Get Your Shoes On

[Verse 1]
I still can't believe that you love me girl
I've always been an average guy
Never even been that sociable
I'd rather stay home and get some sleep with you
Just eat with you
We've got kids to feed and mysteries to solve
And hands to hold and calm and colds to cure
And there's only one thing I know for sure

[Chorus]
We need one night alone
Yes, just one night alone
I know it's only one night alone
But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good

[Verse 2]
Has it really been 13 years?
Only unlucky for some
I doubt I could've been more into you
If cupid had a submachine gun
And I know and I know and I know and I know
Sometimes it's boring and tedious
Feels like the feeling is leaving us but
Hold on just a little bit longer
Stay with me and I know eventually we'll get

[Chorus]
One night alone
Yes, just one night alone
I know it's only one night alone
But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good

[Verse 3]
Don't interrupt me while i'm speaking (wait)
Daddy got drunk on the weekend (yeah)
Tried to bust a move like MJ (fresh)
Still be paying for it in 10 days
Feeling uncomfortable like a futon
I just need my fucking kid to get her shoes on (come on)
I've asked her about 5 million times
And the 5 million rhymes is the minds and the grind grind
See, tiredness has got me rambling
Half the time I don't know what the hell is happening
I spend days just distractedly wrangling
Playdough mangling, trampoline trampling
And I swear that we could sleep for a decade
Just as soon as we get this double bed made
Still I know we're only heading for a headache
Four in the morning going off like a grenade
Still late night sipping on lemonade
Me and Mr. Attenborough, nature's renegade
Next doors cat's doing a moonlit serenade
Sometimes the hardest game we've ever played
Take a breath

(One night alone, one night alone
One night alone, one night alone)

[Chorus]
We need one night alone
Yes, just one night alone
I know it's only one night alone
But it'll be fabulous, fantastical and quite good
