the times i need you

ooh this life can surely kick your ass

people smile and say this too shall pass

brother they may never care

but you were always there

all the times i needed you

yes you were there but where was i

letting honest comfort pass me by

i'd be in free fall

but too afraid to call

all the times i needed you

friendship

sitting like a dog down at your feet

kick it

ignore it

but it will still be there!

ooh my ego lies just like a song

it says keep it to yourself

and you'll look strong

all that time-honored crap

just helped me lose my map

all the times i needed you

friendship

sitting like a dog down at your feet

kick it

ignore it

but it follows you everywhere

i could be a jerk sometimes

you could be a jerk sometimes

it's all a matter of degrees!

ooh now i look back and there we are

(two scared shaggy-haired

mis-paired lunatics)

pooling all our cash to buy a star

if i had my own way

i'd let you know today

that i always needed you

all the times i needed you
