat preacher

P's and Q's plays through a blown out speaker

Sipping on a bottle of the cheapest tequila

Can you take the next turn

We're all Jack the lads we're all wreckless

Couldn't care less if the olders respect us

Didn't have a motive til these girls just text us

Now we're backing shots and sparking cigarettes up

Giving boys that we don't like grief

6 people in a car that has got 4 seats

Whoever's got the aux better pass it to me

In a car full of smoke and we just seen the police but

The blue lights just drove straight past us

Turn up the tunes and move the car faster

Crying inside but we'll gonna laugh cos

None of us will ever learn

Everybody is a back seat preacher

P's and Q's plays through a blown out speaker

Sipping on a bottle of the cheapest tequila

Oh shit the police have returned

Oh well, oh well

Just another story to tell

Just another story to tell when the morning comes

Oh well, oh well

Just another story to tell

Just another story to tell in the morning

Now my mate that's driving starts moving shifty

I said slow the fuck down bruv your doing 90 in a 50

So what if they wanna pull us over

You haven't had a smoke and your stone cold sober

He said mate shut the fuck up

Are you dumb boss, look inside my glove box

This is where the fun stops

I look inside I can't believe it really I'm shocked

Tell me why the fuck you got this fella I'm lost

He said will you just stop talking for a second

I'm staring at a lot of narcotics and a weapon

Left or right boys please tell me what you reckon

The jakes are getting closer

And I don't know where I'm heading

I said bruv please talk

I don't know where to start fam

How d'you think I went and bought a car and

How d'you think I went and bought a yard look

I wanted to be top boy wanted to be hard man

I said none of us have ever been about that

So why d'you think doing with would get you extra clout

He said shut the fuck up in the back your to loud

And I don't need a lecture from you lot right now

Now my boys driving manic swinging left and right

Doing 85 but the police are out of sight

He pulls over, our hearts are heavier now he turns round says

What were you worried about

Oh well, oh well

Just another story to tell

Just another story to tell when the morning comes

Oh well, oh well

Just another story to tell

Just another story to tell in the morning
