lyrics

Madeleine, you’re looking fine, oh how I wish that you were mine

And other such pathetic lines created by my lovesick mind

She doesn’t love you back you chiromaniac, so do the right thing Jack and give it up

Oh Christopher I’m missing ya, oh how I wish that I was yours

Why can’t you see a girl like me is better than those other whores

He says he thinks you’re fake, a spiteful little snake

So please for Heaven’s sake find somebody new

I love her even so / I love him even so

I’ll never let her go / I’ll never let him go

Oh what’s a lovesick teenage boy to do / Oh what’s a lovesick teenage girl to do

Well it happens every day, boy and girl, young and old alike

Some succeed while others lose

I think that love songs are twee, I’d rather sing the blues

The world can see your misery

So dry your eyes now darling, you have my deepest sympathy

It’s true what others say though it may not feel that way

But I can guarantee that there will always be plenty more fish in the sea

He’s stringing me along I see, oh how I’d like to string him up

I swear she can’t be good for me, so why don’t I just give her up?

I don’t mean to complain (So you’re not gonna thank her?)

But I’m sick of all the pain (Well noone cares you wanker)

There’s nothing left to gain but more of the same

We’re going nowhere fast, this isn’t going to last, I simply can’t be arsed

It happens every day anyway no matter what you’re like / Some succeed, others lose

Some succeed, others lose / I don’t care

I think that love songs are twee / This won’t go

I’d rather be with you / Anywhere
