Mary Lyrics

Mary is my best friend
She makes me my tea
She lets me stay around her place
When there's nowhere else to be
There's nothing in her bedroom
Just a bed and a TV
And it's OK if I'm in her way
I just sit and drink my tea

I'm so lonely
I ain't done much
Lately
When you come lookin'
You'll find me
Sleeping
Soundly
Mary

Mary keeps me smilin'
Even when I'm down
She let's me stay around her place
When there's no-one else around
There's nothing in her bedroom
Just a bed and a TV
And it's OK If I'm in her way
I sit and drink my tea

I'm so lazy
I aint done much
Lately
When you come lookin'
You'll find me
Sleeping
Soundly

And when she comes around
She says I always look so down
And yeah she's always right
She makes me feel alright

i used to have a friend like this... i used to go round her house and we would just sit holding hands... sometimes in front of the TV, sometimes listening to music.... then she got a boyfriend and i couldnt go round anymore... so i spent most of my time sleeping, coz i was unemployed. listen to this song a lot.. reminds me of the good times:)

I never liked this song until I saw it live - now I fucking love it. It's so... teenage lol.

You've gotta see this song live! Is there anybody that doesn't know the words?! Incredible!

The lyrics are wrong.. Well i'm pretty sure the first line is 'Mary is my lover'?

Cover art for Mary lyrics by Subways, The

No, it's definitely Mary is my best friend.

I don't understand why there aren't more comments on this song, it's the sex.

terrific.

he obviously cares for her a lot. and appreciates her. and she must care for him.

it doesnt sound like theyre lovers though. he kind of sounds like a free loader....but theyre good friends so hes not. i think he wants more from the relationship but mary doesnt.

its a great look at relationships.

my version definately has "mary is my lover" in the 1st line. Also, the last verse is totally differnt on my version. "she lets me stay up late but i can't stay awake"...anyway..great song
