Old Friends - Ylvis

I saw you at the railway station

There had been a cancellation

You were smoking cigarettes alone

I walked up and said 'Hello

I lost my wife two days ago.'

You shook my hand and said Francis was your name

And you had a hat

And I had a hat

Mmm, we both had hats

And my wife was dead

And your wife was dead

'Shit happens,' Francis said

Francis said, 'It's five o’clock

How about we find a rock

And throw it at some cars from the bridge?'

I laughed and said, 'That sounds like fun."

We walked into the setting sun

And Francis said, 'I'm aiming at the kids.'

And he threw a rock

So I threw a rock

We both put some gravel in a sock

And he threw the sock

I said we should stop

He smiled at me then threw a rock in a sock

We snuck down to the local farm

And there we opened up the barn

To set the horses free and watch them run

The moon was extra bright that night

The horses in the pale moonlight

'Watch this' Francis said

And pulled his gun

He shot a horse

So I shot a horse

Francis choked a chicken with his hands

But watching them die

We started to cry

'I'm bored,' Francis said.

'Let's steal a car.'

Oh Margaret, oh Margaret, don’t you worry bout me now

I’m doing just fine on my own

There are other things to life than your soft skin against mine

And Francis is helping me move on

I’m moving on

Life’s a bitch, a wise man said

No matter what you end up dead

And all that you can wish for is a friend

So pour another glass of wine

With Francis' shoulder touching mine

I’ll stay right here until the bitter end

And you have a hat

And I have a hat

Mmm, we both have hats

And your wife is dead

And my wife is dead

'Here's to life,' Francis said

'Here's to life,' Francis said

'Here's to life,' Francis said
