Lyrics
My friends and Me
Shelly listens to Elvis
Joseph loves the Soft Machine
John gave his ears to the early Beatles
when Paul always talked to the queen.
Martha stands on the corner
waiting for her train to come
and I?m in there somewhere in the middle
somehow I just don?t understand.
My friends and me friends
friends and me friends and me.
My friends and me friends
friends and me friends and me
Pete went off to California
painting pictures in the sun.
Michael is still looking for satisfaction
is he going to find it with some one?
Terry tried but didn't make it
just dropped right out of sight
and I?m in there somewhere in the middle
somehow I just don?t understand.
My friends and me friends,
friends and me friends and me.
My friends and me friends
friends and me friends and me
James P burned out at art school
shooting up behind the gym
dyed his hair like Ziggi Stardust
and that?s the last I saw of him.
Sure we?ve all had our share of fuck ups
and I?m amazed how some of us pulled through
and were right here somewhere in the middle
sometime we just don?t understand
My friends and me friends,
friends and me friends and me.
My friends and me friends
friends and me friends and me
