riff 2
And they only say they do it 'cause they know what's best for me
riff 2
Mum and Dad wanting me to sell my brains to a factory
riff 2
Well it feels so good, all these people looking out for me
Now they're getting on my back because they know best
But I know I'm better than settling for less
riff 1
They're killing me with kindness again
riff 1
Everybody says they're your friend
riff 1
They're killing me with kindness again
riff 1
Everybody says they're your friend
Friend
I've got a box full of reject letters worded carefully
Tearing out my heart with a smile and a handshake
They don't have the faith I can learn to make a milkshake
As they tear down the park and build a fast food earthquake
I couldn't stop laughing as the businessman stood
Telling us progress could only do good
You can kill with a handshake
Or a pen and dotted line
Or a kick in the balls
If it's at the right time
see below)
And I know people
riff 3
Who will stab you in the back
riff 3
And pregnant schoolgirls
riff 3
Who give their Dad a heart attack
But if something's killing me it's my lack of meaning
Everybody's smiling but I don't have any feelings
I'm not breaking down on account of executive
Stress
Chorus x3 fade out 3rd time
