lyrics

Dougie says he ’s fine today. He ’ll surely call me
when he gets back to the states.
Dougie says nothing is wrong just ’cause he passed out
in the middle of a song.
He says it’s nice we are so concerned with
his health and welfare at last, but just kiss his ass
’cause he ’s got things under control now.
Dougie says he likes he there, it’s not the kind of scene
you find just anywhere.
He knows the future tense of boys.
He’s only playing with a couple of his toys.
While all his friends were ball and chaining,
he took himself to the east, so Dougie at least
could have a little fun now.
The first peaches of summer are tumbling from the
trees.
Dougie says that he ’ll try to get back to me, maybe
next week.
When you’re always the same and you never change
then that means that you’ve stopped growing
So Dougie says he ’s to blame for letting his growth
keep showing.
Dougie says a lot you see, or I imagine that he must,
just not to me.
Dougie says a lot to them. He buys the drinks and then
he buys the drinks again.
So if it’s all the same to Dougie,
I think I’ll have one myself, and everyone else
Can take a flying fuck now.
