English

Hey, you can stop pretending to put friendship first, oh my friend
That won’t last, oh my friend
Yeah, you’re proud of your boyfriend, let us meet him once
And then save the rest for him

Oh yeah, when we were all single, we all hung out together
And talked about our friendship until dawn
But when one or two girls began to get boyfriends
They put them first

Friends are friends
If we’re distant enough to worry about what each other thinks
Then there’s no point

Let’s talk again soon
Yeah, we’ll all be able to meet up
And have fun together soon

I want us to be the kind of friends
Who don’t have to worry about what each other thinks

Yeah, if you think he’s going to dump you, tell us right away, oh my friend
We’ll let you rant, oh my friend
But we won’t get in the middle or do any silly butting in like that
It’ll just make it more complicated

Of course, if you break up, we’ll all cook you something
And turn it into a funny story
Before you know it, your wounds will heal
And you’ll be able to join in the jokes

Friends are friends
We can always go back to our previous position
That’s what friendship is

Still, let’s have lunch
Yeah, just one day a year will do
And tell each other what’s been going on

I wanna get together with you guys
You can cancel at the last minute if you want
