Nice Little Convertible (In Galaxy Black) – Written Between February and June 1995 (Aged 20)

Nice Little Convertible (In Galaxy Black)

you drive a nice little convertible
you have been telling everyone
about your nice little convertible –
in galaxy black
you have been telling people
it is the only thing you have got
i have been hearing about your roof down fun
you have been taking people out
because it is a time to keep cool
and you know you can do it
in your nice little convertible
when you are really expressive
you never really stop
you just talk about losing your top
and going real fast
people smile and look on
not so sure you are talking about your car
nice little convertible, lots of fun
you will go far in galaxy black
right up to the stars
you are a special girl in your own way
you know that it is hard, but it is a goal
and things are going to be okay
you have been buying petrol
to make you go, you have no money in the bank
but you have got your convertible
and plenty of juice in the tank
you will be alright, be quick, do not fight
do not look back in your nice little convertible
in galaxy black




James Garratt – February to June 1995
