Promises, promises
Oh, tired, worn out
Second-hand sentences
One thing with you is certain
You're a really sad person
So sad

[Chorus]
Disappointed a few people
When friendship reared its ugly head
Disappointed a few people
Well, isn't that what friends are for? (what friends are for)
What friends are for? (what friends are for)
What friends are for?

You, you're just a really bad person
Who won't, you won't listen to anyone
Oh, no, not you with those half-moon eyelids
You're just babbling on
You're useless defenses
So sad

[Chorus]

Mmm, this erratic, haphazard flubbering
This to-ing and fro-ing
Like a confused moth
The collusion, the illusion
And it's all ad infinitum
You're a really sad person
You're really so sad
So sad

[Chorus]

What friends are for
(Fools and horses running their courses)
(And brow beaten down like dust on the ground)
What friends are for
(You cheat easily like sweet charity)
What friends are for
(And call the bastards the world all despises)
What friends are for
(Springing surprises in new world disguises)
(You cheat easily like sweet charity)
(Fools and horses running their courses)
Disappointed a few people
(And brow beaten down like dust on the ground)
What friends are for
(You cheat easily like sweet charity)
What friends are for
(And call the bastards the world all dispises)
What friends are for
(Springing surprises in new world disguises)
What friends are for
(You cheat easily like sweet charity)
What friends are for
(Fools and horses running their courses)
What friends are for
