We took your Daddy’s car
And drove it to the sea.
We fooled around for hours
And then when we got tired and it got dark
We found a place to park
And we watched the sun set fire to the sea.

Can you feel the sadness in our love?
It’s the only kind we’re worthy of.
Can you feel the madness in our hearts
As the key turns and the engine starts?
Engine starts.

We took your Daddy’s car
And drove it into town.
We steamed into a bar
And we bought the biggest bottle of champagne
And driving through the rain,
We sang:
“God bless this car, and all who sail in her!”

Can you feel the sadness in our love?
Well, it’s the only kind we’re worthy of.
Can you feel the madness in our hearts
As the key turns and the engine starts?
Engine starts.

We took your Daddy’s car
And wrapped it round a tree.
We didn’t know what for.
We didn’t feel like driving any more.
It was so good we got bored
And we are driving from the day we are born.

Can you feel the sadness in our love?
Well, it’s the only kind we’re worthy of.
And can you feel the madness in our hearts
As the key turns and the engine starts?

Can you feel? Feel
The engine starts.
The engine,
The engine.
Engine starts.
