Disappointed Lyrics by Icehouse

The Berlin Tapes

0

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Mmm
Promises, promises
Old, tired, worn out, second hand sentences
One thing with you is certain
You're a really sad person
So sad

[Chorus]
Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well, isn't that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?

[Verse 2]
You, you're just a really bad person
Who won't, you won't listen to anyone
Oh no not you
With those half moon eyelids
Just babbling on, your useless defences
So sad

[Chorus]
Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?
(Ahh ahh)

[Verse 3]
This erratic haphazard, fluttering
This to-ing and fro-ing
Like a confused moth
The collusion, illusion
And it's all ad infinitum
You're a really sad person
You're really so sad

[Chorus]
Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well isn't that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
What friends are for (What friends are for)
What are friends for?
(Ahh ahh)
What are friends for?

[Outro]
Fools and horses
Running their courses
And brow beaten down
Like dust on the ground
(What friends are for)
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity
(What are friends for?)
And all of the bastards
The world despises
(What friends are for)
Springing surprises
In newer disguises
(What are friends for?)
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity

Fools and horses
Running their courses
(Disappointed a few people)
And brow beaten down
Like dust on the ground
(What friends are for)
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity
(What friends are for)
And all of the bastards
The world despises
(What friends are for)
Springing surprises
In newer disguises
(What are friends for?)
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity
(What friends are for)

Fools and horses
Running their courses
(What friends are for)
And brow beaten down
Like dust on the ground
(What friends are for)
You cheat easily
Like sweet charity
(What are friends for?)
