lyrics

FRIEND
(Chris Hludzik)

You tell me that I’m a good time
But I’m not good enough for ALL of your time
I’m just a jester-
A perfume tester for you to prime

Your eyes seem so sincere,
But it’s really evil stares
Looking down
Turning your smile to an evil frown

I wonder what you say
When I’m not around
When you lift me up,
Are you really bringing me down?

CHORUS:
Some would say that I’m foolish
Some would say that I’m weak
Some would say my soul will never mend
Some would call you a liar
Some would call you a thief
But me? I call you “Friend”.

Your actions make me suspicious
But I’m not one to judge
I don’t like mind games, or dropping names
And I NEVER hold a grudge

Truth is stranger than fiction
But fiction’s much more fun
When you know I’ve nowhere to go
And you’ve got me on the run

I wonder what you’d say
If you could say it to my face
I wonder what I’d say
If I didn’t feel so out of place

CHORUS:

If ya can’t say something nice, then
Don’t say nothing at all
I’d rather shut up
Than have to put up with taking the fall

They say that he who has no sin
Can cast the first stone
That’s not for me –
Just wanna be left alone.

I could’ve saved myself some trouble
If only I knew
All I needed was a friend
But instead, I got YOU

CHORUS:

OUTRO (Repeat through fade):
Goodbye old friend, goodbye!!!
(Good riddance to bad rubbish)
