This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is

But like any song for a friend
Like any song for a friend
Each meaning is his

He'll hear it when
His last chance has gone
On pirate waves
And X-stations

This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is

And like any song for a friend
Like any song for a friend
Each meaning is his

I knew him then
A carefree spiv
Now someone who
Forgot to live

So here it is
Here it is
A song for a friend

I know how you feel
I know how you feel
I know how you feel
This is a song for a friend
Who'll hear it when
The cops come round
His open heart
His trousers down

So here it is
So here it is
A song for friend

This is a song for friend
This is a song for friend
He knows who he is
