Lyrics

We hate it when our friends become successful

We dislike it when our friends achieve success.

We hate it when our friends become successful

Reiteration of the sentiment of disliking friends' success.

Oh, look at those clothes

Expressing disdain towards the fashionable attire.

Now look at that face, it's so old

Commenting on the aged appearance of the person.

And such a video !

Criticizing a particular video associated with the person.

Well, it's really laughable

Labeling the situation as ridiculous.

Ha, ha, ha

Mocking laughter.


We hate it when our friends become successful

Restating the dislike for friends' success.

And if they're Northern, that makes it even worse

Suggesting an added dislike if the successful friend is from the Northern region.

And if we can destroy them

Expressing a desire to undermine or ruin their success.

You bet your life we will

Asserting a commitment to destroying the successful friends.

Destroy them

Reiteration of the intent to destroy.

If we can hurt them

If causing harm is possible, the speaker will do so.

Well, we may as well

Justifying the harm with a resigned acceptance.

It's really laughable

Reiteration of the ridiculousness of the situation.

Ha, ha, ha

Continuation of mocking laughter.


You see, it should've been me

Expressing a belief that the success should have been the speaker's.

It could've been me

Regret about not achieving the success in question.

Everybody knows

Stating that everyone acknowledges this fact.

Everybody says so

Highlighting widespread agreement with the speaker's perspective.

They say :

Quoting what "they" say about the speaker's abundance of songs.


"Ah, you have loads of songs

Quoting the reported statement about the quantity of the speaker's songs.

So many songs

Emphasizing the surplus of songs possessed by the speaker.

More songs than they'd stand

Commenting on the abundance of songs, perhaps more than people can tolerate.


We hate it when our friends become successful

Repetition of the dislike for friends' success.

We hate it when our friends become successful

Reiteration of the Northern friend aspect worsening the situation.

Oh, look at those clothes

Repeating the criticism of clothes and appearance.

Now look at that face, it's so old

Repeating the comment on the aged face.

And such a video !

Repeating the criticism of a specific video.

Well, it's really laughable

Reiterating the absurdity of the situation.

Ha, ha, ha

Continuation of mocking laughter.


We hate it when our friends become successful

Restating the dislike for friends' success.

And if they're Northern, that makes it even worse

Reiterating the heightened dislike for Northern successful friends.

And if we can destroy them

Reiterating the desire to destroy the successful friends.

You bet your life we will

Reaffirming the commitment to destroying them.

Destroy them

Reiteration of the intent to destroy.

If we can hurt them

If causing harm is possible, the speaker will do so.

Well, we may as well

Justifying the harm with a resigned acceptance.

It's really laughable

Reiteration of the ridiculousness of the situation.

Ha, ha, ha

Continuation of mocking laughter.


Just listen

Transitioning to a directive to listen.

La, la-la, la-la

Engaging in a nonsensical or la-la-la refrain.
