The Football Club - Footscray lyrics

[Verse 1] I ran for the train today I made it through those metal doors as they were closing on my face And I smiled in relief at the people in their seats Like a runner from Chariots of Fire I went to the shops today I watched the people as they struggled with the self-service to pay And a man in front of me who's worked for years as an MD Calls the sixteen-year-old check out girl to come To help him scan a box of condoms [Chorus] And I didn't think about you once I paid for my things and I just kept going As long as I keep my mind I won't be ever alone again [Verse 2] I went to a film today I sat front and centre by myself in a romantic comedy But the thing that you don't see after the credits leave the screen Is that the couple break up after like a week 'Cause who would want to live that happily? [Chorus] And I didn't think about you once I walked to the train and I just kept going As long as I keep my mind I won't be ever alone again Ever alone again, ever alone again [Verse 3] I saw all my friends today We picked up our guitars and we pretended we could play And we're all kind of dumb and we're all kind of f**ed up But I wouldn't want it any other way Not for all the tea in China, not for all the sh**ty coffee in Footscray
