What Are Friends For Lyrics

Guess what?
They found out about me, You can’t count on me- I hate to be wrong
Guess what?
All those things I said- it wasn’t what I meant, I hate to lead you on

I’ve got a lot of bad things I wish that I had never done ‘cause they’re coming back, coming back to me now
And I’ve got a lot of bad things I wish that I had never done ‘cause they’re coming back, coming back to me now
Oh yeah- you’re not my friend, you don’t know me and I, I don’t care about you
I lied,
and that’s the awful truth. Guess it was no use- I hate to be wrong
I lied,
the things inside your head, wishin I was dead- ‘cause I did you wrong

I’ve got a lot of bad things I wish that I had never done ‘cause they’re coming back, coming back to me now
And don’t think I’ll feel guilty or that I’ll apologize ‘cause I got my way, and that means I was right
Oh yeah- I’m not your friend, you don’t know me, and I, I don’t care about….you.
Repeat
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
I’ve got a lot of bad things I guess that I should never have done ‘cause they’re coming back, coming back to me now
And don’t think I’ll feel guilty or that I’ll apologize ‘cause I got my way and that means I was right
Oh yeah, I’m not your friend, you don’t know me and I, I don’t, I don’t care about you.

How has no one commented on this song!? It rawks!! one of those songs i shove on when i feel like the whole world hates me and i have no friends. always works! everything mentioned in the song all comes with being a normal human being- they're saying "fuck it! i'm normal too!"

This is my favourite song on Cheer Up. I love the lyrics too because it's interesting to listen to someone who's mature enough to admit their faults and mistakes, as opposed to emo bands who sing about why all their problems are the fault of other people, CONSTANTLY.

It's obviously about him cheating on his girlfriend and feeling bad about it. And, thinking about it makes him think about the other things he's done wrong.

This reminds me of when I used to screw around with this guy, I was basically a tease. I didn't like him at all, he annoyed me. I did it because I could. Then he started stalking me...

this is a great rbf song. i always want to just yell at some people the line "I’m not your friend, you don’t know me and I don’t, I don’t care about you." that would get some people to leave me alone
