lyrics

Well, I don't change my mind too often
I speak the truth and in facts
Could my opinion ever soften?
We'll have to see about that

Friends, they come and go so freely
And I don't think about the end
This one friend, well he shot me in the back
But all in all, I pity the coward, Jack

She was weeping when I saw her
Far adrift in a dream
Although I knew that he adored her
Hope was lost or so it seemed

One by one, they all ran away
And I was nothing but a friend
And then he went and he shot me in the back
But all in all, I pity the coward, Jack

Life is made up of bad memories
And lots of blurred photographs
All the quotes that you've misheard
Do you remember all the laughs?

Well, I'm not bitter, I just pity the coward, Jack
But I wonder, does he pity me back?

The Doubtfires are a duo from Nottingham, made up of Oliver Cobbin and Joss Hollingworth. We both play a variety of instruments, and self-produce all of our own music.

We've known each other since the age of 8 and have grown up playing music together. We've recorded songs here and there over the years but it wasn't until 2020 that we actually attempted a full album.
