[Lyric] Good Friend (Micko & the Mellotronics)

I’m so tired of your face at my window
Making demands, facing those commands
Scratching the pane, break the glass
Cursing the splinters, forcing the catch

All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend

Now you’re in again, destroying my mind
Shattering the pieces, drinking some wine
You think you’re entitled to what you’ve not got
Fighting for justice whilst twisting the plot

All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend

Parading sensitivity like a weapon
Demanding sympathy whilst seeking attention
Seeming so righteous but fearing humiliation
Aren’t those opprеssions of your own creation?
All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to bе was a good friend

Beautiful loser, King without a kingdom
Arrogance, supremacy, mastication
Where is the cavalry now? Since you spat them all out
No time to tear the place down, now there’s extra mouths

All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend

But as you read this and you balk with scorn
Chastise and ridicule, downgrade and withdraw
‘What’s up’, would have been enough
Never an apology needed
If you’d have been prepared to open up
We both wouldn’t have conceded

All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend
All you had to be was a good friend
