Goodbye Lovers and Friends Songtext
von Franz Ferdinand

Don′t play pop music, no
You know I hate pop music
Just sing the means in godless grace
And don't wear bright colors
Oh, you know I hate bright colors
I never liked you for the way you dressed anyway

Goodbye, lovers and friends
It′s so sad to leave you
When they lie and say, "This is not the end"
You can laugh as if we are still together
You can laugh about it all anyway

Hope you didn't bring flowers
Hope you didn't write a poem
Hope you remember every fight
I know I can be noxious
Or occasionally cruel
But only to the ones I love


So goodbye, lovers and friends
It′s so sad to leave you
When they lie and say this is not the end
You can laugh as if we are still together
You can laugh about it all

Don′t get inventory
And don't fake your memory
And don′t give me virtues that I never had
Don't get sychophantal
We never were sentimental
I know I took more than I ever gave

Don′t need to be forgiven
I don't know if I′m living
That's the only thing I ask
So don't play pop music, no
You know I hate pop music
Just sing the means in godless grace

Goodbye, lovers and friends
It′s so sad to leave you
When they lie and say this is not the end
You can laugh as if we are still together
But this really is the end
