"Best Friend" lyrics

"Best Friend"

Tail wagging for the fat and burnt ends
Why Sam? What happened?
You back-stabbing, two-timing, snake-eyed con-man
You said you were my best friend

Last laughing with a strong tailwind
Five miles gone before you noticed
Roll in the blood of a turtle dove
Make my home in the snowdrifts
You said you were my best friend

Two years' time
The ink runs down the missing signs
Throw my bone in the garbage
I'll be chasing the sun, the moon better run
And pay no mind to the harvest
You said you were my best friend
