I remember nights out when we were youngThey weren't very good they were rubbishRunning round Highroyds isn't funJust teenagers testing their courage Standing outside nightclubs in the snowUs not very cool or impressiveThey let in all the girls from the year belowNo need for ID's with those dresses Got news from afarFrom a girl who knows who we areShe's still got my dinner moneyShe can keep it Never had a fight that we haven't lostNot very tough or athleticOnce I had a boxing champ in a headlockWhen he gets out I'll regret it Got keys to a carPicked up a girl from Boston SpaFor fast food and cinemaIt's not worth it Got word from down southWell he had heard about it word of mouthHaven't much stayed in touchSince Highroyds Let it go and let it goAnd if I'm wrong then I won't knowCos no one's gonna tell me but a friendHe has gone and Ian's goneAnd everybody went alongAnd nobody was left here in the end Got news from Uncle HughThrough a second cousin once removedToo late there's a housing estateIt's called Highroyds Got a text from an exShe wants to know when we're in London next"And will you write a song about me?"I don't think so

How could we not notice it before?Well you may as well have pinned it to my doorWell lately I'm oh so slowly coming roundTo the fact that this friend is a friend no more And if you think you're right then you are wrongNo one ever really knew what's going onNow we're all so slowly coming roundAnd this friend of a friend was no friend all along The penny drops from the top of Tour EiffelThrough the boulevards to Taj MahalA penny more through the floor of Sacre CoeurFrom the Spanish main to Yorkshire moors

None of the buildings even look the same,And underneath them all the shops have changed.I don't pretend they're in a lot more pain,Stocking much too young for the professionals to stay in. I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you. I'm returning to the north againEverybody has to talk on the train.And if you've got nothing thats clever to say,Nobody's listening to you anyway. 'Cos I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.But it wouldn't be very good. La la la, la la la la la la la la la, etc. What you want here?It doesn't matter!I don't think that it can be done without you.What you doing?It doesn't matter!But everything that's done is all about you We convince each other nothing has changedNobody else will ever write the sameThe adaptation for the stage is not playingFor your protection all the names have been changed I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.But it wouldn't be very good.

In nights of old, they lie in the roads.Off with their heads, and always lead opinion polls. Going in and out of, another state of, try not to be obvious, with the ringside seats. In uniforms, of green and gold,Like crocodiles they march in files of unison. Going in and out of, another state of, try not to be obvious, with the ringside seats.Going in and out of, another state of, try not to be obvious, you get the first one free. I like it too much, I like it too much.I like it too much, I like it too much. Coz you are, descended from animals, And you are constructed of chemicals. The one thing you can't have, you like too much.You look but you cannot touch. Like dominoes, one only goes. They all will fall, sail the ship, rock the boat. Going in and out of, another state of, try not to be obvious, with the ringside seats.Going in and out of, another state of, try not to be obvious, you get the first one free. I like it too much I like it too much.I like you it much I like it too much. Coz you are, descended from animals, And you are constructed of chemicals. The one thing you cant have, you like too much.You look but you cannot touch. I like it all too much. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... Coz you are, descended from animals, And you are constructed of chemicals. The one thing you cant have, you like too much.You look but you cannot touch. I like it all too much.
