Lyrics Frenemy - Steve Poltz

She was into Kierkegaard
And I was sitting in her yard
And we were talking all about a leap of faith

She put on some Shostakovich
But her humming was so out of pitch
Just like a piece of metal on a spinning lathe

I told her, "I′d always be a friend"
She told me, "She'd love me ′til the end"

Frenemy
Enemy
You're a friend of me
'Til you set me free
Don′t ever let me be

I told her that I studied for it
But somehow I was unemployed
And that′s the reason that I started shooting dope

She told me that old Jean-Paul Sartre
Was like a piece of abstract art
A Marxist at the end of his philosopher's rope

I told her, "I′d always be a friend"
She told me, "She'd love me ′til the end"

Frenemy
Enemy
You're a friend of me
′Til you set me free
Don't ever let me be

She was prolific just like Sophocles
Comedic like Euripides
She kept me like a hobbit underneath her bed

She danced just like Baryshnikov
While holding a Kalashnikov
She fed my habit to me, I was almost dead

And I told her, "I'd always be a friend"
She told me, "She′d love me ′til the end"

Frenemy
Enemy
You're a friend of me
′Til you set me free
Don't ever let me be
