Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
And I'm fine, getting by, I only think about you once in a while
That was then, not today, you never listened to a word I'd say
I kept faith, gave you trust, I gave you friendship and it's never enough
Give me time, give me space, give me the line that we had when we knew our place
So try to make it easy on yourself, it'll work okay
Just last week as I was cleaning shit from off my shelf
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you, someone like me
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you used to be
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
You get wise, you get old, you stop believing in opinions you're sold
Heaven knows, your divine, you've got your fingers in the public mind
And then shock, open wire, you've got your dick a little close to the fire
You're an asshole, again, and now you're back to where your learning
That the problem isn't them
So try to make it easy on yourself, it'll work okay
But just last week as I was getting close to someone else
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you, someone like me
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you used to be
Used to be
Used to be
Used to be
Used to be
Used to be
Ra-raa-ra-raa
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
Do-do do-do do-do do-do do do
So stop, and make it easy on yourself, it'll work okay
'Cos no-one hates a fuck up 'less they're all fucked up themselves
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you, someone like me
I found a photograph of someone I knew
Someone like you used to be
Used to be
Used to be
Used to be
