All Your Good Friends

who will lend you ready cash? 
all your old friends 
who will want it back like that? 
all your good friends 
who will keep your secrets safe 
put all of their problems on your plate? 
all your good friends 

who can see the real you? 
all your old friends 
who sticks their oar in everything you do? 
all your good friends 

who helps you fill the pool coupons in 
but then won't pay you when you win? 
all good friends do 
your good old friends do 

they're always there to count on 
they'd do anything for you 
oh, if only there were time 
you'd surely miss them 
they talk without a pause for breath 
with all the latest gossip 
until your ears go deaf 

who has always believed in you? 
all your good friends 
they never said, they just thought you knew... 
all your good friends 

they've known you since you were knee-high 
as they tell every passer-by... 
all your friends here, your good old friends here 

when you're past the worst of it 
you only want to life it up a bit - 
they come to you then with deals to sign 
because you all have a real good time 
oh, they're always at the door 
oh, they're always going to let you know the score 
oh, you and your girlfriend just can't be alone 
they're at the entry-phone !
