Lyrics:

Walking down Oxford Road
It seems that nothing's changed
Why does it leave me cold?
Must be more than Manchester rain
Great place to piss a loan away
But God Forbid you’d ever stay
You come and go, come and go, come and go
You used to be a friend of mine
You come and go, come and go, come and go
You left that life behind
Have you really changed so much since then?
Has it really been that long?
One minute you're here, next one your gone
Oh weren’t the locals quaint?
Oh weren’t the protests fun?
Second you graduate
Join daddy’s firm in London
Last season's look inside the halls
Was having Che Guevara hanging from your wall, 3 foot tall
I guess those lies were just your size
While you were dreaming of the money and sunny skies

You come and go, come and go, come and go
You used to be a friend of mine
You come and go, come and go, come and go
You left that life behind
I thought that we were gonna smash-that-system
Singing along to the Billy Bragg song
One minute you're here, next one your gone
It took a little time to find out
Revolutionary September to May
I guess the systems here to stay
You come and go, come and go, come and go
You used to be a friend of mine
You come and go, come and go, come and go
You left that life behind
Have I really changed so much since then?
Has it really been that long?
One minute you're here, next one your gone
