We weren’t rich
we just borrowed it
at the time it seemed the thing to do
Instead of partying
we should have stayed in
then now things wouldn’t be so grim
A lack of foresight
a little oversight
I think we knew it all the time but
CHORUS
You and me we were the life of the party
we’d everything that the good times bring
You and me we were the life of the party
we had it all till we spent it all
Don’t read my mail no more
let it pile up at the door
you know they’re looking for you too
You can’t run away
someone’s got to pay
those cards won’t get you very far
You’re in the same boat as me
time to face reality
not like it used to be when
CHORUS
I’ve been down
deeper than down since you left
since you split
Nothing here but my low grade beer
I put the rest of you stuff in a skip
