[Intro] [Verse 1] Along by the canal You can see the remnants of last night’s reverie As left by the local tenants [Pre-Chorus] But these aren’t the gifts they give free in shopping malls This is real life that’s sprayed across the tunnel walls [Chorus] You know who your friends are You know who your friends are They’re the ones who want to see you go far You know who your friends are [Verse 2] The last time you tried to leave here for a working holiday You said your mother needed you two thousand miles away [Pre-Chorus] But no sooner on the tarmac you were met to be told    We’ve been waiting for you                             You just can’t leave the fold [Chorus] You know who your friends are You know who your friends are They’re the ones who want to see you go far You know who your friends are [Bridge] They’ll never let you go_______ They’ll never let you know who your friends are Know who your friends are [Instrumental] [Verse 3] They say that loyalty is just for those who’ve earned it Is that why they stole the sofa from your parking space and burned it You were hoping you could leave here with some teeth still in your head But your friends on curtain row would rather see you dead [Chorus] You know who your friends are You know who your friends are They’re the ones who want to see you go far You know who your friends are [Outro] They’ll never let you go_______ They’ll never let you know who your friends are Know who your friends are They’re the ones who want to see you go far You know who your friends are
