Going to Brighton |
| She was an ex-marine |
| She had her own machine |
| She put my soul in dirty, and it came out clean |
| I was in toxic awe |
| I had my locked-up jaw |
| I didn’t talk much, I listened and I looked and saw |
| And I was just 19 |
| I must’ve seemed quite keen |
| She broke me open, I was no longer on either team |
| So I’m going to Brighton, honey |
| I’m going to Brighton, now |
| (Ooh, la la la) |
| (Ooh, la la la la la la) |
| I was born to ramble |
| I was born to roam |
| But some days there’s nowhere I can just stay home |
| So I trade in my shoes and my highway sign |
| And I go on rambling through my own open mind |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah |
| Chose things to discard |
| It didn’t seem so hard |
| Find freedom just down the river from my own back yard |
| So I’m going to Brighton, honey |
| I’m going to Brighton, now! |
| (Ooh, la la la) |
| (Ooh, la la la la la la) |
| No no no no no |
| She was a real bad bitch |
| She was a dominant switch |
| She deep into AC/DC, 1970's kid |
| She didn’t bug me much |
| I called her kiss my crutch |
| Maybe we spoke a different language but we kept in touch |
| Now decades down the line |
| Still get swept up sometimes |
| A little revelry whenever certain stars align |
| So I’m going to Brighton, honey |
| I’m going to Brighton, now |
| Now, now |
| (Ooh, la la la) |
| (Ooh, la la la la la) |
