Friend you're looking for, you buck up in the right one
If it's a friend you're looking for, you buck up in the right one

In the heights of your greed for just simplicity
Every man turn their back on generosity
Lose control of their integrity
Sell their birthright plus their identity
Just to wear the crown of popularity
You must stand face to face with your whole calamity
I man get I man protection from His Majesty
The conquering lion of eternity

Too much of them just chatty chatty
Want a lump sum but to give them have none
Watch and peep carry go bring come
So me say tell me who's a friend and make me see if me have one
Tell me what's a friend and make me try find one
'Cause every fox have a hole, every bird have a nest
Like every madman have a place for rest
Everyone need a friend in time of distress
But no one no want a friend without consciousness

And your best friend could be your worst enemy
