"Keep Some Steady Friends Around" lyrics

Smog Lyrics

"Keep Some Steady Friends Around"

Keep some steady friends around
Best thing you can do
Keep some steady friends around
Best thing for you
Find a little place to go
When you want to get away
Find a little place to go
When you have to get away

But don't stay away too long
Because we love you too much
But don't stay away so long
Because we love you so much

To build your own house
Might be the best
Following your own design
Like some kind of God
With a fence all around
A fence all around

But don't forget to put in a gate
Don't forget to put in a gate
So you can have some steady friends come around
You can have some steady friends come around

Someone asked me just the other day
About souls and such
And if I believed in Judgement day
