We Can’t Be Friends
pop, upbeat, shout, funkyLyrics
[intro]
Am I available?
I think I am.
Would I like to volunteer?
I guess I can.
It seems like fun
I’ll bring my van.
[Verse 1]
well There’s something goin’ down
A few miles south of town.
They’re recruitin’ all their friends
And buildin’ the suspense.
It’s a way to make some cash
With things from seasons past.
“Yeah, I’ve got some stuff to sell.
What’s that? You need some help?”
[Bridge]
This same will be a chance to me
To help my friends and maybe see
A bunch of moms enjoy themselves
By calmly shopping all the shelves.
[chorus]
Just between friends!
Come one and all
The cattle call
Goes out and brings them in.
It never ends!
It’s wall to wall
Each spring and fall
The nightmare never ends.
[verse 3]
They asked me if I’d help them
And how could I say no.
I really love to garage sale.
So, how bad could this go?
They prob’ly don’t need much help
An hour, maybe three.
Of course I’ll go and help them
And maybe shop for me.
[Bridge]
It seemed like it would be so fun
But my third shift is finally done.
My legs are sore. my feet are dead
I need some Advil for my head.
[Verse 4]
This place is like a circus
There’s women everywhere
They’re selling everything in sight.
Wait…is that underwear?
Where do these people come from?
And what’s all that crap there?
Are they selling it or buying it?
Man…I need to get some air.
[chorus]
Just between friends!
I want to run
I think I’m done
In tired and want some food.
It never ends!
But I won’t pout
I’ll just slip out
I don’t want to be rude.
Just between friends!
I changed my mind
Where can I find
Some clothes for boys size 8?
Let’s make amends!
I’m coming back
I had a snack
I guess I’ll be home late.
Just between friends!
Is Daylin here?
He came last year
He might be here to shop.
It never ends!
He may have been
But not again.
You people must be stopped.
