Owen - Bad News lyrics
[Owen - Bad News lyrics]
Whatever it is you think you are you aren't
A good friend, unique, well-read
Good-looking or smart well, now you know
Well I hate to be the one
To bear such bad news
I know it hurts to hear but it's true
You don't mean anything to anyone but me
And even I think that
You're blinded by conceit so now you know
Free beer and basement shows
Don't mean you've made it it's what you do
Not who you were or what you wear
Or where you've been so do something
Whoever you think is watching you dance
From across the room they aren't
If anything, they feel sorry for you
'Cause you try so hard
I know it hurts to hear
But it's the truth so you
Might as well hear it from a friend
You're a has-been that never was
I know it's mean to say
But it's something I've been meaning
To say to you for a while
You're a has-been that never was or will be
A good friend, unique, well-read
Good-looking or smart well, now you know
Well I hate to be the one
To bear such bad news
I know it hurts to hear but it's true
You don't mean anything to anyone but me
And even I think that
You're blinded by conceit so now you know
Free beer and basement shows
Don't mean you've made it it's what you do
Not who you were or what you wear
Or where you've been so do something
Whoever you think is watching you dance
From across the room they aren't
If anything, they feel sorry for you
'Cause you try so hard
I know it hurts to hear
But it's the truth so you
Might as well hear it from a friend
You're a has-been that never was
I know it's mean to say
But it's something I've been meaning
To say to you for a while
You're a has-been that never was or will be
