Karaoke Overkill
Robbie Williams · Other Songs - Robbie Williams
Partying is such sweet sorrow today
When you don't know who your friends are
And neither do they
We're all so amused
And maybe it's better that way
She's been seen with him
He's been seen with her
Happy propaganda, just add vodka and stir
Sing "My Way" and mean it, karaoke overkill
We all should know better
But I bet we never will
We're insecure
Making me think I'm not fit to lace your drink
I've seen you in Marbella
You're a real player, taking it easy
We all know we shouldn't
And that is why we do it
Here's my glass house
Why don't you come and view it?
Sing "My Way" and mean it, karaoke overkill
We all should know better
But I bet we never, the sooner the better
I'll send you a letter
Hanging with your sister
Playing naked Twister
Down to your toga
Playing strip poker
Give us a clue
Seeing the night through
And you're so keen the song ain't about you
Hanging with your sister
Playing naked Twister
Down to your toga
Playing strip poker
