lyrics

I’ve been blown up, many times before, but I think this is gonna be the last time
You’re all grown up, don’t need me no more, I guess you need a bigger sleeping partner
Removal men are picking up the sofa, goodbye old friend I guess that it’s all over
The tenancy has run out on the love you lent me, so let me down gently
When I feel flat you give me oxygen, and then you suck the life right out of me
I got feelings, you made me feel cheap, when you put me in the lounge with all the ashtrays
I know I’m just a lilo, that much I know
I know I’m supposed to lie low, and just watch you go
But I’ll be handed down to charity and you will just forget about me
I’ll have a new home next to hand-me-downs, and you’ll have a new home in a nearby town
Well your friends snore and smell of stale beer, but at least they paid some more attention to me
I’ve been let down many times before, but I know this is gonna be the last time
