Girlfriends Friends by The Moviegoers Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1997

My girlfriend's friends laugh at jokes I don't get
My girlfriend's friends take each other to the toilet
When they come back, they're all full of secrets

My girlfriend's friends make fun of my clothing
If I don't look like a dork then I'm posing
'Cause they all dress with fear and loathing

[Chorus]
When we're alone, I feel OK
But, when they're around I become the prey
They keep swooping down to check me out
When I'm on the ground and full of doubt

My girlfriend's friends love the movies I hated
You know the sort of films that are not yet rated
They've never liked anyone she's dated

I just don't get along with the smart one
And always say something wrong to the tall one
Her gay friend says he's sure I got a small one
[Chorus]
When we're alone, I feel OK
All night on the phone I got a lot to say
But I shut right up when they come around
'Cause I know just what jealousy sounds like now

When I voice my concern she laughs
And tells me it's all in my mind
I've got so much to learn she says
And how could I be so unkind
Don't I have friends of my own

My girlfriend's friends may come between us
They treat her like she's a regular Venus
Sometimes I fear they'll cut off my arms

[Chorus]
When we're alone I trust her with my life
Put my hand on the stone and give her the knife
But that all depends on how deep it cuts
'Cause my girlfriend's friends
They all hate my guts, yeah

Ooh, my girlfriend's friends
Ooh, my girlfriend's friends
