Friend of Mine
Lily Allen Lyrics
I don't want us to have a fight
But in the background
I can hear you chatting shite
I hear it every night
And you think you're being really cool
And you've been doing it
Since we were both at school
Now who looks like a fool
You're no friend of mine, girl
You're just a waste of time, girl
Why don't you have another line, girl?
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
What happened to the good old days?
I was kinda hoping this was all a stupid phase
Who are you anyway?
I know you've heard this all before
I know some people who are calling you a whore
Don't know you anymore
You're no friend of mine, girl
And I've known it for a while, girl
You're just a waste of time, girl
Why don't you have another line, girl?
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck
Tell me what did you expect
Have you got no self respect?
Reputation to protect?
Soon you'll be a nervous wreck

She is the daughter of Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen. Allen left school when she was 15 and concentrated on improving her performing and compositional skills. She started her musical career in 2002 by signing to London Records. In 2005, she made some of her recordings public on Myspace and the publicity resulted in airplay on BBC Radio 1 and a contract with Regal Recordings.
Her first mainstream single, "Smile", reached number one on the UK Singles Chart in July 2006. Her debut record, Alright, Still, was well received, selling over 2.6 million copies worldwide and brought Allen a nomination at the Grammy Awards, BRIT Awards and MTV Video Music Awards. She began hosting her own talk-show, Lily Allen and Friends, on BBC Three.
Her second studio album, It's Not Me, It's You, saw a genre shift, having more of an electropop feel, rather than the ska and reggae influences of the first one. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and the Australian ARIA Charts and was well received by critics, noting the singer's musical evolution and maturity. It spawned the hit singles "The Fear" and "Fuck You", popular mostly in Europe. Allen and Amy Winehouse have been credited with starting a process that led to the media-proclaimed "year of the women" in 2009 that saw five female artists making music of "experimentalism and fearlessness" nominated for the Mercury Prize.

This song is really nice to listen to with low volume while you're sitting in a window seat overlooking the city streets on the 10th floor of an apartment while it's rainging like crazy outside.

Bob Smith
Seriously underrated artist. Perfect blend of talent and relatable lyrics. She can be funny and touching in the same song. If you don't own this album I fully recommend it. Great summer driving tunes
The Kids,the Aborganie and the Future

“Hi. Um, I’m just wondering, have you got any kind of like sort of punky electronica kind of grime, kind of like new-wave grime, but kind of maybe like more broken beats, like kind of dubby broken beats, but a little bit kind of soulful, but kind of drum-and-bassy, but kind of more broken drum-and-bass, like kind of broken beats like break beat kind of broken drum-and-bass, kind of— Do you know what I mean? No?”
