Walkin' the Stroll Songtext
von The Diamonds

They did not invite me,
The hurt has been caused,
They did not ring or call,
I think that just about says it all.
In my awful dark despair,
I really thought they would care,
A note, a card, or even some flowers,
But they were too mean to even use these powers.

They left me crying and so upset,
How could they, and yet,
"I′m alright" they probably said,
We don't care, we′ll go ahead,
They carried on, it did not matter,
They all went out for chatter,
No doubt to complain, stir and moan,
But they had left me all alone.


When days were darkest and self-esteem so low,
Calls to Samaritans said it all,
They came through with flying colours,
These friends did not, that's all that matters.
The pain they caused will not go away,
It cuts deep and strong to this day,
To put the phone down on me, screaming abuse,
To lie and try to cover up, Oh God, this is so obtuse.

I did not think I needed to explain,
But my questioning why? fell in vain,
They tried to say I was overreacting,
They were going to invite me but did not exactly!
How can people be so mean?
When I was always there so keen,
They did not deserve me as a friend,
I finally realized this in the end.

Don't try to sing if it′s for making people deaf
I know you′re reading
