Let's be friends Is a word we use everyday

Most the time we use it in the wrong way

Now you can look the word up, again and again

But the dictionary doesn't know the meaning of friends

And if you ask me, you know, I couldn't be much help

Because a friend's somebody you judge for yourself

Some are ok, and they treat you real cool

But some mistake your kindness for bein' a fool

We like to be with some, because they're funny

Others come around when they need some money

Some you grew up with, around the way

And you're still real close to this very day

Homeboys through the summer, winter, spring and fall

And then there's some we wish we never knew at all

And this list goes on, again and again

But these are the people that we call friends

When we first went out together, we barely knew each other

We had no intentions, on becoming lovers

But in no time at all, you became my girl

Me and you, one on one, against the world

Talkin on the telephone for hours at a time

Or else I was at your house, or you was at mine

And then came the arguments and all kinds of problems

Besides making love, we had nothing in common

It could've lasted longer because it started out strong

But I guess we went about the whole thing wrong

'Cause out of nowhere it just came to an end

Because we became lovers before we were friends

Let's be friends

You say you and your girlfriend were so tight

You took her out with you and your guy one night

She even had a set of keys to your home

And you shared mostly everything you owned

But as she shook your hand, she stole your man

And it was done so sweet, it had to be a plan

Couldn't trust her with cheese, let alone your keys

With friends like that you don't need enemies

You wonder how long it was all going on

And you’re still not sure if you’re glad he’s gone

You say, well if she took him he was never mine

But deep inside you know that's just another lie

And now you're kinda cold toward people you meet

'Cause of something that was done to you by some creep

But nevertheless, I'll say it again

That these are the people that we call friends
