Friends Like You

I got a good reason to start drinking again I guess it never really had to end It started with you when you called me your friend I guess you never paid your dues

I thought I could trust you but it was much too late Hell I'd sooner trust Mansun with Sharon Tate I guess it all boils down to fate
But with friends like you hey I'm sure to lose

With friends like you I'm sure to lose I welcome the thought of the no friend blues I'm tired & I'm beaten just a little confused With friends like you hey I'm sure to lose

You said I'd watch her for you while you're away & you took her down to Carvill on a sunny day Got her drunk on tequila had a fling in the hay Well people I had no clues

I told you all my secrets right from the start & you said "Mum's the word man they're in my heart" Well that muscles 'bout as pure as a machocca fart With friends like you hey I'm sure to lose

With friends like you I'm sure to lose I welcome the thought of the no friend blues I'm tired & I'm beaten just a little confused With friends like you hey I'm sure to lose

You left me standing on the corner of insanity You poked holes in the rubbers of my vanity & then Carrie got pregnant what a calamity & now I've got the alamony blues

You took advantage of my warm & understanding ways I was the kinda guy who cries on Groundhog's day Now I'm gonna hunt you down till I'm old & grey Cause with friends like you hey I'm sure to lose
