Forest Hills

We phoned up and left a story with their parents
We told them mine were still there
So they couldn't come until tomorrow
I think we just wanted some time to ourselves
Because we knew that by then everyone wasn't getting on

So we sat on the veranda and watched the sun set over the loch
Listened to some quiet tunes, finished a bottle of whiskey
And agreed that it'd never be as good as before
Like when we met those girls and we went swimming at night

Except mathew, who still can't swim
They were younger than us, we never got anywhere in the end
But it would've spoiled it if we had
And we piled up all the empties against the big window
And I had everybody pose in front, I took the pictures

Then there was that time we gatecrashed the graduation ball
In the hotel next to the lodge
Pretended to be students and pretended to be their pals
They were dressed in their kilts and evening gowns
And we walked in with our jeans and gutties on

Nearly got our heads kicked in
And on the way back we bumped into that guy
With the pro-life sticker on his car window
And he got some abuse

But it turned out they had phoned my house
And spoke to my mum, so they knew we were here
And they turned up at about one or two
By that time we were really pissed
So the holiday didn't really get off to a good start

And you didn't really help matters
When you went with neil's girlfriend
We never see them now
But I can't say I miss them
