You Only Call Me When You're Drunk - Ed Harcourt

You only call me when you’re drunk

Deplorable old friend, somewhere in the East end

I guess you have me on speed-dial

For your eyesight is too blurred, to text me any words

I’ve got no bone to pick with you

Don’t be a mournful dog, I just want it to stop

As dreamers we’d scream all the songs

That we’d known all our lives off the roofs of the city bankers

Break in the windows, burn all the documents

Rich daddy’s boys bunch of…

You only call me when you’re drunk

Cursing down the phone, you can’t stand being alone

I picture you asleep on a bench

Half frozen in the snow, someone I used to know

Give all your sadness a last embrace

Turn up sober at my place, we’ll talk about it face to face

As dreamers we’d scream all the songs

That we’d known all our lives off the roofs of the city bankers

Break in the windows, burn all the documents

Rich daddy’s boys…

Rich daddy’s boys!

You only call me when you’re drunk…
