Lyrics

We hate it when our friends become successful

We hate it when our friends become successful

Oh, look at those clothes

Now look at that face, it`s so old

And such a video !

Well, it`s really laughable

Ha, ha, ha ...

We hate it when our friends become successful

And if they`re Northern, that makes it even worse

And if we can destroy them

You bet your life we will

Destroy them

If we can hurt them

Well, we may as well ...

It`s really laughable

Ha, ha, ha ...

You see, it should`ve been me

It could`ve been me

Everybody knows

Everybody says so

They say :

"Ah, you have loads of songs

So many songs

More songs than they`d stand

Verse

Chorus

Middle eight

Break, fade

Just listen ..."
