Some of you I’ve known since we were six years old
Some of you I’ve know 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 mеn
We have no idea whеre were 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 save each other's lives in future wars
And we don’t lose each other to our loves
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
Yeah 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 yous

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
