Too Many Friends

  • My computer thinks I'm gay
    I threw that piece of junk away
    On the Champs-Élysées
    As I was walking home

    This is my last communiqué
    Down the super-highway
    All that I have left to say
    In a single tome

    I've got too many friends, too many people
    That I'll never meet
    And I'll never be there for
    I'll never be there for
    'Cause I'll never be there

    If I could give it all away
    Would it come back to me someday?
    Like a needle in the hay
    Or an expansive stone
    But I've got a reason to declaim
    The applications are to blame
    For all my sorrow, and my pain
    And feeling so alone

    I've got too many friends, too many people
    That I'll never meet
    And I'll never be there for
    I'll never be there for
    'Cause I'll never be there
    Got too many friends, too many people
    That I'll never meet
    And I'll never be there for
    I'll never be there for
    'Cause I'll never be there

    My computer thinks I'm gay
    What's the difference anyway?
    When all the people do all day
    Is staring into a phone

    I've got too many friends too many people
    That I'll never meet, I'll never be there for
    I'll never be there for, 'cause I'll never be there
    Too many friends too many people
    That I'll never meet, I'll never be there for
    I'll never be there for, 'cause I'll never be there
    I'll never be there, I'll never be there
    I'll never be there, I'll never be there Writer/s: Brian Molko, Stefan Olsdal, Steve Forrest, William Lloyd
