The Lads Songtext
von Kaiser Chiefs

Some of you I′ve known since we were six years old
Some of you I've known since we were ten
The common denominator is that you′re my oldest friend

Some of us have tried to set our future straight
And most of us are firing in the dark
When you've got good men around you
It makes life a lot less hard

Oh, how wonderful, how uncool
That I'm still hanging out with all my friends from school

We′re the lads, we′re the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we're going
But we′ll go there together
From here to forever
We will always be there for our friends


We're the lads, we′re the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we're going
But we′ll go there together, from here to forever
We will always be there for our friends
Yeah, we're the lads

If we can't save each other′s lives in future wars
And we don′t lose each other to our loves
Then we'll cast familiar shadows in the last remaining public houses

Oh, how wonderful, how uncool
That I′m still hanging out with all my friends from school

We're the lads, we′re the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we're going
But we′ll go there together, from here to forever
We will always be there for our friends

We're the lads, we're the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we′re going
But we′ll go there together, from here to forever
We will always be there for our friends


We're the lads, we′re the lads, we're the lads
We won′t be here forever
We are stronger and brighter than ever
We will go there together
We will always remember

We're the lads, we′re the lads
We are champions among men
We are constantly to-ing and fro-ing
We are giants and warriors
With an "Oh, I adore you"

We're the lads, we're the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we′re going
But we′ll go there together, from here to forever
We will always be there for our friends

We're the lads, we′re the lads
We are champions among men
We have no idea where we're going
But we′ll go there together, from here to forever
We will always be there for our friends

La, la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La, la-la-la-la, la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
We're the lads
