Lyrics Lily Allen – Alfie
Text:
Oh, oh, deary me,
My little brother’s in his bedroom smoking weed,
I tell him he should get up ’cause it’s nearly half past three
He can’t be bothered ’cause he’s high on THC.
I ask him very nicely if he’d like a cup of tea,
I can’t even see him ’cause his room is so smoky,
Don’t understand how one can watch so much TV,
My baby brother Alfie, how I wish that you could see.
I only say it ’cause I care,
So please can you stop pulling my hair.
Now, now there’s no need to swear,
Please don’t despair, my dear mon frère.
Oh, Alfie, get up. It’s a brand new day,
I just can’t sit back and watch you waste your life away
You need to get a job because the bills need to get paid.
Get off your lazy axs,
Alfie please use your brain
Surely there’s some walls out there that you can go and spray,
I’m feeling guilty for leading you astray,
Now how the hell do you ever expect that you’ll get laid,
When all you do is stay and play on your computer games?
I only say it ’cause I care,
So please can you stop pulling my hair.
Now, now there’s no need to swear,
Please don’t despair, my dear mon frère.
Oh, little brother, please refrain from doing that,
I’m trying to help you out so can you stop being a twat.
It’s time that you and I sat down and had a little chat,
And look me in the eyes. Take off that stupid fitted cap.
I only say it ’cause I care,
Now, now there’s no need to swear,
Please don’t despair
Please don’t despair, my mon frère
