Did he ask you
What you wanted for your birthday?
Did he give you lots of free cds
That he gets from his company?
Did he lend you
His books, and comics, and dvds
Of british comedy that we
Never get on out tele?
Well he gave 'em to me too
Back when i was you
Emily
Why you stealing my boyfriend?
Is it because i am far away? or
Is it because you can?
Yeah, emily
Are you in love with my boyfriend?
Well, he wont love you baby
He's got no more love to spend
He tells me you are fine
But i'm better than you at lying
Did he play you his favorite records?
And tell you his favorite memories
He has of london in the nineties?
Did you get him drunk in the downstairs crying
Did he tell you his deepest, darkest secrets?
The ones he wont tell me
Well you never were so .....
And why are you not dressing like me?
Emily
Why you stealing my boyfriend?
Is it because i am far away? or
Is it because you can?
Yeah, emily
Are you in love with my boyfriend?
Well, he wont love you baby
He's got no more love to spend
He tells me you are fine
But i'm better than him at lying
Emily
Why you stealing my boyfriend?

Are you in love with my boyfriend?
