i could throw away my tv

'cause i got it all in spades now

all triumph and tragedy

and when as a kid with a pocket knife

like a stone from a distance thrown

it's a gamblers trick

it's a pain in the dick

must have brought it on myself somehow

hey

with friends like you

with friends like you

it's a wonder why a guy gets bent

you gotta fine fine way

of draggin' the clouds underneath the dun

and those darkened sunsuit tea bag colonge

and sympathy toasts you all alone

you pick me up like a second hand coat

spit and shine a friday night

but the things you forget hang around like a bet

you're safe till they notice the price

price!

yeah

when you're raining on the parades

down in the piss stain with a champagne

you got it

when you thought she's holding you like she means it

you hold her by the hand

take you somewhere nice and quiet

when you thought she's holding you like she means it

'cause when the going gets tough

she'll kick you in the nuts

and watch your christmas list whither and die!

die!
