You and Yr Friends

from Songs about Friends by The Football Club

lyrics

My friend says she knows you, but not very well;
Just well enough to know what you’re like.
But she introduced me to you, and all your coke-head friends
Outside The Workers Club last night.

I watched you chew on your thumbs, hoping that somebody might stop and ask,
If you’re that guy who sings those songs.

And no, I don’t give a fuck that you don’t give a fuck,
You and your friends are exactly the same.

You’ve got a new set of friends, every time you come in,
Like a revolving door each night.
But, with every name you drop, and every pill that you pop,
I’m beginning to understand why.

You stare right past right me and say,
Isn’t that someone who knows someone who knows someone who works at Triple J?

And no, I don’t give a fuck that you don’t give a fuck,
You and your friends are exactly the same.

You think you’re William fucking Shakespeare, but you’re more like James Joyce,
And every thing you say is a freight train of amphetamine thoughts.

And no, I don’t give a fuck that you don’t give a fuck,
You and your friends are exactly the same.
