Here come those tired old tits again
You're getting looks but losing friends
Even as the party ends
You're still here
Haven't you noticed my distress
I wish you'd worn another dress
Must i witness your excess, again
Some other day
Some other time
Would've been fine
I'm never here most of the time
Good times come and go
And i should know
Good times come and go, i know
I have to say in your defence
He broke your ring of confidence
And though it's spiced up your romance
Big deal!
I wish the ground would swallow me
Or maybe you in sympathy
I look around the room to see
Who has seen
Some other day
Some other time
Would've been fine
I'm never here most of the time
Good times come and go
And i should know
Good times come and go, i know
Good times come and go
Please come 'round now
Good times come and go, i know
I have to say in your defence
He stole your ring and spent the rent
He kept you in the strictest sense
Un-free
Good times
Good times
Good times come and go
Please come round (home?) now
Good times come and go, i know
I know, i know
Someone please remind her
She's got acute angina
And baby i should know
Good times
Good times...
