Sunday Driver
(Hampshire/Kent)
I know I've had enough of getting up early
And I know that you wouldn't disagree.
Sometimes I know we are a little bit lazy
And sometimes I feel it's a necessity.
But it's making me feel that I'm giving you something you want
Come on down here if you want it to be ok
Come up and hear if there is something you can say
You believe that you understand everything that I have said
But I don't think you realise that what you heard is not what I meant.
Too much indifference will leave us standing
Still I don't expect you to know how it feels.
Do you want to be famous? So do we! Do you like driving? So do we! Do you like Sundays? So do we!
Rich started the song as a reaction to not being famous after being inspired by 'Ive Got a Feeling' by the Beatles and 'Someday Man' by the Monkees. He came up with the chorus later with the help of Marco.
Ben & Rich got to work finishing off the lyrics and were particularly pleased with the double meaning in the 'Too much indifference....' line.
Rejected lyrics from these sessions include:
'I know a smile is a necessity'
'Come on and pick me up and let me know the way'
'But it's gonna take time and...'
'And I know that you would be the first to agree with me'
'Sometimes I know it isn't gonna be easy'
'And I know that there is something you can say'
'It seems that your indifference has left us standing still'
Fortunately, quality control was able to weed out these dreadful lyrics, replacing them with the fantastic ones you see opposite!
And I don't want to be known as just a Sunday driver,
I just wanna be seen on your TV screen
And I don't wanna be known as just a Sunday driver
Standing in for someone else who should be me
