Lunchtime Lover

For five weeks now we've been together.
And we've shared so many wonderful things.
So many different places; so many nights out.
I've spent so much money that I've almost lost count.

The last thing I wanna do is be that guy,
But I'm afraid I can't sustain this lifestyle.

I wanna buy you roses,
I wanna get you champagne by the glass,
But writing these love songs doesn't generate much cash.
So for now, how does this sound...

I'm gonna treat us to a meal deal, girl.
You can choose any sandwich you like.
As long as it's in the meal deal, girl.
For just £3.29,
We can get some Nik Naks,
Maybe a flapjack.
But it's one or the other, 'cause they both qualify as a snack.
You can pick your favourite liquid refreshment,
As long as it comes from the designated section.
Gonna treat you so nice this lunchtime,
With a meal deal.

I'm not suggesting that we never go out for dinner.
I'm just saying let's focus for now on lunch.
We could take a bus out to the countryside,
Try and find a seat.
But we can't venture too far,
The point is that it's cheap.

Luther Vandross said the best things in life are free,
So why don't you come round to mine this
afternoon and we'll just watch Come Dine With Me repeats.

I wanna buy you roses,
Take you to expensive galleries,
But love song writers don't get great salaries.
So until I do, I'll see you at Boots...

Gonna get you a meal deal, girl.
We're gonna have such a great lunchtime.
With our meal deal, girl.
You can choose anything your heart desires.
Such as a New York Deli or an Egg Mayonnaise,
Or an Avocado Crayfish or a little sushi tray.
And if this song becomes a hit and I make a decent wage,
Then maybe we can come back and
choose something from the premium range.
Gonna treat you so fine,
With a meal deal.
