Girlfriend

Your sisters so cool, she goes to university
Your brothers got it sussed, he takes biology
Your dads not a criminal, he's part of the economy
Your mums not invisible, she's knows about philosophy

and it's so sad
the way they have to be like that to me
and it's so sad
the way you had to leave the family

You like to have a row, it's part of your vocabulary
You talk about love like you're gonna win the lottery
You've got it all planned like daylight robbery
Your friends just say he's such a cheeky monkey

and it's so sad
the way they have to be like that to me
and it's so sad
the way you had to leave the family
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend?
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend?

You talk about the stars like a hippy on celery
I'll do the washing up and you can play monopoly
It's such an opportunity for you to start photography
I ain't going there, it's out of my geography
and it's so sad
the way they have to be like that to me
and it's so sad
the way you had to leave the family
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend?
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend?
You go on about that bloke like you wanna marry him
He's always getting drunk and I have to carry him
But what's a name, she has to take the blame
I only want a laugh but here we go again

and it's so sad
the way they have to be like that to me
and it's so sad
the way you had to leave the family

How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend?
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend
How long have you been my girlfriend, girlfriend
