|A bond of trust has been abused
Something of value may be lost
Give up your job
Squander your cash
Be rash
Just hold on to your friends
 
There are more than enough
To fight and oppose
Why waste good time
Fighting the people you like
Who will fall defending your name?
Don't feel so ashamed
To have friends
 
But now you only call me
When you're feeling depressed
When you feel happy
I'm so far from your mind
My patience is stretched
My loyalty vexed
You're losing all of your friends
 
Hold on to your friends
Hold on to your friends
Resist or move on
Be mad, be rash
Smoke and explode
Sell all of your clothes
Just bear in mind:
There just might come a time
When you need some friends

Lyrics

A bond of trust has been abused

Something of value may be lost Give up your job Squander your cash Be rash Just hold on to your friends

There are more than enough To fight and oppose Why waste good time Fighting the people you like Who will fall defending your name? Don't feel so ashamed To have friends

But now you only call me When you're feeling depressed When you feel happy I'm so far from your mind My patience is stretched My loyalty vexed You're losing all of your friends

Hold on to your friends Hold on to your friends Resist or move on Be mad, be rash Smoke and explode Sell all of your clothes Just bear in mind: There just might come a time When you need some friends
