Franz Ferdinand - Goodbye Lovers & Friends Lyrics
Don’t play pop music
You know I hate pop music
Just sing amazing godless grace
Don’t wear bright colours
I never liked you for the way you dressed
Anyway
Goodbye lovers and friends
So sad to leave you
When they lie and say
“This is not the end”
you can laugh as if
we’re still together
you can laugh about it all
I hope you didn’t bring flowers
Hope you didn’t write a poem
Hope you remember every fight
I know I could be noxious
Or occasionally cruel
But only to the ones
I loved
Goodbye lovers and friends…
Don’t get inventory
Don’t fake your memory
Don’t give me virtues that I never had
Don’t get sychophantal
We never were sentimental
I know I took more than I ever gave
I don’t need to be forgiven
But a moment from the living
That’s the only thing I ask
Goodbye lovers and friends…
…you can laugh as if
we’re still together
but this really is the end

Franz Ferdinand Goodbye Lovers & Friends Comments
Very bright group
It's a masterpiece though I'm not a fan of words. Is it bad? All of a sudden I met someone famous and treated me like a talk show apparently it wasn't ok that I didn't laugh or bring a crowd with me every place I go. What's with you man, that vibe. I honestly just wanted to check if it was indeedy who I thought it was
lyricsssssss
Don't play pop music, no
You know I hate pop music
Just sing amazing godless grace
I don't wear bright colours, oh
You know I hate bright colours
I never liked you for the way you dressed
Anyway
Goodbye lovers and friends
So sad to leave you
When they lie and say
"This is not the end"
You can laugh as if
We're still together
You can laugh about it all
Anyway
I hope you didn't bring flowers
Hope you didn't write a poem
Hope you remember every fight
I know I could be noxious
Or occasionally cruel
But only to the ones
I loved
So goodbye lovers and friends
So sad to leave you
When they lie and say
"This is not the end"
You can laugh as if
We're still together
You can laugh about it all
Don't get inventory
Don't fake your memory
Don't give me virtues that I never had
Don't get sychophantal
We never were sentimental
I know that I took more than I ever gave
I don't need to be forgiven
But a moment from the living
Yeah that's the only thing I ask
So don't play pop music, no
You know I hate pop music
Just sing amazing godless grace
So goodbye lovers and friends
It's so sad to leave you
When they lie and say
"This is not the end"
You can laugh as if
We're still together
But this really is the end
you know i hate pop music.
Godless Grace is pretty damn sick.
My fav. from this band
so sad to leave you McCarthy 😥
Who knew bitterness and resentment could sound so SASSY
Sounds like another case of 40' "okay that's a great album lets make a vicious yet stylish song about death."
40' is subjective. You think it's about death, I think it's about work.
40' feet can also be a rumour in Scotland abouta treasure under a casino, 40 feet beneath it. But it's just impossible to get to it. But this song is about a funeral for sure.
SteampunkTigerlily18 I hear 40' as a point in a person's life where they have to make a choice. Jump or stay.
I think 40' is about jumping off a cliff to the water
Nick :(
At least they say he will come back
Super!!!
This song has the tribal vibe that I kinda addict to, did anyone know any other song sounds like this? <3
Listen to The Amazing Sounds of Orgy by Radiohead. I hope that you like it.
Thank you :D Nice to know!!
sounds creepy but in a cool way :)
the other side of paradise - glass animals
WHY DOES THIS MAKE ME FEEL HAPPY AND SAD AT THE SAME TIME
Ironically, this is the last song as Franz Ferdinand, before FFS. Coincidence?
+Nuno Prospero dos Santos Sad...
Nuno Prospero dos Santos um... but they're making a new album?
butt butts I hope só, but... with or without Nick? With Sparks?
Nuno Prospero dos Santos they will have some concerts later this year so i hope with nick.
Goodbye lovers and Franz.
Sorry, I had to.
+Ian Favreau that was perfect thank u for that not being sarcastic promise
Good to you bro
Goodbye to you brother
Me encanta esta canción. Amo Franz Ferdinand
"So don't play pop music, no. You know I hate pop music".
dawno już mnie nikt tak nie zaskoczył-nie mogę przestać słuchać. Super!
"lovely lovely". I don't know why but I really love that bit.
I entered here just to post that, awesome.
Probably my favorite song off this album. Franz Ferdinand is 100% in my top faves
goodbye bloggers and youtubers #blog #youtubesong :-)
"We re still together but this really is the end?" I just love that part :3
I love this song, but first i understood "if the lion say". That appeared weird :D
sERPENTINE
gross sobbing
Woo-hoo! Franz Ferdinand is an amazing band.
Undoubtedly referring to the fact that Alex is atheist and does not believe in an after life. Even though I am Christian, I love this song. The tone is perfect for the unapologetic, melancholy message. Beautifully written, love these guys.
me: ~goodbye lovers and friends its so sad to leave you~ FOSHIZZLE THIS TIME
Just stopped talking with someone I cared for and this song fits perfectly. I fucking love this album.
underated song
I don't know why... But these "lovely, lovely" at the beginning of the song sounds me like... Pitbull ._.
BTW, one of my favorite songs of this amazing band.
Bah, Indeed, all his songs are one of my favorites
damn it, you are right. I had never thought about it and now every damn time I listen to the song I notice that "lovely, lovely" part hahaha
"Don't play pop music, you know I hate pop music" I think they did that on purpose..
"Don't play pop music.. you know I hate pop music!".. my thoughts exactly! :P
Shut up
Modern punk rock. Love it
Its actually post-punk
Je veux que l'on joue cette musique à mon enterrement ! J'adore Franz Ferdinand <3 J'adore cet album, bravo !
"i don't play pop music, you know i hate pop music" hahahha
found another song for my funeral
The "lovely, lovely" part gets me every time I swear
and AM!
plus Comedown Machine and AM.
Que genial banda <3
2:10 is just pure awesome.
Sequel To The Prequel tambien es buen disco ¬¬}
Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action and ...Like Clockwork. It really has been an amazing year
