lyrics

I should have been studying for my exams -- but you had a car!
So we spent all summer circling roundabouts like seagulls
And standing in the cold outside the bars

We sat in carparks ate Maccas
Made plans to do cool shit but never followed through
Most of our friends had already moved away so what else was there to do?

I wish we'd just kept driving around King George Sound

You were the first other queer boy I met
and I was seventeen, drunk and horny
So while Charlotte was yakking in the kitchen sink
I was touching your dick in the laundry

I hear that you've gotten married now
And you're back at church every week
I'm sorry if I hurt you way back then
I guess that I was just confused and weak

But I wish we'd just kept driving around King George Sound
Things were never the same after that.
