Drive She Said

Drive She Said - John Cooper Clarke

I hit the deck

Like a ton of lard

When the back of my neck

Hit something hard

A yard of lead

Or a judo chop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

Up my sleeve

She stuck me with a spike

Said you can leave

Whenever I like

Give me bread

Take me round the shops

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

There was eloquence

Style and poise

And pure malevolence

In her voice

Move it man

Chop-chop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

She wore leatherette jeans

Airwear shoes

I've never yet seen such a rare hair-do

A natty dread

With a borstal crop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

A morbid silence fills the air

Threats of violence always there

Streets ahead

Take me round the block

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

What she cried

I never heard

As doors slide

And voices blurred

The lights were red

Stuck on stop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

There was eloquence

Style and poise

And pure malevolence

In her voice

Move it man

Chop-chop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

Drive she said

I'll tell you when to stop

Drive she said

Stop

I'll tell you when to stop
