    Next I was on the bog.                 And you got down on one knee.
    You were protesting your innocence.    And started to cry, just as I started to pee.

   I didn't shag him.           He slept on the couch in the kitchen.
   He might as well be a girl.  He's good for a laugh and he's good for bitching.

Verse 2:
You said you'd never be willing or able.
And he looks like he was made on a fucking table.
Although, to be fair, I think he hides the bolts quite well. 
But as soon as he opens his mouth you can just tell.
I had just assumed you'd completely gone off shagging. 
and I can you seen you with your new Uni pals, standing bragging. 

Bridge:
Now he's your boyfriend and I know you were talking shite. 
But you still denied it when I met you at someone's birthday party the other night. 

Chorus:
I didn't shag him. He slept on the couch in the kitchen. 
We have a good laugh when we're sitting bitching.

Outro Section:

Lyrics for Outro:
-----------------
The words that you used to think turned me on just made me laugh. 
"Do you want to suck my cunt?" in real life just sounds naff. 
And when we were with your friends I just as well might of been no one. 
And you can't get over your dead dog - well it takes one to know one.
