"Drive Thru to My Heart" is the fifth track on Land Shanties, released in partnership with Suzuki Australia in April 2021. It is a love song to ruining one's dinner with fast food.
Lyrics[]
You know that I love you
And you know that love is true
There's something I feel so deeply
About getting drive-thru
We order and shunt along
The best traffic jam around
For soon we'll be at the porthole
Where the burgers can be found
{Chorus}
To the valley of the golden nugget
Where the rivers run so sweet
It's either heart attack or love my dear
For my heart just skipped a beat
We're driving through the drive-thru
For that's what it's built to do
A minute past, we were hungry
Now we've rations for the crew
A belly full of treasure
From the paper chest we want
I was happy in this car before
And now it's a restaurant
{Chorus}
We'll take this meal to a quiet place
Where lovers often meet
It's safest not to drive all greasy
Please don't get sauce on the seat
As this dream is ending
I find more fries up for grabs
I feel no shame in claiming them
From the bottom of the bag
{Chorus 2x}
We've ruined dinner, yet made our day
As we eat and drink and sing
We'll remember these small times
As just the greatest thing
