Drive Thru
Kid British Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Went to the drive thru
Knew I'd see you
Collected my food
Checked in the rear view
And you were playing
On the back of my mind
So I ate what I bought
Went thru one more time

And I wonder if she knows
When she passes me that meal
Or do my eyes show
How much I really feel
And I wonder if she knows
When she passes me that meal
Or do my eyes show
How much I really feel

I knew that you would be there
You're always there at that time
And when you pass me my fries
I rise in my Calvin Kleins
I thought that you would be there
You're always there at that that time
And if you're not then that's fine
I'll go inside get in line

Love you to take time out
From your heavy schedule
Take a break from the gruelling work
Book sick if possible
Love you to take time out
From your heavy schedule
Take a break from the gruelling work
Book sick if possible

I'd love for you to take your time out
Love for you to take your take your
Love for you to take your time out
Love for you to take your take your time

And I love Donuts
And I love Apple pies
But not that much
To go back so many times
And I love Donuts
And I love Apple pies




But not that much
To go back so many times

Overall Meaning

In Kid British's song Drive Thru, the singer visits a fast-food drive-thru multiple times just to see the person working at the window. The first time he goes through, he sees her and can't stop thinking about her. He goes through again and wonders if she knows how he feels. The chorus repeats this sentiment about wondering if she understands his attraction. The second verse also touches on seeing her while getting his food and feeling a sense of elation. The bridge repeats the chorus with some slight changes, specifically asking her to take some time off and spend it with him. The final lines mention the singer's love for fast food but that it's not enough to justify continually going through the drive-thru.


The lyrics are relatively simple, with the singer expressing his interest in the woman working at the drive-thru. The song's simplicity and repetitive chorus give it a catchy quality that makes it easy to listen to, even if it's not necessarily complex. The melody is upbeat and fun, which makes the song feel lighter than it might otherwise. It's a song that's perfect for late-night drives or background music at a party.
