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
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
We hate it when our friends
Become successful
And if they're northern
That it 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
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Oh, oh, oh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
You see it should have been me
It could have been me
Everybody knows
Everybody says so
They say
Oh you have loads of songs
So many songs
More songs than they can stand
Verse
Chorus
Middle-eight break fade
Just listen
