Caravans

I got a call out the blue from a far away friend
We used to be close now we only pretend
He's gathering some friends for a weekend away
And all I can think is what a waste to my day
I need to find an excuse something he can believe
Like a dead Grandma that's the third one this week
I know it sounds bad but times change fast
We used to race cars now I camp in caravans

We may have played in football teams but that was way back when
We don't need to carry on let's retire to the bench
'Cos now I like jazz oh yes I said it
I've become what I mocked and I don't even regret it
I need to get out of this we need to face the facts
We've been dining out on memories since we we've paying tax
And I know it sounds bad but times change fast
We used to race cars now I camp in caravans

I used to be so scared of what might be
Elasticated trousers turning thirty three
But now I am here and I know what I like
And it ain't a long weekend spent being polite
No it ain't you it ain't me there's just more possibilities
When you ain't got childhood history
And I know it sounds bad but times change fast
We used to race cars now I camp in caravans
