I said you look pretty All strung out on coke You said it's not funny But it wasn't a joke And you won't remember But I carried you home You sat in the shower While I washed off your clothes
But isn't that what friends are for Even if we used to be more? Like lovers or partners in crime And you were still mine
You said we should get out While we still could And I should have listened But I misunderstood Thought you wanted me tighter Started to chafe But it's easy to see now You just wanted me safe
And when the cops broke down our door And held us both against our floor Did we look like lovers or partners in crime? Did you look like mine? Or did we look like fools Tryna get away with it all? Thinkin' we'd be saved by a call For each other We were on the same boat
Didn't see you for ages Didn't pick up your phone Made it out of our cages Never made it back home I was late to the party Of an old family friend I was lookin' for parkin' Thought I saw you again Someone I've seen before
You couldn't look any more like a lover Or a partner in crime Or something of mine
I said you look pretty All strung out on coke You said it's not funny But it wasn't a joke
