Living in the Seventies

I met you sitting with your girlfriends at the Pizza Hut
You in a blue boob-tube and matching eye makeup
With Cheryl Ladd's hair and Britt Ekland's eyes
Me in my cool velour jumper and lapels a mile wide

Lucille, all those ideals and sweet surreals
We shared some growing through the seventies

We'd ride the early bus to Bungan in the pre-dawn light
Grooving with a tranny as the surf kept time
With my single-fin McCoy and your black one-piece
Summer holidays together up at Boomerang Beach

Lucille, all those ideals and sweet surreals
We were really living in the seventies

Skyhooks, Angels, Oils, Led Zep
The Antler, The Oaks, Newport Arms for sunset,
Drambuie, Cinzano and Jungle Juice
End of school Kiama parties feeling dazed and confused

Lucille, yeah we were really living in the seventies

Adventures down south Ulladulla-way
And the time the local Koori showed us Summercloud Bay
I surfed The Bower, made a band, you left uni for a job
And got a house, some grown up plans, an older man and a dog

Lucille, all those ideals and sweet surreals
We shared some growing through the seventies
Lucille, we were really living in the seventies
