Pocket - Sam Sparro

If you stand tall with your back to the door

Then it’s your own fault when you get knocked to the floor

You may have fooled me once

But I’ve got a pretty damn good memory

It’s a small world, what a tired cliché

But it’s a small world, how many times can I say

That everything you do will end up coming right back around again

And if you don’t know that by now

Then I feel quite sorry for you

I’m sorry for you

Yeah, the people that you keep around

Well, you learn from them and they learn from you

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Yeah, keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Well you just might start to melt them down

And I come around

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

It’s a long haul to the front of the line

And you get there in your own sweet time

But there’s always somebody who decides to cut right in front of you

Wide eyed, looking for a ticket to ride

It’s a long night, I hope we make it out alive

You can’t spend your whole life worrying about what’s behind you

And if you don’t know that by now

Then I feel quite sorry for you

I’m sorry for you

Yeah, the people that you keep around

Well, you learn from them and they learn from you

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Yeah, keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Well you just might start to melt them down

And I come around

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Oh, it’s a life in colour, not black and white

But some people think they’re the ones who got it right

In a room so full, well

You have to be a little more flexible

And if you don’t know that by now

Then I feel quite sorry for you

I’m sorry for you

Yeah, the people that you keep around

Well, you learn from them and they learn from you

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Yeah, keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket

Well you just might start to melt them down

And I come around

So keep your friends close

And your enemies in your pocket
