All dressed up on a Friday nightGetting drunk on cheap red wineTwo north London boys just out on the townCatch a train up to cool SohoThe Marquee and The FlamingoPills and chills and girls in heels and Georgie Fame, yeahMaking out we were millionairesAnything to get the girl upstairsWhat was it you said, humour before looks works every timeSkinny ties and mohair suitsWhite boys can't sing the bluesThis was our time, our space, our songs, our generationAnd I'll never know againSomeone as genuineSomeone as wonderful as youAnd I can't believe you're goneThat's why I wrote this songGoodbye my old friendI'll miss you, yes, I willSo long my best palI'll miss you, yes, I willOh you, yeah youWere like a brother to meTake a walk down Wardour streetIn the pub where we used to meetI step inside and I imagine you're thereDolled up in a hound's-tooth suitButtoned down shirt and Chelsea bootsWe had a bond that should've lasted a lifetimeBut I hope you're looking downAnd I hope I made you proudWhat I'd give to see you in the crowd tonight, ahh yeahAnd when we meet againThere will be no endJust me and you manGoodbye my old friendI'll miss you, yes, I willYeah, so long my best palI'll miss you, yes, I willOh you, yeah youWere like a brother to meIntellect and common senseMeans nothing at all if you sit on the fenceAnarchy is for the foolhardyWhy rail against societyAim high, reach for the skyHow you gonna know unless you tryThese are your words, not mineSo long old friendGoodbye my old friendI'll miss you, yes, I willSo long my best palI'll miss you, yes, I willOh you, yeah youWere a brother to me
