My Single Friends

My single friends

They go out to all the bars

Stay up late

And write songs and their guitars

Eat like shit in their clothes that still fit

I’m just a little bit

Jealous I admit

My single friends

They’re allowed to make to mistakes

Fall in love and then slam on right breaks

Go have sex with a lunatic ex

While I’m writing checks

I don’t get to have sex

My single friends

Live each night like it’s their last

No regrets, never think about the past

They just drink, get some bad ink

Throw up in the sink, it’s not as fun as you think

No not at all

Boys go out and do your thing

I’ve got lullabies to sing

To these little people

on who happiness I depend

I’ve got a life I wanna keep

Jesus Christ I need to sleep

More than a night that never ends

With my single friends

My single friends

They come over once a year

They’re terrified, they ask me what I’m doing here

Don’t know why my children cry

And my wife won’t say hi, it’s cause she hates these guys

My single friends

Now and then we’ll catch a game

“How’s your wife,” they still call her “what’s her name”

When the game's through, I know just what they'll do

What they always do, I'm done with this crew

I found something new

Boys go out and do your thing

I’ve got lullabies to sing

To these little people

on who happiness I depend

I’ve got a life I wanna keep

Jesus Christ I need to sleep

More than a night that never ends

With my single friends
