"Better Friends" lyrics

"Better Friends"

The bar is chugging along
The band is strumming on strong
Nothing's gonna keep me from
Wishing I was dead or young

Where have all the pretty girls gone?
Where they're off to, no one knows
Where they're off to, no one goes
With their better friends I suppose

Where do you go when the night's at its bitter end?
Are these one of the times that you wish that you had better friends?
If it takes a lifetime, I will wait one and a day
To have some better friends, until the bitter end they'd stay

The crowd is moving the ground
In a sweaty room way uptown
The bathroom sinks, a holy thing
Everyone's gathering around
Am I a foreigner, alien freak?
'Cause I don't fit in this week
Fads that change are funny things
I just need friends that keep

Where do you go when the night's at its bitter end?
Are these one of the times that you wish that you had better friends?
And if it takes a lifetime, I will wait one and a day
To have some better friends, until the bitter end they'd stay

The bar is moving along
The band is strumming on strong
I'll sing every word wrong
Where have all the pretty girls gone?
