lyrics

You and I were in the same English class in twenty oh six
And you would draw pictures of girls' asses
And that’s when I knew that you
You Liked girls' asses

You sat there in your plain white tshirt
Between Tim and Susan
And I could see your nipples through your tshirt
I’m only human
How can I resist you

Hamish
Oh Hamish McMahon
The way that you'd sit in that chair

Hamish
Your pants were so low
I could see your turquoise underwear

Hamish
I’m falling for you
And you’re vain attempts at facial hair

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
I liked you because you were there

You played drums, and just listened to records
You liked Stanley Kubrick
You were always carrying a skateboard
But I never saw you ride it
But I bet you knew lots sweet tricks

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
I think that we’ve got a shot

Hamish
You know that it’s true
Cause we both quote Seth Rogen a lot
(Same sense of humour!?)

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
Your shark tooth necklace looks hot

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
Why won’t you give me a thought?

You dropped out of school in year 10
I never saw you again
But 3 weeks ago I was in Mornington
Singing at the wedding of your best friend

I saw you sculling 2 full glasses
Then you stood on the dance floor
And waited to grab the bridesmaids' asses
And that’s when I knew for sure
There wasn’t much more to

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
Now I know what happened to you

Hamish
Your fly is undone
And your girlfriend is yelling at you

Hamish
He works in real estate now
And has two kids named Zyler and Moon

Hamish
Hamish McMahon
You’re still the McBoy that I knew

Oh remember when
Remember when
Remember when you and AJ handed the same assignment into media class and the teacher was like “well I’m just gonna fail both of you if you both handed in the same thing” and each of you said the other one copied each other, and that was… I should’ve known then

Hamish
