lyrics

I had hoped that, things would be like this, for the whole stay.
Finding you with your new friends passed out in the hallway.
This is not what we had imagined for our holidays,
This is not what we had imagined for you, at this stage.
You can carry on like this girl, is it ok?
This is like nothing, nothing like I had in my mind when I planned it,
Nothing like I had in my mind
It’s so much better than everything I had combined
And you told me, I surprised you
And you love it.
I surprised you and you love it.
But now I had hoped, that things would be like this for the whole stay.
Now I feel like I just owe your Dad in the worst way,
How was I supposed to know, that we all pay?
I could spend the evening alone, my mind and the ashtrays.
Yeah this is not what we had imagined for our holidays
Yeah this is not what we had envisaged for our big day
It’s late,
And local currency’s strapped to the thighs,
Of the intimidating hen do,
As they pass by,
Well you should know that your friend’s passed out in the alleyway,
And you should know that she is a victim,
‘Cause all of my mates,
See all of your learner plates.
Yeah we read them,
They’re like beacons in the night.
They’re like beacons in our minds
They’re like beacons burning bright
And this town may be reem,
But it’s nothing like the magazines.
Yeah it’s nothing like the magazines.
It’s nothing like the way they tried to make it seem,
I had hope that things would be like this, for the whole stay,
Finding you with your new friends passed out in the hallway,
This is not what we had imagined for our holidays.
This is not what we had envisaged for our big day.
This is not what we had envisaged for our big day.
Yeah, this is not what we had imagined for our holidays.
