I Have A Friend Songtext
von The Libertines

It′s more like sadness
Composed by a fragmented soul
All the words in a whirl
I just don't know where it goes
You holding the line
Or scuttling away
Is life a blockbuster film
Or a half rehearsed play
And the pigs on the spit
And the wolf′s at the door
Do the bad need a good
Like the rich need the poor
How far can it get
Before the death Pixels meme?
An imperial threat
Or is it all just a dream


It's hard to theorise
When you are being brutalised
And the tears fall like bombs
Without warning

No, you don't know you′re born
Free speech and free porn
And the next thing you know
You′re being led out at dawn
Of our children of men
T-t-t-time again
The d-devil will come
Without warning
Hey, it's out the window
While you watching the news
A ha ha, Hymer
Comes into view
And now your shadow′s a skull
And the skull is a whole
The hole is empty of course
Like all human discourse


It's hard to theorise
When you are being brutalised
And the tears, like the bombs
They fall without warning
Follow the tracks in the mud
Down to where the sea is black with blood
And tears, like the bombs
They fall without warning

How far can it get
Before the death Pixels meme?
Imperial threat
Or is it all just a dream?
It′s more like sadness
Composed by a fragmented soul
I just don't know where it goes

So hard to theorise
When you are being brutalised
And the tears fall like bombs
Without warning
Follow the tracks in the mud
Down to where the sea is black with blood
And the tears fall like bombs
Without warning
And tears, like the bombs
They fall without warning
