Please don't get me wrong

See I forgive you in a song

Will call the Likely Lads 

But if it's left to you

I know exactly what you'd do

With all the dreams we had 



Just blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know! 



If you pipe all summer long

Then get forgiven in a song

Well that's a touch, my lad 



They sold the rights to all the wrongs

And when they knew you'd give me songs

Welcome back, I said 



The blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know! 



* Oh what became of the Likely Lads?

What became of the dreams we had?

Oh what became of forever?

Oh what became of forever?

Though, we'll never know 



Please don't get me wrong

See I forgive you in a song

Will call the Likely Lads 



We all bought the ones

We taught 'em all we wrote the songs

That's filled with dreams we have 



But blood runs thicker, oh

We're as thick as thieves, you know

If that's important to you

It's important to me

I tried to make you see

But you don't wanna know

You don't want to know! 



[Repeat *]
