Friend of Mine Lyrics

I don't want us to have a fight
But in the background
I can hear you chatting shite
I hear it every night
And you think you're being really cool
And you've been doing it
Since we were both at school
Now who looks like a fool

You're no friend of mine, girl
And I've know it for a while, girl
You're just a waste of time, girl
Why don't you have another line, girl?

Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck

What happened to the good old days?
I was kinda hoping this was all a stupid phase
Who are you anyway?
I know you've heard this all before
I know some people who are calling you a whore
Don't know you anymore

You're no friend of mine, girl
And I've know it for a while, girl
You're just a waste of time, girl
Why don't you have another line, girl?

Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck

Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck

God, do I know what she means... I thought this was called "Friend or Foe"?

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

seems to be about a friend who does coke.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

Definitely about a friend who has given up her whole life for coke and is now a total loser. I totally LOVE this song. It may be my favorite. The tune and lyrics are just so simpy elegant and it's relatable.

whatwhatwhat? i dont get it? where's the reference to the cocaine? 0_0 bare confused. i thought it was about bitching behind her back.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

"Why don't you have another line, girl?" There's a reference.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

i thought that just meant "dont you have another way of getting attention?" like when someone overuses a pickup line or whatever. and at the start she says "chattin shite" as in, bithcing about me, spreading rumours and that.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

i thought it was a reference to cocaine as well. like, mocking her for being a drug addict on top of all this other shit. i don't think it really had anything to do with their relationship, which is why it's only one line in the song.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

"soon you'll be a nervous wreck" drugs drugs drugs and also just about her being a bit of a slag aswel.

Cover art for Friend of Mine lyrics by Lily Allen

no, i think its about her friend sleeping with her boyfriend...hence the referance to the whore. saw it on donny dyer's orange playlists, one of his favourite songs. +D
