Take the Oasis, tell them you love them

they'll write you love songs

send them roses, poems

give them even juice from the heart;

always make them feel important,

buy all the CDs originals,

always be present at the concerts,

watch even the DVDs.

 

And be sure that he will leave,

those who are too loved don’t give love,

and be sure that he will leave them

the one who loves less is the strongest, as we know.

 

Take the Oasis, treat them badly,

use emule for hours,

don’t see them live or if you do

do it like it’s a favor

make them feel they are not important,

balance love and cruelty well,

a good debut

but now they make poop.

 

And then yes, you'll see the rockstar won't do

those who are less loved give you more love,

and then yes, you'll see the fool won't do

the one who loves less is the strongest, as we know.

 

No dear friend,

I disagree,

you speak like a wounded man

piece of bread… he left

and you couldn’t resist…

Within two hours,

you already replaced him

with the Portugal. The Man

who are certainly not the R.E.M.

less Brit pop and more soul

but you already feel less alone

 

You rarely shower

but every now and then it’s your turn too,

and this album you will hum

this is the only law there is.
