Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well it happened years ago
When you lived on Stanhope Road
We listened to your sister
When she came home from school
'Cause she was two years older
And she had boys in her room
We listened outside and heard her, alright
[Verse 2]
Well that was alright for a while
But soon I wanted more
I want to see as well as hear and so I
I hid inside her wardrobe
And she came home 'round four
And she was with some kid called David
From the garage up the road
I listened outside I heard her alright
[Chorus]
Oh I wanna take you home
I wanna give you children
You might be my girlfriend
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
When I saw you next day
I really couldn't tell
'Cause you might go and tell your mother
And so you went with Neve
Oh yeah, and Neve was coming on
And I thought I heard you laughing
When his Mum and Dad were gone
I listened outside, I heard you, alright
[Chorus]
Oh I wanna take you home
I wanna give you children
You might be my girlfriend
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Oh yeah
Well I guess, it couldn't last too long
I came home one day
And all her things were gone
I fell asleep inside
I never heard her come
Oh I opened up the wardrobe
And I had to get it on, yeah
Oh, listen, oh we were on the bed
When you came home
I heard you stop, outside the door
I know you won't
Believe it's true
I only went with her
'Cause she looks like you, my god
[Chorus]
Oh I wanna take you home
I wanna give you children
You might be my girlfriend
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
