your friends will tell you who you are

batten down the hatches

lock up grandma's ashes

anything that smashes

hide away

you-know-who is coming over

and if she isn't sober

there'll be hell to pay

yeah

we'll have hell to pay

but i will play the perfect host and hope she won't go too far

just by being in your life

your friends will tell you who you are

your friends will tell you who you are

this wine-tasting class is filled with silly arses

trying to add some style to what they swill

and i know i'm no better

fickle as a feather

we clink and then refill

but there's still time for me to change

even though as soon as i start

when you debut those brand new shoes

your friends will tell you who you are

your friends will tell you who you are

one by one they scatter ashes over water

just catch up each summer

catch each other's colds

and then goodbye

can i have another drink? i feel like another drink

no

don't wanna call it a night

i'll call it a disaster

drink to dying laughter

but i won't go with no fight

and you just smile

kiss me goodnight

because you have a good heart

when you forget why you should be loved

your friends will tell you who you are

your friends will tell you who you are

they will tell you who

your friends will tell you who you are

they'll tell you

they'll tell you who your friends will tell you who you are

they will tell you who

your friends will tell you who you are

they'll tell you

they'll tell you who your friends will tell you who you are

they will tell you who

your friends will tell you who you are

they'll tell you

your friends will

they'll tell you
