Lyrics

Drive-In Saturday

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Let me put my arms around your head

It's hot let's go to bed

And don't forget to turn on the light

Don't laugh, this will be alright

Point towards another phone

I'll ring and see if your friends are home

Perhaps the strange ones in the Dome

Can lend us a book

We can read up alone

And try, try like once before

When people stared

In David Johansen's eyes and scored

Like the video films we saw

His name was always Buddy

And he'd shrug and he'd ask to stay

And she'd sigh like Kris the Wonderkid

And turn her face away

She's uncertain if she likes him

But she knows she's got to have him

It's a crash-course for the Ravers

It's a drive-in Saturday

Jung the foreman prayed at work

Neither hands nor limbs would burst

It's hard enough to keep formation

Amid this fall-out saturation

Cursing at the Astronettes

That stand in steel by his cabinets

He is crashing out with Sylvian

The Bureau Supply for Ageing Men

With snorting head he gazes to the shore

Once it raged, the sea that raged no more

Like the video films we saw

His name was always Buddy

And he'd shrug and he'd ask to stay

And she'd sigh like Kris the Wonderkid

And turn her face away

She's uncertain if she likes him

But she knows she really loves him

It's a crash course for the ravers

It's a drive-in Saturday

His name was always Buddy

And he'd shrug and he'd ask to stay

When she'd sigh like Kris the Wonderkid

And she'd turn her face away

She's uncertain if she likes him

But she knows she really loves him

It's a crash course for the ravers

It's a drive-in Saturday

Iit's a drive-in Saturday
