Friendzy (2013 Remastered Version)

You were my friend, my only friend
Like all good things, it came to an end
But every time I hear your name
It makes me think who was to blame
Perhaps I tried too hard to please
And you got tired and tried to squeeze
Me out your life, it seemed that way
One thing I've known, it's hard to stay
In love that way
You were my friend and you pushed me aside
Just like a dog who's gone wild
You threw me out in the cold outside
It don't make sense to a man who's tried
To treat you right, tried not to be unkind
But every day I used to find
You further away, there had to come a time
When you would say, "Look my way
I've got to leave this place"
There's just two ways to live your life
You either give or you take the strife
If you feel good when you're being nice
Then don't feel bad when you pay the price
You'll be put down, thrown onto the ground
And then picked up when your friends are found
They need your help which you're sure to give
And you can't stop 'cause you like to live
In love that way
You were my friend and you pushed me aside
Just like a dog who's gone wild
You threw me out in the cold outside
It don't make sense to a man who's tried
To treat you right, tried not to be unkind
But every day I used to find
You further away, there had to come a time
When you would say, "Look my way
I've got to leave this place"
Yeah, it's a bad old business
When you can't be nice
When people take advantage
Screw you tight
Just because you think
The nice way is right
They screw you up
Yeah, screw you up
Now I've been told that I must harden up
Now I've been told that I must harden up
Or they'll burn my bridges
Cut my goose
I'll be that sucker
That everybody used
I've had enough
Yeah, I've had enough
Listen
Yeah, it's a bad old business
When you can't be nice
It's a bad old business
When you can't be nice
When people take advantage
And screw you tight
Just because
You think the nice way is right
Screw you up, right tight
