The Libertines - What Became of the Likely Lads
[00:07.35] Please don't get me wrong
[00:08.35] See I forgive you with a song
[00:09.61] We'll call the Likely Lads
[00:12.86] But if it's left to you
[00:14.61] I know exactly what you'd do
[00:15.86] With all the dreams we had
[00:19.10] 'Cause blood runs thicker, oh
[00:21.11] We're thick as thieves, you know
[00:22.61] If it's important to you
[00:24.12] It's important to me
[00:26.12] I tried to make you see
[00:28.11] But you don't wanna know
[00:29.61] But you don't want to know
[00:31.36] If you pipe all summer long
[00:32.60] Then get forgiven in a song
[00:33.86] Well, that's a touch, my lad
[00:37.36] They sold them rights to all my wrongs
[00:38.61] And when they needed the new songs
[00:40.10] It's "welcome back", how sad
[00:42.86] 'Cause blood runs thicker, oh
[00:44.85] We're thick as thieves, you know
[00:46.60] If that's important to you
[00:48.11] It's important to me
[00:49.87] I tried to make you see
[00:51.11] But you don't wanna know
[00:52.61] You don't want to know
[00:55.11] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads?
[01:00.61] What became of the dreams we had?
[01:06.36] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[01:11.86] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[01:17.11] But, we'll never know
[01:23.61] Please don't get me wrong
[01:24.61] See I forgive you in a song
[01:26.10] We call the Likely Lads
[01:29.36] We all bought the ones
[01:30.35] We taught 'em all we wrote the songs
[01:32.11] That's filled with dreams we have
[01:35.12] But blood runs thicker, oh
[01:36.85] We're thick as thieves, you know
[01:38.35] If that's important to you
[01:39.86] It's important to me
[01:41.60] I tried to make you see
[01:43.11] But you don't wanna know
[01:44.36] But you don't want to know
[01:46.85] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads?
[01:52.85] What became of the dreams we had?
[01:58.12] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[02:03.60] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[02:08.36] We'll never know
[02:21.11] But blood runs thicker, oh
[02:22.36] We're thick as thieves, you know
[02:24.11] If that's important to you
[02:25.36] Yes, it's important to me
[02:27.10] I tried to make you see
[02:28.61] But you don't wanna know
[02:29.86] But you don't want to know
[02:32.11] Oh, what became of the Likely Lads?
[02:38.11] What became of the dreams we had?
[02:43.61] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[02:49.37] Oh, what became of forever, though?
[02:53.86] We'll never know
[03:47.61] The ideal girl
[03:49.10] In London from France
[03:51.12] Came over, then left me
[03:52.86] She left me entranced
[03:54.61] Now I have to get by
[03:56.36] Once again on my own
[03:58.36] Nothing but memories
[04:02.11] So I remember your eyes
[04:04.37] In their dark shade of brown
[04:06.36] While these blue eyes of mine
[04:08.36] They stay closed
[04:10.37] I kissed you goodbye on the M-109
[04:13.86] I choked as I watched the bus go, oh-oh
[04:39.11] Choking and smoking to your angelic soul
[04:42.36] Choking and smoking myself into a hole
[04:46.11] Where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
[04:50.10] And to cry out your name
