What Became Of The Likely Lads Lyrics - The Libertines - Libertines

Please don't get me wrong 

See I forgive you in a song 

Will call the likely lads 

But, if it's left to you 

I know exactly what you'd do 

With all the dreams we had 

Just blood runs thicker, oh 

We're as thick as thieves, you know 

If that's important to you 

It's important to me 

I tried to make you see 

But, you don't wanna know 

You don't want to know 

If you pipe all summer long 

Then get forgiven in a song 

Well that's a touch, my lad 

They sold the rights to all the wrongs 

And when they knew you'd give me songs 

"Welcome back", I said 

The blood runs thicker, oh 

We're as thick as thieves, you know 

If that's important to you 

It's important to me 

I tried to make you see 

But, you don't wanna know 

You don't want to know 

Oh, what became of the likely lads? 

What became of the dreams we had? 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

We'll never know 

Please don't get me wrong 

See I forgive you in a song 

Will call the likely lads 

We all bought the ones 

We taught 'em all we wrote the songs 

That's filled with dreams we have 

But, blood runs thicker, oh 

We're as thick as thieves, you know 

If that's important to you 

It's important to me 

I tried to make you see 

But, you don't wanna know 

You don't want to know 

Oh, what became of the likely lads? 

What became of the dreams we had? 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

We'll never know 

But, blood run thicker, oh 

We're as thick as theives you know 

And that important to you 

Yes, it important to me 

I tried to make you see 

But, you dont want to know 

Oh, what became of the likely lads? 

What became of the dreams we had? 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

Oh, what became of forever? Though 

We'll never know
