Eighteen years of Isla. One song about her first adult year.

Verse 1

Three weeks early, couldn't waitIsla, you came in at a sprint, not a walkEighteen years and you're still the sameRacing ahead while the rest of us talk

Pre-Chorus

Never once did you slow your paceAlways first out the starting gateNow the world's got a lot to learn'Cause Isla, honey, it's your turn

Chorus

Here's to you, our girl, our prideEighteen candles, arms open wideEvery kerb you clip on the wayWe're still cheering, come what mayIsla, go and take the wheelShow the world just how you feelOur girl, our absolute prideEighteen and running wide

Verse 2

Learner plates stuck on the carKerbs beware, she's coming throughEvery argument at the tableWas just training for what she'll do

Pre-Chorus

Studying law come September nowGet paid for the fight you always foundYou've argued with us for free for yearsMight as well cash in those debating years

Chorus

Here's to you, our girl, our prideEighteen candles, arms open wideEvery kerb you clip on the wayWe're still cheering, come what mayIsla, go and take the wheelShow the world just how you feelOur girl, our absolute prideEighteen and running wide

Bridge

From the day you rushed on inThree weeks early, ready to winEvery year you've proved us rightImpatient heart, brilliant light

Final Chorus

Here's to you, our girl, our prideEighteen candles, arms open wideTake the wheel, take the floorArgue loud, we're keeping scoreIsla, this is your timeYours to make, yours to defineOur girl, our absolute prideEighteen and running wide
