| [Intro: All] What, what about your friends? What about What about your friends? What about your What about your What about your [Verse 1: T-Boz] Every now and then, I get a little crazy That's not the way it's supposed to be Sometimes my vision is a little hazy I can't tell who I should trust or just who I let trust me, yeah People try to say I act a little funny But that's just a figure of speech to me They tell me I changed because I got money But if you were there before, then you're still down with me, yeah [Chorus: All] What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? What about your friends? Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? Or will they turn their backs on you? [Refrain: Left Eye] Well, is it me, or can it be I'm a little too Friendly so to speak hypothetically say? I supply creativity to what others Must take as a form of self-hate Only to make an enemy Which results in unfortunate destiny They dog me out then be next to me Just 'cause I am what some choose to envy [Verse 2: T-Boz & Chilli] Every now and then, I get a little easy I let a lot of people depend on me I never thought they would ever deceive me Don't you know when times got rough I was standing on my own I'll never let another get that close to me You see, I've grown a lot smarter now Sometimes you have to choose and then you'll see If your friend is true, they'll be there with you Through the thick and thin [Chorus: All] What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? (Whoa) What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Are they gonna be low down (Be low down) Will they ever be around? (Be around) Or will they turn their backs on you? What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Will they stand their ground? (Stand their ground) Will they let you down again? (Oh) What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Are they gonna be low down (Be low down) Will they ever be around? (Be around) Or will they turn their backs on you? [Refrain: Left Eye] Yo, is it me? Here we go Or can it be I am a little too friendly? So to speak hypothetically say? I supply creativity to what others must take as a form of self-hate Only to make an enemy, which results in unfortunate destiny They dog me out then be next to me Just cause I am what some choose to envy [Chorus: All] What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Are they gonna be low down? Will they ever be around? (Be around) Or will they turn their backs on you? What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Are they gonna be low down? (Be low down) Will they ever be around? (Be around) Or will they turn their backs on you? [Bridge: Chilli] People say I act a little funny I wouldn't change not for no money I'll be a friend as long as you're a friend to me Yeah, yeah (What about your friends?) Even though I might be easy It don't give you no cause to deceive me It's not the way that I want my friends to ever be [Chorus: All] What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? Will they let you down again? What about your friends? (What about your friends?) Are they gonna be low down? (Be low down) Will they ever be around? (Will they ever be around) Or will they turn their backs on you? (Or will they turn their backs on you?) What about your friends? Will they stand their ground? (Stand their ground) Will they let you down again? What about your friends? |
