Friends

I wanna be your friend

Can i be your friend?

I wanna be your friend

Can i be your friend?



I could go into your garden

Serve you skin and bone

I could do many manic things

I wouldn't do alone



And as my mother used to say

Get out of the house and learn to play

Join in the circle and meet someone

Get out of the house

I've a home to run



A taste of honey

A touch of warmth

We'll learn to fend and find our favourite haunt

We won't swap gossip

We won't cause hate

We'll take the morning to just contemplate

Where will i be hiding six years from now?

A job in the city?

(or a child's know-how)

Know how to win favours quite unconsciously

Will this be heroic, or the end of me?



I wanna be your friend

Can i be your friend?

I wanna be your friend

Can i be your friend?

I could talk to all the portraits hanging in the hall

But i wanna be your friend

Or nothing at all
