: The Ballad of Me and My Friends (Songbook Version) Lyrics

The Ballad of Me and My Friends (Songbook Version)

Everybody's got themselves a plan
Everybody thinks they'll be the man, including the girls
The musicians who lack the friends to form a band are singer-songwriters
The rest of us are DJ's or official club photographers
And tonight I'm playing another Nambucca show
So I'm going through my phonebook
Texting everyone I know
And I quite a few I don't, whose numbers found their way into my phone, ì
But they might come along anyway
You never really know
None of this is going anywhere
Pretty soon we'll all be old
And no one left alive will really care
About our glory days, when we sold our souls
