Where the hell are my friends? Home alone, not again Friday, wine, and the internet The only love I seem to get And I don't, and I don't, and I don't know why I don't have anyone on a weekend night Where the hell are my friends? Where the hell are my friends? Am I starting to hate California Why am I in LA? 40 million in California No-one cares if I stay Am I starting to hate California Why am I in LA? 40 million in California But, God, I'm so in love with this place Where the hell are my friends? Out without me again Friday, wine, and the internet A life I wish I could forget And I don't, and I don't, and I don't know why I don't have anyone on a weekend night Where the hell are my friends? Do I have any friends? Am I starting to hate California? Why am I in LA? 40 million in California No-one cares if I stay Am I starting to hate California? Why am I in LA? 40 million in California? But, God, I'm so in love with this place Am I starting to hate California? 40 million in California Am I starting to hate California? Why am I in LA? 40 million in California But, God, I'm so in love with this place And I don't, and I don't, and I don't know why I don't have anyone on a weekend night Where the hell are my friends? Where the hell are my friends?

All my friends are They're on vacation But I'm just stuck here in this parking lot, well I'm looking for a mirror I'm looking at a screen These pixelated dreams Are blowing up my pocket I'll find some action, we'll cut the scene I'm on a merry-go-round I'm in a washing machine Just spinning All of my friends They don't do any favors Unless they're partying Then they got all of 'em All of my friends blow all of their paycheck They got no money Because they're dumb and reckless But I love my friends I love my friends We got each other Don't need no others All of my friends I love my friends We're a disaster Yeah, you know it's true (ooh, ooh) (Ah, ah, ah) We love being caught up in the action Eating fire and smoke It's so breezy 'til we're crashin', I'm all alone You know it's nothing new Yeah, we've been here before But let's take it to my house 'Cause I know I want more, mmm All of my friends They're crawling on the weekend Looking for something 'cause there's nothing to do, mmm, mmm And all my friends They always end up leaving For something better when it's time to cruise I love my friends I love my friends We got each other Don't need no others All of my friends I love my friends We're a disaster Yeah, you know it's true (ooh) (Ah, ah, ah) (Ah, ah, ah) (Ah, ah, ah) (We're unfazed, man, we'll make it though okay) (Remember) (Even though the days feel long) (And the nights feel just the same) (Well, I believe that hearts that drink) (From the stars stay satisfied) (To live in a safer place veiled in a peaceful paradise) All of my friends I love my friends We're a disaster Yeah, you know it's true (ooh) (Yeah) We're a disaster We're a disaster Yeah, you know it's true (ooh) We're a disaster We're a disaster, yeah, you know it's true

Since I started being impressed By the things that move me All the treasures that I missed Came back to stand around me And as I curse the wasted time I lift my head to say Thank you God you gave the strength That helped me walk away All the fear and anger Still stays within my heart And I can't recall the last time I imagined they'd depart But this is what I'm going to do When they force me to doubt I'll ask for what I know remains To help me sing them out As rays of sun shine through the clouds To heat the soaking ground So when we come to sing the shouts We'll burn the theatres down Let every disbelieving sneer That looked me in the back Turn, come towards us, and feel the first attack.

Along these broken pavements I let my mind run free The past and the present Seem just the same to me The people I have loved most Among these stones they dwell And in the cleanest language The stories they did tell They pass, they pass, they pass, they pass The streets of Edinburgh Hold half the world for me In scores, in droves, the living and the ghosts The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me Depending on your view point This place is blessed or cursed And in the years I've lived here I've seen the best and worst An air of sordid passion A look of dirty grace But not right in your face It's not that kind of place They pass, they pass, they pass, they pass The streets of Edinburgh Hold half the world for me In scores, in droves, the living and the ghosts The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me Down greasy potholed roadways I watch the traffic crawl But for the cars and busses I give no thought at all I think about the future I wonder at her health How with this human wealth She does renew herself They pass, they pass, they pass, they pass The streets of Edinburgh Hold half the world for me In scores, in droves, the living and the ghosts The streets of Edinburgh Mean most to me

Shadows fall on our lives So quickly, my friend We feel warmth and see light Then darkness descends Shadows fall without warning And we stumble around Shadows fall without pity And there's no peace to be found Shadows fall on our lives So slowly, my friend We see them coming for miles But our happiness we don't defend Shadows fall where we let them As neglect turns to regret Shadows fall, do you never get them? Ah, you haven't lived long enough yet. Shadows fall on our loved ones When we are not to blame And we can't see any reason Why they're carrying all that pain Shadows fall right on them While there's light to their left and to their right So we try to help them step over But all they see is darkest night Shadows fall without warning And we stumble around Shadows fall without pity And there's no peace to be found

I've got to follow the money Gotta go to work Gotta make a living 'Til my body hurts Gotta bite my lip Gotta wreck my health Gotta break my back For my share of wealth I've got to follow the money Gotta go to work Gotta make a living 'Til my body hurts Gotta bite my lip Gotta wreck my health Gotta break my back For my share of wealth I've gotta follow the money Gotta earn my pay I spent everything I earned yesterday Gotta find the cash 'Cause it won't find me So I can feed myself And my family When I left school I was bummin' around I'd smoke and drink and let my mind wander I'd roll out of bed about 12 o'clock I can't do that any longer 'Cause I've gotta follow the money I'm gonna go to work Gonna make a living 'Til my body hurts Gotta bite my lip Gotta wreck my health Gotta break my back For my share of wealth Now I need to toil 'cause it's good for my soul I feel clean when I'm working You can drop all the mystical celtic bull 'Cause that stuff's just jerking, always I'm not saying that I work like my dad I know I don't work like my mum But I'm made of the same stuff, and I'm six-feet tall Gimme the tools, I'll get the job done Gotta follow the money Gotta go to work Gotta make a living 'Til my body hurts Gotta bite my lip Gotta wreck my health Gotta break my back For my share of wealth I've gotta follow the money Gotta earn my pay I spent everything I earned yesterday Gotta find the cash 'Cause it won't find me So I can feed myself And my family Feed myself and my family That's why I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working I'm working now
