lyrics

YOUR STUPID FRIENDS

Your stupid friends
Hang on the corner
Wasting what lives they have
Hear how they blabber
See how they posture
But they don't accomplish much
I would have treated you nice
But you acted as cold as ice
Then I saw you, drunk at the bar
With your stupid friends

What wasted days
Such empty nights
Find you bound with the same old crowd
They like to fight, they like to drink
They always lie but they never think
O how could you be so dumb
Wasting all of your time with scum?
And when you arrive at the end of your life
What will your tombstone read?

Your stupid friends
Some bought the good life
Like the smug adults that they are
Bracelets of gold and a sailboat
And a bright new shiny car
They wasted afternoons at the mall
Buying crap which means nothing at all
What do they have to show
For all their wasted time?

Your stupid friends
Carry on
Like they're still back in Junior High
Soap opera intrigue and empty gossip
Take the place of real life
I would have treated you nice
But you acted as cold as ice
And then I saw you, drunk at the bar
With your stupid friends
