Another red letter day
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating
The other half ran away
Taking all the **** and leaving you with the lumber
Got a pain in the chest Doctors on strike what you need is a rest
It’s not easy love, but you’ve got friends you can trust

Chorus:
Friends will be friends
When you’re in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you’re through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand ‘cause friends will be friends
Right till the end

Now it’s a beautiful day The postman delivered a letter from your lover
Only a phone call away You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number
As a matter of fact You’re getting used to life without him in your way
It’s so easy now, ‘cause you got friends you can trust

Chorus

It’s so easy now, ‘cause you got friends you can trust

Friends will be friends
When you’re in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you’re through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand, friends will be friends
Right till the end
