Franz Ferdinand

All My Friends

That's how it starts

We go back to your house

You check the charts

And start to figure it out

And if it's crowded, then all the better

because we know we're gonna be up late

But if you're worried about the weather

then you picked the wrong place to stay

You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan

and the next five years trying to be with your friends again

You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can

yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight

Where are your friends tonight

And so it starts

You switch the engine on

We set controls for the heart of the sun

one of the ways we show our age

And if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up

and if the sun comes up

and I still don't wanna stagger home

Then it's the memory of our betters

that's keeping us on our feet

You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan

and the next five years trying to be with your friends again

You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can

yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight

Where are your friends tonight

where are your friends tonight

It comes apart

the way it does in bad films

Except in parts

when the moral kicks in

Though when we're running out of the drugs

and the conversation's winding away

I wouldn't trade one stupid decision

for another five years of life

You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan

and the next five years trying to be with your friends again

You're talking 45 turns just as fast as you can

yeah, I know it gets tired, but where are your friends tonight

Where are your friends tonight

where are your friends tonight

If I could be with my friends tonight
