Lyrics Declan McKenna

Declan McKenna

Listen to Your Friends

Don't call me out, 'cause I heard you scream

I don't wanna get out of bed for this again

I won't waste your time, I heard it in a dream

I don't believe you trusted me

Trusted me

I bet you only listen to your friends

I'm talking like I can pretend

But I feel better when

You tell me that I always have to go

You tell me what I want to know

And I'll feel better for it

But I know sometimes it's hard for me to say

I love you every other day

You pour my heart away

And sometimes I'm scared of what they've done

So I look how far we've come

You think you don't have to put up a fight, but you might as well

So I tell you everything you won't admit

Tell me you don't care one bit

And I'll feel better for it

Look online

Do ten minutes of research and in turn find

The problem is poor kids who want holidays in term time

The problem is poor kids who can't afford the train fare

So we up the train fare and charge them for not paying the train fare

The problem is welfare

And the problem is free healthcare

'Cause it's unfair and if it's gone it's welfare

The problem is drugs

The problem is free love and free hugs

So stay in fear

Do some drugs and stay here

Well I said go on then...

But God bless the weatherman

Who has gone out of business since the psychoactive substance ban

The gateway has sent him back

From bulk-buying NOS to selling crack

The problem rose and a rich man suggested it

Over his lunchtime snack

So we ban the produce and its a bit of a nuisance really

Don't waste your time, I heard you scream

I don't wanna get out of bed today, okay?

I won't waste your time, I heard it in a dream

I don't believe you trusted me

Trusted me

Please trust in me

Please trust in me
