If You Really Want To Be My Friend |
| If you really want to be my friend |
| Let me live it up like I used to do If you really want to understand me There’s some giving up we got to do |
| I know ev’rybody wants to be your man |
| I don’t want to tie you up, go ahead, you’re free |
| And I never want to scar you with my brand |
| We could live it up, just a you and me If you really want to understand a man |
| Let him off the lead sometimes, set him free |
| If you really, really want to be my friend |
| Give me the look of love, not jealousy |
| I know you think that life is a thriller |
| You play the vamp, I play the killer |
| Now baby, what’s the use of fighting? |
| By the last reel we’ll be cryin' cryin', cryin |
| If you really want to be my man |
| Get your nails out of my back |
| Stop using me You know I really, really want to be your friend |
| But just a little faith is all we need |
| I don’t want no dog eat dog world for you and me Get your nails out, stop bleeding me You know, people tell me you are a vulture |
| Say you’re a sore in a cancer culture |
| Ay, but you got a little charm around you |
| I’ll be there when they finally hound you |
| Hound you, hound you |
| If you really want to be my friend |
| And I really want to understand you baby |
| If you really want to be my friend |
| If you really want to understand me I really want to be your man |
| I want to try to give you a helping hand |
| I really want to be your friend |
| I want to push you when you’re up And pull you when you’re down |
| If you really want you to understand me |
| I’ll tell you something, that love can’t thrive on jealousy |
| I really want to understand you |
| I really want to be your man |
| 'Cause understanding is something ev’rybody needs |
| I really want to be your friend |
| And I love you, love you, yes, I do |
