Wild Horses

[Verse 1: Plan B]

When I look at you now I just can't understand

How I ever could of looked up to you, man

Still I'm passed being mad, or losing my rag

Just find it sad 'cause you're the closest thing I had to a dad

And instead of looking up, I'm looking down at you fella

Days where I believed your crap have come and gone like the weather

Still you hide beneath your rain coat and stolen umbrella

What's wrong with you bredda

Come on, fucking get it together

You're getting close to fifty now - mature age

So let go of the whiskey now and start acting your age

Can't spend the rest of your life killing your liver

Spend your last days acting like you don't give a

Shit about nothing, now you're old and you're bitter

'Cause your ex left you for another man she found fitter

Fitter, enough to raise two kids anyway

'Cause you ain't fit to be a fucking dad in any way

You're a degenerate alcoholic and have been for years

Your eyes are dry now but not the tracks of your tears

And I see where they lead, man I'm sorry that you're hurt

But you can only blame yourself now you're dick's in the dirt

[Hook: The Rolling Stones]

Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away

[Verse 2: Plan B]

Down the pub each day in the Old Nag's Head, just stay

Even wild, wild horses couldn't drag you away

Yeah, that's the one ain't it didn't you say

At your funeral that's the song you want them to play?

You ain't got long now to go, bruv

Now it's clear you a slave

To the drink

You'd sooner drink yourself into your grave

It's got to the stage where you love to drink every day

I say love as if you didn't love it, you sober up but hey

What you love more the suds or your own flesh and blood?

'Cause blud it's been two years since you even gave them a hug

Let alone even let them hear your voice

There's no excuse it's not like you haven't got a choice;

What you gotta do is 'fix up, look sharp', stop drinking

Don't poison your body with anything that stops you thinking

You're too old for all that

You've had your time, man, don't act like a fool

Acting like you got a full cap of money for your youth's

You say you work just a sperm bank

Then show your ex some proof, just a piece of what you earn, man

'Cause right now she's the only one who's paying for their schooling

No matter how much of a bitch you say she is, that's appalling

[Hook: The Rolling Stones]

Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away

[Verse 3: Plan B]

When you gonna learn man? You fucked up again

Went and got another bird up the fucking duff again

No doubt you won't give out for this one like the others

And you dirty fucking pisshead cunt thank you God for mothers

'Cause dads ain't worth shit, It must be hereditary

You never knew yours and your kids don't know you

So set it G, a date with a surgeon, under local anaesthetic Keith

I think it's time you went and got yourself a vasectomy

For real, I ain't joking blud I've fucking had enough

You know what it was like for both of us growing up

You never had a dad well neither did I and you know it blud

'Cause you knew my dad you knew when he left I was only a pup

So I can't condone that shit, abandoning your kids, you're a prick

I don't care what you say man, you make me sick

There's no excuse for that shit, you say you don't know where they are

But there's ways of finding out, you're just not trying very hard

They can't have gone very far your ex's family's still about

You could write your ex a letter asking her "let's sort this out"

And give it to her mum, so that she can pass it on

But I suppose that's hard to do when you're motherfucking drunk

So you know what? Fuck it, or leave it alone

As long as you leave me alone 'cause you don't need to be known

Like those chiefs who private number me and breathe down the phone

Don't give a fuck about you now your true colours are shown

Next time you'll sees me at your funeral 'Wild Horses' by The Stones

So keep your fucking drink you'll need it now you're all on your own

[Hook: The Rolling Stones]

Wild horses couldn't drag me away

Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
