Composição: Joan Jett e Kenny Laguna
When you were down they were never there
When you're all alone you really get to learn
If you get back up they gonna come around
All the sycophants they love to make romance
To the ugly sound of 'em tellin you what you
Wanna hear and you pretend
Cuz they all agree you're supposed to have a better life
But youre feelin' worse
An they build you up 'till you fool yourself that you're
Something else and its like a curse 'cause
You cant live up to what they made of you
An they tell you that you're losin friends
Losin' friends, losin' friends
Ya got nothing to lose
Ya don't lose when you lose fake friends
Ya go an tell em you were king of the hill
When ya need a hand - that was yesterday
Ya see em laugh while you're on your knees
An it breaks your heart 'cuz ya gave so much
An ya can't believe that ya hit the ground and
Ya notice ya been losin' friends
Losin' friends, losi' friends
Ya got nothin to lose
Ya don't lose when you lose fake friends
