Ooh, ooh, oh, ooh
What is a friend? Could it be that it's just a word? Or something in
Your life that you heard? Or just another one of those big fat lies?
Cause many nights this word has made me cry. So hard my
Stomach hurts. Deep down inside, oh, oh, oh
Uh, uh oh. There goes that word again. (There it goes again)
How do we let it in? I thought you were my friend? (I swear I
Thought you were my friend?). I can't believe my very eyes. (I can't
Believe it). Right to my face you lied. Cause you're my so called
Friend. (Yeah, yeah )
How could you call yourself a friend? Uh, uh oh there goes that
Word again. That brings people together and tears them apart. It's
Always said by those who claim they love you. When all a while
They wanna fill your shoes. And never calling you up with no good
News. Oh, oh no
They always when your blue. (Yeah). They never want the best for
You. (Never, never). They always tryin' to fill your shoes. (I don't
Understand this kind of friend. Ya'll listen oh)
Uh. uh oh. There goes that word again. How do we let it in? (How
Do we let it in?). I thought you were my friend?(I thought you were
My friend?). I can't believe my very eyes. (I can't believe my very
Eyes). Right to my face you lied. (Oh right to my face you lied)
Cause you're my so called friend
Opportunities knocking and here comes my friend. Uh, uh oh
There goes that word again. (They only come around when they
Need something ya'll, listen here, listen here). They call you
Everyday to fill you in. Only want to hang out. So you can spend
On them. (I don't understand, I don't understand this kinda friend
Ah yeah, yeah, ohh)
Uh. Uh oh. There goes that word again. (I, I, I don't understand
This kinda friend). How do we let it in? (I can't believe my very
Eyes. Right to my face you lied). Right to my face you lied. Cause
You're my so called friend
(Friends). Uh. Uh oh. (How many of us have them? I don't really
Think we need them. If your not a friend, yeah). There goes that
Word again. How do we let it in? (A friend. I shouldn't have to buy
You or even lie to you. To keep you as, to you keep as my friend
Yeah). Right to my face you lied. Cause you're my so called friend
Uh. Uh oh. (Oh, ohh, oh, oh, ohh, oh, oh, ooh, ohh,). There goes
That word again. How do we let it in? I thought you were my
Friend?
