#21 Let ME RAVE!
I want to to rave, I want to rave
I want to queue in line shivering without my coat
I want to get branded as a party girl
I want to wait wait wait at the bar
I want to look in men’s faces
Just to give them screw faces
When I say NO! they just won’t do
I want to rave and be pressed against the wall
I want to squeeze along the hall
I want to feel that party rush
I want to feel that party crush
I want to dance till my feet hurt
I want to dance two step while you do one
I want to do my own thing in that ring
I want to sing along to songs I’ve never heard
Look in your face confidently so you never knew
I want to drink Rum and Black, Bacardi and Malibu
Never never caught with a can of Special Brew
I want to look in DJ’s faces
As they put records through their paces
And get hypnotised by the spinning discs
I want to lick wood
I want lick shot
Be confident no shot a comeback
Oh how I long for those days
I want a random man to take my hand
And build a spliff or two
I always wanted to dust my hand when he was through
That would be funny but that I could never do
I want to rave like back in the days
In places that weren’t safe
Step on a foot and you might get a right hook
Well that was the pill
I wanna rave when the only drug
Is laughter and dances to the happy after
Party that no one quite knew where it would be
I wanna rave I wanna rave
I never thought I would crave those days
When raving was all I would do
You went from one party, to another, to another
Jumped in cars with people you never knew
I want to step out to sunlight
I want to flinch like a vampire
As I try and workout what is this bright fire
I want to sit on an early morning bus
Meet people going to church Wearing my party dress with shoes in my hand
How I long for those days
Let me rave!
Let me rave!
Let me rave!
No raving for you darling
Sit down eat your stew
No raving here in the residential home
Now that I am 92
Let me rave
Let me rave
Let me rave
