Friends

by Frank Zappa

You say you want to be friends
That's a newly sharpened blade
That's a dagger to the heart
Of the promises we made
That's a chapter full of pain
A season full of rain
A dark and stormy night
Spent all alone
Friends get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves lost for years on end
Friends slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you now and then
But you wanna be just friends
You say you love me very much
And you'll always hold me dear
Those are the sweetest words
I never want to hear
What's a love without desire
A flame without a fire
Can't warm me late at night
When I need you most
Friends get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves lost for years on end
Friends slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you now and then
But you wanna be just friends
Friends slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you now and then
Darling can't you see this is killing me
We could never be just friends

Go I don't need anybody! I don't need anybody!

They don't like it when you call them pistachio nuts,

*Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Ones we can depend on
Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Before we go any further, lets be
Friends*
Is a word we use everyday
Most the time we use it in the wrong way
Now you can look the word up, again and again
But the dictionary doesnt know the meaning of friends
And if you ask me, you know, I couldnt be much help
Because A friend is somebody you judge for yourself
Some are ok, and they treat you real cool
But some mistake kindness for bein a fool
We like to be with some, because they're funny
Others come around when they need some money
Some you grew up with, around the way
And you're still real close too this very day
Homeboys through the Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall
And then there's some we wish we never knew at all
And this list goes on, again and again
But these are the people that we call friends
When we first went out together, we barely knew each other
We had no intentions, on becoming lovers
But in no time at all, you became my girl
Me and you, one on one, against the world
Talkin on the telephone for hours at a time
Or else I was at your house, or you was at mine
Then came the arguements and all kinds of problems
Besides making love, we had nothing in common
It couldnt last long because it started out strong
But I guess we went about the whole thing wrong
Cause out of nowhere it just came to an end
Because we became lovers before we were friends
*Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Ones we can depend on
Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Before we go any further, let's be
Friends*
You say you and your girlfriend were so tight
You took her out with you and your guy one night
She even had a set of keys to your home
And you shared mostly everything you owned
But as she shook your hand, she stole your man
And it was done so swift, it had to be a plan
Couldn't trust her with cheese, let alone your keys
With friends like that you dont need enemies
You wonder how long it was all going on
And your still not sure if your man is gone
You say, well if she took him he was never mine
But deep inside you know thats just another lie
And now you're kinda cold to the people you meet
Cause of something that was done to you by some creep
But nevertheless, I'll say it again
That these are the people that we call friends
*Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Before we go any further, lets be
Friends*
*Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
One's we can depend on
Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
Before we go any further, lets be
Friends*
*Friends
How many of us have them?
Friends
One's we can depend on
Friends
How many of us have them?

Friends

You thought you could make this up one day, all the pain you gave me
When you talked behind my back
I used to call you my friend, but that was long ago
Now I know you as my enemy, and that can't be restored
What did you gain when you stabbed me in my back
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
What did you gain when you broke the trust I gave
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
You really fooled me, I gave you my innermost thoughts
That way I trusted you, like friends should do
You used it against me, like an enemy would do, leave me alone
I don't know you anymore, and that can't be restored
What did you gain when you stabbed me in my back
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
What did you gain when you broke the trust I gave
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone

(Mike Monroe, Hanoi Rocks)
I know a man
back in Japan
Backyard Babies
is his favorite band
(Joey Ramone, Ramones)
I got a friend
His name is Ben
He's gone to hell
but they won't let him in
- Cause there is nothing
that touches me the way they do
and all the lies, you've been hearin' baby
they're all true
- Cause there is nothin'
that touches me they way they do
Nothing touches me the way these people do
(Danko Jones)
I got a friend
Her name is Grace
When we broke up
it put a smile on my face
(Tyla, Dogs D'Amour)
And there's a girl
that I love
Sadly she resides in
heaven up above
- Cause there is nothing
that touches me the way they do
and all the lies, you've been hearin' baby
they're all true
- Cause there is nothin'
that touches me they way they do
Nothing touches me the way these people do
Look at all these lonely people
They're born to lose
But they can not die
(Nina Persson, Cardigans)
I love my friend
My only friend
He doesn't know me
But his word is my command
(Kory Clarke)
We meet our friends
Down at the bar
Celebrity intoxicated stars
- Cause there is nothing
that touches me the way they do
and all the lies, you've been hearin' baby
they're all true
- Cause there is nothin'
that touches me they way they do
Nothing touches me the way these people do

I'm staring at the front door in my coat
It's kinda rainy, i've a feeling i don't want to know
I'm walking down the pavement, here i go
I'm heading for a place i've been a million times before
And there's a thousand better ways that i could spend my time
Than coversation with somebody where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people i can be around and not pretend
That i've been everywhere before
And i call 'em my friends
Friends
Somebody's got a party where i go
I wish i lost the invitation
There's nobody there i know
Conversation gets too loud
Too many people want to talk
I wish they'd turn it all down
And everybody's got a million different points of view
But when you're looking out the window
That they're looking through
Don't you think it's kinda stupid
Trying to jump onto the rat race
Train that's going the same way too
And there's a thousand better ways that i could spend my time
Than coversation with somebody where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people i can be around and not pretend
That i've been everywhere before
And i call 'em my friends
Friends
I look at my reflection on their wall
I feel so empty
I'm surprised to see my face in there at all
I make up an excuse to call my phone
And less than 20 minutes later
I'm in a taxi heading home
And richard burton's on a bender trying to get back home
He's never been so many miles
From back where he comes from
He must be 20 times the legal limit staring at the end
There's not a telephone for miles
I want to talk to my friends
There's a thousand better ways
That i can spend my time
Than coversation with somebody where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people i can be around and not pretend
That i've been everywhere before
And i call 'em my friends

by Talking Heads

Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
I can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
And with the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
No, a lifetime's not too long to live as friends

by Cream

Living a lie, let's not pretend
That you like me or we are friends
We can call it for the few
That are listening tonight
We'll divide the dream cut the loss
Feel no pain, you can cut the fame
You can cut the fame
For the ones that are listening
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
Your future's bleak, you better save your skin
It's that flesh you smell, it's that skin you're in
Your soul is rotting as well as your innards
Your mind and teeth they're getting thinner
Selfish, selfsustaining
Regrets, unmistaking
The fame--you can cut the fame
For the ones that are listening
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
Sleep well, sleep tight
You know this song is about you don't you?
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again
All this time that I called you friend
I won't be there for you again

why do we bother sometimes
why not give this shit up
we're meant to be friends but we
can't let our guard down for too long
we value our friendship so highly
but too easily forgotten
when we want what we want
we were so tight when we were seventeen
what fucking happend that's what I want to know
I think we've lost touch with
what our friendships really all about
or maybe things have changed
people do that's cool we can work it out
now we are older and stronger
and more our own men
just a little confused cause we don't understand
why we can't hangout forever like the old days
our friendship was real it couldn't
have been just a phase the conflict we feel
in fact is just confussion cause it feels
like you went and changed it
wasn't me it wasn't you it's all and illusion
happens to us all its just not that strange
I thought we were meant to be friends
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give
We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night I get a call and I know that you're well
And days I was down you would help me get out of my hole
Ohhhhhhhh
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Dim dipple ee dim dipple ay dim dipple oo dim dee aye oh

and I know as time goes but where never gonna pretend
cause you and me will always be friends
so if you’re feeling all alone remember good times or remember home
and if you question all that you see remember that you always got a friend in me
cause I know we all gotta grow

so we say nothing is a possibility if you don’t got your friends

Hey momma! Can't you see I'm fuckin' cookin'?
It wasn't right for me but I knew it was time for home.
It was half past ten but all the lights were on.
Did you read his face as blank as it was.
Well mother would sit him down as strictly where he was.
And he said...
All my friends, are bloated and floating away.
I left all my friends back around the bend.
The water turned to black as the night rolled on in.
I couldn't hear a sound as I slowly turned around.
There I saw my friends all god damn face down.
And he said...
All my friends, are bloated and floating away.
And I walk on down, I don't feel the pain.
And I'll raise my eyes.
Won't you let me raise my eyes?
Momma let me raise my eyes?
Won't you let me raise my eyes again?
All my friends, are bloated and floating away.

Beneficial wars
Black company cars
Two thirty years old [?]
Compared to your scars [?]
Foreign Politics
Middle aged kicks
Wave your flags, wave your dicks

Farewell, world ends
Couldn't care less, I'm watching Friends

English speaking are starting machines, Lending Mars
Devour everything, without a feeling

Who cheers you up
When you are down
Who brings you cups of coffee
Who picks you up
When you're in town
Whatever makes you happy
And I'm glad you're better now
But I'm sad you're not around
Friends
Won't ever desert you
Or turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence
Who wakes you up
When you're late for work
Who makes the bed so lovely
Who found your sock
Who picked your shirt
Whatever makes you love me
And I'm glad I'm better now
But I'm just sad you're not around
Friends
Will never decieve you
Or turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence...

Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
[Snoop Doggy Dogg]
Every since I could remember
I had friends I could depend on
Clothes to lend 'em
But as time went by
My life got a little strange
And the rules of the game seem to change
Trust, honesty and devotion
And money, money, money is the poison potion
There's no way that I can even say
That this game has been good to me
Or even bad to me it had to be
Cause tragically the way this shit
Cracked off for Doggy Dogg was magically
And now I'm gettin' everything I'm supposed to get
But my friendship with niggaz always ends up as bulshit
I listen to my momma though
She always tried to prepare me
Byt how could she do what I
I mean I'm do or die
But my life on the streets
That shit is suicide
So to cope I got a dogg and a locc
And keep my heat close in case these jokes go for broke
I'm mashin' with the click 2-1-3 that is
They my homeboys ever since kids-
Real friends to the end
[Chorus (Nate Dogg):]
Hangin' out with my homies and I'm feelin' just fine
I've been ponderin' lately
A lot of different things on my mind
It seems lately my friends list
Done took a slight decline
And if you wanna know the trith man, man
Them wasn't no friends of mine
[Warren G]
You jackin' me up, you takin' my cash
All my life L-B-C, for my city I mash
All those OGs and BGs and wannabies and L-O-Cs
The only friends I got is my 2-1-3s
That's my nigga Snoop D Woop and my nigga N-A-T-E
I can't forget about my nigga H to the Deezy
Pressure and strikes
Don't wann take no lives
But these jaws, cracks and hood cracks
Will make you break bizacks
"Whussup homie, can I borrow some cash?"
Last week I agve you 500, so kiss my ass
I got a baby to feed
A familly to see through
And shake busta snitches tweekin' like you
Homies and friends that's what they for
Stayin' tight and money right
And bustin' with a 44.
[Chorus (x2)]

Friends

by Simon & Garfunkel

I hope the day will be a lighter highway
For friends are found on every road
Can you ever think of any better way
For the lost and weary travellers to go
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everything's all right
It seems to me a crime that we should age
These fragile times should never slip us by
A time you never can or shall erase
As friends together watch their childhood fly
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everything's all right
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then everything's all right

Bright light, almost blindin'
Black night still there shinin'
I can't stop, keep on climbin'
looking for what I knew
Had a friend, she once told me
You got love, you ain't lonely
Now she's gone and left me only
lookin' for what I knew
Ah-ahh, ah-ahh, ah-ah-ahh, ah-ahh
Mmm, I'm tellin' you now
the greatest thing you ever can do, now
is trade a smile with someone who's blue, now
It's very easy, just-a
Met a man on the roadside cryin'
Without a friend, there's no denyin'
you're incomplete, there'll be no findin'
lookin' for what you knew
So anytime somebody needs ya
don't let them down, although it grieves ya
Someday you'll need someone like they do
lookin' for what you knew
Ah-ahh, ah-ahh, ah-ah-ahh, ah-ahh
Mmm, mm, I'm tellin' you, now
the greatest thing you ever can do, now
is trade a smile with someone who's blue, now
It's very easy, just-a, oh, yeah
Ah, nah, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, yeah
I'm tellin' you, now
the greatest thing youever can do, now
is tradeasmile with someone who's blue, now
It'svery easy, i-it's very easy
It's very easy, it's easy, easy, yeah, yeah
I cannot sleep, cause the things you´ve said make me shake and shiver
It´s kind of cheap, like a tear-jerk dime-novel not to deliver
You and a friend pleased to let me know, you love each other so
Not a week after we´d been through
My heart was shakin, stomach´s aching
My last chance it was taken
Ref.: Can´t understand what you´ve meant, when you say we´ll be friends
Please don´t mind, I can´t find a reason to pretend
You took away the ground on which our love once stand (falsche Zeit - korregieren)
And still you want us to be friends
How should I feel, when I know in the end our lives will drift apart
And when we meet, someday I´m just another face in the dark
That´s the way the bad story goes
And the hard point we both know
Nothing will keep us together – so
Stop affirming or concerning for
We´ll never learn, what we´ve never been learning
Ref.: (1x)
And I can only play my part, say to myself: hold on to your heart
I can only play my role, never learning – no concerning –
We never – we never learn, we´ve never been learning
Ref.: (1x)

I need a hand, I need a hand
Can you understand, I got no plan
Lookin' for a new brochure, just starin' in the sand
In my defense, in my defense
I feel intense, it all makes no sense
I'm the one who runs in circles
Tell me how it went
I wanted you to make it slow
I wanna have a hand to hold
Now it's stuck in my throat
Wishin' that I'd blow
I try and try and get nowhere
I can't avoid and I can't stare
It's not my only thought
But I can't give it up
I've been away, I've been away
I'd like to stay, but can't get it straight
I saw you runnin' sideways so I hope it's not to late
I wanted you to bring me there
Drop me off, you know I'm scared
Not sure what I can bring, or if it means a thing
I wondered what I couldn't think
I was feelin' my heart sink
But couldn't shake it off
Mind was goin' soft
If you're here, if you're here
And I cruise in fear, then disappear
Even if you don't see me I promise I'll be near
I wanted you to lose control
I wanted you to hear my soul
And jumble things I've strained (?)
My mind goal wasn't reigned (?)
I broke it up to have some space
But nothin's fallin' into place
But I can't get upset
'cause I can't get it yet

So no one told you life was gonna be this way

Do you know where you goin to?
Do you like the things Warren G has showed you... you
Do you know where you goin to?
Do you like the things Warren G has showed you...you
G and Snoop, homeys from the jump and the get go
devoted and quoted back in 84
growin up in the LBC
platinum city, where the big gamers be
involved in everythang from Pop Warner
to whats poppin on every corner
find a skirt if you wanna
tryin to come up in this world
where everything is drama
Beverly was like my mama
W-A-double R-E-N
tryin to get in where I can fit in
catchin a bus with a homey I can trust
3 homeys from the hood straight kickin up dust
enjoyin my days and everythang is fine
15 years old Snoop d whoop on the grind
tryin to find ways to make it, dice shake it
young, havin fun, like me Snoop and Nate did
[Chorus]
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
I remember all the scams we been through, together
nobody does it better on which you do the weather
the days we used to call first year playin get like me
gettin in fo of zines, I loved em
Long Beach was the hometown
and every spot that we rocked, you know we got down
outside at the club just spittin raps
and every busta that ran up was gettin cracked
underground tapes used to be the claim to fame
Long Beach Was A Mutha was a classic mane
tellin tales about how we was strugglin
and surrounded wit tha homeys that was all clubbin
tryin to make it in this music
quick fast, quick cash, and hittin on the quick dash
we in this game to make hits
and make everybody respect the G-Funk click
[Chorus]
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We went from young G's
to sellin million overseas
rollin Dees
and makin money by the trees
to killer Bees, evading all enemies
catastrophies, young GFC's
we made it now, livin good wit no hassles
but still a lot of problems dealin wit shady acts doe
its all a part of makin hits doe
see our careers take off like a US missle
break out the crystal
I spitted it, and now its g funked out, transmitted it
so you can call it what you want
we still goin bring the funk
G's up put it down, and ya weed to float
[Chorus x3]

Pull up a chair friend
There ain't nobody here friend
But the people you need
Roll yourself a joint friend
Empty your head friend
Make yourself at home friend

Put your feet up on the fire
If it makes you feel much better
Have a glass of homegrown wine

Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year
But
I'll be there for you (when the rain starts to pour)
I'll be there for you (like I've been there before)
I'll be there for you (because you're there for me too)
-------That's the end of what they play on the show, the rest of the song as originally recorded continues------
You're still in bed at ten, but work began at eight
You burned your breakfast, so far things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees

Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
That we can call friends
Ohhhhhhh
[Goldie Loc]
Now all I gotta do is keep my head up
And walk a straight line when fake friends won't mind
But I'm kind-hearted
And don't like being stepped on
If I wasn't real, I wouldn't be in this position
Like that, dogg, I got a whole lot to say
I'm by myself with my rhymes when we kick it all day
Lil' Jay used to say I'd never be nobody
But you know what I never do?
Smoke it off like Gotti
Five million dollar hits puttin in saxophones
Tray Deee & Snoop, we sound good on this microphone
I never threaten nobody to make it happen
Let me show you how we eat a full meal off this rappin'
But if I had a chance to give it back
I'd give it to the ones who helped me do that
Do that, straight from the heart
Eastside till I die
We ain't no contract friends, we doggs for life
[Tray Deee]
It's a trip how we Crip
Suppose the enemies still
With both sides ride causing plenty of tears
Insane's and 20's both from the same city
A bunch of down niggas and it ain't that many
Me, C, and the G can think back to the start
Homies chillin', getting high, shooting craps in the park
And having a heart
To get 'em up if it was beef
Head up like G's, take it out in the street
Hold ya own was the code that I growed to view
So I fucked with and stuck with a chosen few
But Snoop Dogg, you can call me, whatever the case
And homie that ain't nothing that the set could erase
You put me with the homie, Goldie, though we never had spoke
A Insane with a 20, now we hell of a close
And y'all kids, my kids, so we family now
Cause I could never see you doing bad without
And that's real
[Kokane]
Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
That we can call friends...

Till then and they wanted ta see tha violence
Droppin', gettin' locked and get in stayed in asylum
Livin' life on under tha hill. Release that trail
and one ah my niggaz been in celled, because I stay high

don't make no mistake, or don't faim his spray
Anticipation ta get you sprayed, but what if he hesitate?
Make my day. They lay, any nigga they would
It be easy ta pick up ah tune. When do we end?
Will they come get this shit done, and over ah partner

Betta watch yo' back, otha people you think are yo' homiez

So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your jobs a joke

Your love life's D.O.A.

And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
Or even your year
But...

When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before

Cause you're there for me too

And work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast
So far things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
Oh but she didn't tell you when the world has brought
You down to your knees that
[Chorus]
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
Cause you're there for me too
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you, yeah
It's like you're always stuck in second gear
And it hasn't been your day, your week, your month
Or even your year
[Chorus]
I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
Cause you're there for me too
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
I'll be there for you
Cause you're there for me too

Of all life's treasuries
one is most preciously
kept in my heart
and that's the loyalty of friends
and family gathered 'round
and making joyous sounds
familiar voices warm the heart
I find myself alone and feelin' blue
then I know what to do
I phone my friends in melancholy
and then sometimes I'm filled with doubt
something will chase it out
it's having friends, their faith will win it out
the problems that we face
are easier to take when you have friends
to share the ways and how you knew
that they will share the load
and you can always go by day or night
you know that you're with folk, of course
I know that some of you
can't think of any who
you might call friend
but listen and I'll tell you that
you've heard it said before
and of it's truth i'm more
convinced that you have friends just be one
no thing comes even close
to what we treasure most
then to be with friends

I likes to eat my friends
And make no bones about it
I likes to eat my friends
I couldn’t do without it
Ain’t a man or poet, friend
I know just how you’ll taste
Your limbs go sliding down my throat
And never go to waste
Your death of course, will sadden me
Until I grok your essence
I know your life was not in vain
When digestion is commencing
Consider this a celebration
And the deepest pact of friends
And I hope that you will dine on me
When I come to an end
Even friends may come to you
With a new found revelation
But think of it as life renewed
And not their termination
To know you is to eat you,
Should be the code of lovers
Death brings the highest act of love
Preserved for one another
People say that what you are
Is only what you eat
And my friends become a part of me
Oh it’s then that life’s complete
To know you is to eat you
The act of love supreme
Each one of us inside himself
Can appetise the dream

As pretty as a song
A song could ever be
Like Christmas on a river
Without a boat or Christmas tree
This afternoon with you was something like a letter
The kind that someone writes but never sends
And when you look at me like that
I know that someday it's gonna end
And when you go
I bet you miss your friends
As angry as a breeze
Tugging hard upon the sails
I've been moving through these streets forever
From Baltimore to Amsterdam
These things inside me, they repeat like broken records
Spinning pretty somethings behind my eyes
And when I can't look at you
I can paint your picture perfectly in my mind
And when I get old
I'm gonna miss you all the time
That wind up in the trees
Scattering bluebirds all over the place
Shuffling children and piles of leaves
I wish I was the wind, I'd touch your face
This afternoon with you was something like a letter
The kind that someone writes but never sends
And when your good to me
It makes me blue because someday it's gonna end
And when we pass on
I bet you miss your friends
Bet you miss your friends
I bet you miss your friends

Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
[Snoop Doggy Dogg]
Every since I could remember
I had friends I could depend on
Clothes to lend 'em
money to spend 'em
But as time went by
My life got a little strange
And the rules of the game seem to change
Trust, honesty and devotion
And money, money, money is the poison potion
There's no way that I can even say
That this game has been good to me
Or even bad to me it had to be
Cause tragically the way this shit
Cracked off for Doggy Dogg was magically
And now I'm gettin' everything I'm supposed to get
But my friendship with niggaz always ends up as bulshit
I listen to my momma though
She always tried to prepare me
Byt how could she do what I
I mean I'm do or die
But my life on the streets
That shit is suicide
So to cope I got a dogg and a locc
And keep my heat close in case these jokes go for broke
I'm mashin' with the click 2-1-3 that is
They my homeboys ever since kids-
Real friends to the end
[Chorus (Nate Dogg):]
Hangin' out with my homies and I'm feelin' just fine
I've been ponderin' lately
A lot of different things on my mind
It seems lately my friends list
Done took a slight decline
And if you wanna know the trith man, man
Them wasn't no friends of mine
[Warren G]
You jackin' me up, you takin' my cash
All my life L-B-C, for my city I mash
All those OGs and BGs and wannabies and L-O-Cs
The only friends I got is my 2-1-3s
That's my nigga Snoop D Woop and my nigga N-A-T-E
I can't forget about my nigga H to the Deezy
Pressure and strikes
Don't wann take no lives
But these jaws, cracks and hood cracks
Will make you break bizacks
Whussup homie, can I borrow some cash?
Last week I agve you 500, so kiss my ass
I got a baby to feed
A familly to see through
And shake busta snitches tweekin' like you
Homies and friends that's what they for
Stayin' tight and money right
And bustin' with a 44.
[Chorus (x2)]

Born for prime star

Yeah, scream out

You 'bout to say to yourself, what what
Say one, then some
The paper, can't understand, uh
One degree says, she can't understand
Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed
The thing that everone thought
Bought the Mr. Lover some
[Sandra "Pepa" Denton:]
Queen, honey bee wannabes
They want to be in front of me
But it ain't no run in me
That's word to my son and me
Now you wanna be family cuz you see the Grammies (Yeah)
Playin' me close, ask me where's my man, how's my man
Sandy be damned be, I keeps the cheese handy
Got the trap for you rats come strapped with the gammy
Jealousy be swellin' me, word
So I had to charge 'em at will
And leave a bill, like Bellamy
What are you tellin' me
Don't let me catch a felony
People trip out, bring out the hell in me
But I stay paid in full, faithful, and always grateful
Stay on guard, praise God, pity the hateful
[Mad Lion:]
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
Why you gotta be like that, uh
Only one-ninety people stepped back, uh
[Sandra "Pepa" Denton:]
Friends to the end for the ends did ya favors
Damn, why you wanna stick me for my papers
[Cheryl "Salt" James:]
Would have gave you the world now you can't catch a crumb
How you bum-bum-bitty come so dumb-dumb
Remember when you was all busted, broke down, beat up
Even kept you as a friend when you stole to stay steed-up
Wanna be down with my business, we meet up
Schemin' like a demon on the couch with your feet up
Playin' like a summer may stain by far
Got mad I had the juice so you tried to take the jar
I feel for you, yes, I do
No fame, no crew, now what you gon' do, Boo
He say, she say, we say, why say
The fly-ways my way
The try fray, hit the highway
[Mad Lion:]
Say one, then some
The paper, can't understand, uh
One degree says, she can't understand
Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed
The thing that everone thought
Bought the Mr. Lover some
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
[Queen Latifah:]
You smile in my face but all the while you wanna take my place
Put it on a paper chase and you can't keep my pace
You're jealous cuz I'm this shit and you ain't
Far as I'm concerned, I don't know you from a can of paint (Hey yo, who you)
No time to worry about who likes me, who didn't invite me
Behind my back callin' me shysty, that don't excite me
Backstabbers keepin' that he said, she said runnin'
Always in my business, I leave when I see you comin' (Yo, I'm out)
See you got the game twisted, I could care less
My house is bought and paid for, your rent's due, you're stressed
Nevertheless, you wanna keep some drama on blast
But I don't worry cuz I'm quick to come and check that ass
[Mad Lion:]
They're spine behind your face
But meantime, they wanna take your place
Those back-stabbers, hey, back-stabbers
[Sandra "Pepa" Denton & Cheryl "Salt" James:]
Check it, everybody sees you as preemy and teeny
You see me in 3-D, and need me like a genie
All your wishes are washed up like lock up
We need to write a book called Shit That Botched Up
One thing that Sandi can't understand
The all the world jet but see a plentiful of hands
So tell me, how can we shake 'em, firmly you break 'em
Get 'em hot, and bake 'em, run to miss 'em, I may say
Chase me cuz I don't chase them, chill, in fact
Like friends we are family with a bill attatched
Pep's that green-eyed monster, make them ill and that
Well if envy ever tempt me, Salt steer me back
[Mad Lion:]
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
Never never, never should you get paper
Think you better, better, get up, get up this place
Some new, shit, on my tounge and lip
Only one time, then, I will be done with it, go
Some will get with it, some will get wrecked with it
Some will host and they claim, that they say, we did
You faced it and if you why, sack and I messed with
His name was ah-uh-huh-uh-huh, forget this shit
Mad Lion is sick
No bed could get up in this re-lyrical
Full of new time threat, hey
I got my rhymes and the national anthem
Got more rhymes than either Oleen or Tonet
Got more rhymes than they made us sweat
Of a nigga, of a crooked waitin' for the damn check, uh
But let's not forget the, back-biters is the name of this set, uh
All the people, and we know you bite mine
Soldier people shall shine
Yo' come in the next track, up this

Night, darkness of night
I've got a friend I'm turning to
Stay beside me now
Though night and day might slip away
Always with you, there I will be
Where you might go, I'll be there too
I have in you such a good friend
I have in you such a good friend
Days, numbers of days
Giving us now, love in this day
Life, all of my life
I've got a friend I'm turning to
Always with you, there I will be
Where you might go, I'll be there, too
I have in you such a good friend
Friend like as you, there is no end
Take it up or leave it
I'm not gonna change a bit
If it means heartache
Then leave it out for your sake
I tried and I try tried
To take care of my insides
Nobody's perfect so leave me if you object
I want those who get to know me
To become admirers or my enemies....
When you're a pirouetting, highkicking
Thighslapping cruiser
When you're a hipgrinding spellbinding
Clean cut seducer
You have to be careful so people take note
I take it serious, but I still like a joke
I want those who get to know me
To become admirers or my enemies
Keep your philosophy
It doesn't apply to me
If it means heartache
Then leave it out for your sake
I tried and I try tried
But still you say that I lied
Nobody's perfect so leave me if you object
