I love this song by Pulp. It is from the Great Expectations soundtrack. Oh and I love the movie too. Beautiful. Read the following lyrics...devastatingly gorgeous. And if you haven't heard the song, try it out.


Like A Friend

Written By Pulp.

Don't bother saying sorry.

Why don't you come in?

Smoke all my cigarettes - again.

Everytime I get no further.

How long has it been?

Come on in now.

Wipe your feet on my dreams.


You take up my time

Like some cheap magazine.

When I could have been learning something.

Well, you know what I mean.


I've done all this before

And I will do it again.

C'mon and kill me baby

Whilst you smile like a friend.

And I'll come running.

Just to do it again.


I can't believe it.

That this is still going on.

Just how stupid can one person be?

Just how stupid and wrong.


You are the last drink I never should have drunk.

You are the body hidden in the trunk.

You are the habit I can't seem to kick.

You are the secrets on the front page every week.

You are the car I never should have bought.

You are the train I never should have caught.

You are the cut that makes me hide my face.

You are the party that makes me feel my age.


Like a car crash I can see but I just can't avoid.

Like a plane I've been told I never should board.

Like a film that's so bad but

I've just got to stay 'til the end.

Let me tell you -

it's lucky for you that we're friends.
