Carl Barât And The Jackals - War Of The Roses Songtexte

You give me your last line said Dave
And I’ll give you my dog
Okay if you’re serious I’ll take it off your hands
And then the next day, amongst the
Debris and the cans
He says ‘we were all just wrecked last
Night you know
You can't swap a dog for blow, come on’

You’re the greatest friend to me
You’re the only friend to me
Nobody cares for me like you

So I said ‘lets talk of this no more’
Just scrape ourselves up off this floor
I saw grace last night she said she’s into you
Well, I’d go check it out if I were you
She’ll be at the monument at two’

You’re the greatest friend to me
You’re the only friend to me
Nobody cares for me like you do

Now come, you’ve gone and tricked me again
This time you really stitched me up my friend
See, I wait four hours, in the rain
Get home and you have snatched my pup
You tried a trick, you’ve come un stuck

Come on man, now what the fuck?
I think you’ll find you took what’s mine
Try to be a man of your word
You got the dog you got the line
So no, you do not get the bird

You’re the greatest friend to me
You’re the only friend to me
Nobody cares for me like you do
