Basically Older Lyrics by Luke Friend

Luke Friend Live Ont’ Sofa - EP

2013

[Verse 1]
At the back of the line
Buying some classic piece of wine is what we live for
Well she's just an 18
Oh no I don't need my fake ID she says at the back of Sainsbury's store

[Chorus]
Well we're all on a hype this time
For some funny reason I've got a good feeling inside
That this starry night we can all just have a laugh
Getting drunk on this warm bottle of fucking crap
We all laid heads again
Unfocused eyes make pretend
All the bad mistakes were good
The Bakers Park is where we'd always end up

[Verse 2]
Well it's only turned half nine
But my friends are into dubstep and grime but Ben Howard's all fine
Well I don't want to talk about fashion sense
Or do you think indie's back in trend, do you think it looks good?

[Chorus]
Well we're all on a hype this time
For some funny reason I've got a good feeling inside
That this starry night we can all just have a laugh
Getting drunk on this warm bottle of fucking crap
We all laid heads again
Unfocused eyes make pretend
All the bad mistakes were good
The Bakers Park is where we'd always end up

[Middle 8]
Well we look the part, antisocial teenagers we are
Are you meant to rise when your mums and dads noticed your big bloodshot eyes?
Well we look the part, antisocial teenagers we are
Are you meant to rise when your mums and dads noticed your big bloodshot eyes?
Oh yeah
Oh no

[Chorus]
Well we're all on a hype this time
For some funny reason I've got a good feeling inside
That this starry night we can all just have a laugh
Getting drunk on this warm bottle of fucking crap
We all laid heads again
Unfocused eyes make pretend
All the bad mistakes were good
The Bakers Park is where we'd always end up

[Outro]
The Bakers Park is where we'd always end up
The Bakers Park is where we'd always end up
