You said they laid out lots of c**e
But you don't know how much you did
Now you don't want me to go home
Because you're afraid you might get sick
It's like the bad news you accept
Just like the boy you'll go out and get
It's all the drunken promises
I'll be your friend, but you just haven't made me yet
So you come chasing after me
When I'm just barely out the door
Down in the belly of the beast
We waited with the passing drugs
Just like that train I've got to catch
Just like that song I can't finish
It's the mistake I won't regret
You'll be my friend, but I just haven't made you yet
You'll be my friend, but I just haven't made you
Now you talk when you're drunk
Like you're standing in front of a microphone
And each night it repeats
And you fall into me like a domino
And you talk when you're drunk
Like you're writing it out for an article
And you think that I lie when I tell you good-bye
And I'm going to go because I've got to go
But I guess it's a success
We're at our best when you're upset
I'll be your friend, you just haven't made me yet
But you don't know how much you did
Now you don't want me to go home
Because you're afraid you might get sick
It's like the bad news you accept
Just like the boy you'll go out and get
It's all the drunken promises
I'll be your friend, but you just haven't made me yet
So you come chasing after me
When I'm just barely out the door
Down in the belly of the beast
We waited with the passing drugs
Just like that train I've got to catch
Just like that song I can't finish
It's the mistake I won't regret
You'll be my friend, but I just haven't made you yet
You'll be my friend, but I just haven't made you
Now you talk when you're drunk
Like you're standing in front of a microphone
And each night it repeats
And you fall into me like a domino
And you talk when you're drunk
Like you're writing it out for an article
And you think that I lie when I tell you good-bye
And I'm going to go because I've got to go
But I guess it's a success
We're at our best when you're upset
I'll be your friend, you just haven't made me yet
