Evil Friends
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your mama's got nothing on me
Your daddy's got nothing on me
And the world that sleeps in it's lunacy
It's got nothing on me
No stars got nothing on me
Your sun's got nothing on me
And the fool who sees it's the thief that needs
Has got nothing on me
You know its not because the light here gets brighter
And its not that I'm evil
I got a friend in the devil
But I can't even be your friend
I can't even be your friend
I can't even be your friend
I can get so wound up
But I feel alright
And if I get some rest
Yeah, that'd be nice
When I shouldn't do it, I still do it
What you think's got nothing to do with this
Before you were born, I was already sinning
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When I get too worked up
Well, I work it out
And if I get too down
I just shout it out
I may not have it all, but the rest will do
And it's nothing against all I do with you
Before you were born, I was already sinning
Its not because the light here is brighter
And its not that I'm evil, I just don't like to pretend
That I could ever be your friend
If you don't listen so good
I can hum it out
Na na na na na na na na
I know I shouldn't do it
I just do it
And what ya think's got nothing to do with it
Before you were born, I was already sinning
Its not because the light here is brighter
And its not that I'm evil
I just don't like to pretend
I could ever be your friend
I could never be your friend
I never needed a friend
I don't wanna be friends
You'll never find a friend like me
