Smoke alarm went off at night
I woke up wiped the sleep out of my eye
She left a note, I'll be back in five
Well I'm still waiting for that moment

Ed is telling us how he woke up in the night one day. Supposedly, a smoke alarm went off and woke him up from his sleeping. When he was looking for his girlfriend, she had been gone, but she left a note saying "I'll be back in five" (five meaning five minuets). "Well I'm still waiting for that moment to arrive" means that Ed's lover never came back.

You wanna be loved
I never told her that I liked
The way she dances slightly out of time
And pretends she knows the words, to a song she's never heard

Ed is recalling all the things he never told his lover he liked about her. He never told her he likes all the small wrong things she does, like dancing off-beat, or singing the lyrics to a song she doesn't know well.

a roll up
When I see my friends all they say is hold up
And remember the times
When we were in school, listening to grown ups
Didn't learn a thing, but then again you know what
You know how to sing
But you don't

Ed is explaining to us that his friends are reminding him of the past. When all of them were in school together being taught, Ed didn't learn a single thing. They say that's okay though, because Ed knows how to sing and make a living out of it. However, he doesn't "know anything other than that"

Hey!
I was told to put my job in front of you,
But it won't hold me
