Far Behind Lyrics

With friends like you, who needs enemies?
you ain't right, you ain't never gonna be
You're out of the car, I'm afraid you've been declined
You shake my hand, while you're pissing on my leg
I'm cutting you loose, I don't need this misery
your soul is toxic, and you ain't no friend of mine...

You talk real trash, when I'm not around
to build yourself up, you gotta tear me down
You'll have to excuse me, I've got better things to do
You smile through your teeth, you talk out you're neck
every chance you get, you're going to stab my back
Your time's run out, I got nothing left for you

I'm leaving you far behind
I'm leaving your far behind
Stop wasting all of my time
I'm leaving you far behind

So I'm pulling out the weeds, I'm taking stock
you can talk the talk, but can't walk the walk
Your narcissistic ways have gotten the best of you

So I'm leaving you to sink in all your glory
for you and me, it's the end of the story
Get out of my way, I've got better things to do

I'm leaving you far behind
I'm leaving your far behind
Stop wasting all of my time
I'm leaving you far behind

I'm leaving you far behind
I'm leaving your far behind
Stop wasting all of my time
I'm leaving you far behind

I'm leaving you far behind
I'm leaving your far behind
Stop wasting all of my time
I'm leaving you far behind

With friends like you, who needs enemies?
you aint right, you aint never gonna be
Your soul is toxic, and you aint no friend of mine...

Thanks for correcting the abysmally wrong lyrics. One of the best put-down songs ever.

When I saw Social D back in July, Mike prefaced "Far Behind" by saying "This is a song about being friends with an asshole," so I think Nicholas is pretty close there :)

were you high or something while writing the lyrics?

i'm not even going to comment on the abysmal attempt at lyrics that was submitted, but the only line i have to correct for flesh99 is "you're out of the car" should be "you're another call". awesome song. i dedicate it to a certain "friend" of mine, or so i thought.

This is definitely not what's on the Greatest Hits. I don't remember what the live mp3 version that was floating around was like.

How about some correct lyrics?

With friends like you, who needs enemies? You ain't right, you ain't never gonna be You're out of the car, I'm afraid you've been declined. You shake my hand, while you're pissing on my leg I'm cutting you loose, I don't need this misery Your soul is toxic, you ain't no friend of mine. NO!!!

You talk real trash, when I'm not around To build yourself up, you gotta tear me down. You'll have to excuse me, I got better things to do You smile through your teeth, you talk out you're neck Every chance you get, you're going to stab my back Your time's run out, I've got nothing left for you.

[Chorus:] I'm leaving you far behind I'm leaving you far behind Stop wasting all, all my time I'm leaving you far behind, Yeah!!!

So I'm pulling out the weeds, I'm taking stock You can talk the talk, but can't walk the walk Your narcissistic ways have gotten the best of you So I'm leaving you to sink in all your glory For you and me it's the end of the story Get out of my way, I've got better things to do.

[Chorus x3]

With friends like you, who needs enemies? You ain't right, you ain't never going to be Your soul is toxic, you ain't no friend of mine.

Yeah thats the right one. I thinkhe may be pissed at one of te descendants in this song. seeing how the lead guitar riff is VERY similar to the lead in Get The Time. Hard to tell though.

Cover art for Far Behind lyrics by Social Distortion

This song seems like it's about a guy just trying to live his life, made friends with a guy, and the guy turned out to be a total idiot, full of himself and was always putting others down.

Mike Ness said that this song is about someone pretending to be your friend, and when they turn their back, they "sing a different tune". [By the way, next time you wanna post lyrics, make sure they're right....]
