Go tell a friend

Now I can see every one of your flaws

All of the things I could not see before

You come in stinking and slurring your words

You don’t stop talking and ironing shirts

Where did you put your bottle this time?

Better be somewhere I won’t find

‘Cause you know it’s going down the sink

Even your sister says you shouldn’t drink

Used to depend on the person I see

Well look at you now, you can’t even speak

And then you tell me to go fix my life?

Well, what about yours, you can’t even write?

And you bitch about how you don’t get work done

It’s not my fault, it’s because you’re drunk

And you’re whining to me about how hard it is

Being a single mother and raising two kids

Well shut the fuck up, I don’t care anymore

And I can’t turn back to when it was before

And I know you’ve had your fair share of abuse

But that’s in the past so you’ve got no excuse

Go tell a friend

Acting like a person I hate

«Just go to bed now» is all I say

Don’t talk to me when you are this way

It just makes me sick and I’ll lose it one day

And I’ll do something that I swear that I will regret

So stop it okay, and never forget

The way that it was when we were all fine

Just sort out your head, and I’ll fix mine

It’s nobody’s fault, so don’t try and blame

Anyone else for all your pain

No-one can help you except for yourself

So put down the glass and get some fucking help

Or a boyfriend, I don’t know, whatever you need

How 'bout a better son or some friends maybe?

Once again I’m sorry for my part in this

At least you learnt a lesson though: children are shit

They take your money, they kill you dreams

They cry when you don’t buy them ice creams

They age you and they make you shout

But sober thoughts will help you out
