Lyrics Herbert Grönemeyer

Herbert Grönemeyer

All Your Good Friends

Who will lend you ready cash?

all your old friends

who will want it back like that?

all your good friends

who will keep your secrets safe

put all of their problems on your plate?

all your good friends

Who can see the real you?

all your old friends

who sticks their oar in everything you do?

all your good friends

Who helps you fill the pool coupons in

but then won't pay you when you win?

all good friends do

your good old friends do

They're always there to count on

they'd do anything for you

oh, if only there were time

you'd surely miss them

they talk without a pause for breath

with all the latest gossip

until your ears go deaf

Who has always believed in you?

all your good friends

they never said, they just thought you knew...

all your good friends

They've known you since you were knee-high

as they tell every passer-by...

all your friends here, your good old friends here

When you're past the worst of it

you only want to life it up a bit -

they come to you then with deals to sign

because you all have a real good time

oh, they're always at the door

oh, they're always going to let you know the score

oh, you and your girlfriend just can't be alone

they're at the entry-phone !
