The Unkempt Garment
One night you invited me out
To a party at your neighbor's place
It'd been five years and a life ago
Since I'd seen your face
Our histories behind us
I sought to make amends
I brought myself and a bottle of wine
With the intention to make friends
Two drinks in you start the set
The crowd begins to move
And just for a second I remember old sensations
With a bunch of kids that I once knew
But you've always been a fan of the double-entendre
So I'll give you this one for free
The story now is the story then
Propping up yourself by propping me
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends anyway
It all seemed like a great big joke
I mean how could I not laugh
This stupid little thing we wrote
Was now a staple of your act
All this time had passed
And yet nothing had changed
You're still a fan of the island girls
Still bubble-wrap your music with my name
I'm through with being civil
There's been plenty of time for that
Time that I was the poster-child
Time that I'm never ever getting back
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends anyway
How'd it feel if you wrote a song
And the person you wrote it about showed up to the show
Well now you know
How'd it feel if you were playing a song
And the person you helped write it with was standing right in front of you
Well I guess you'd know... Go
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
Yeah, I'd believe it too
To a party at your neighbor's place
It'd been five years and a life ago
Since I'd seen your face
Our histories behind us
I sought to make amends
I brought myself and a bottle of wine
With the intention to make friends
Two drinks in you start the set
The crowd begins to move
And just for a second I remember old sensations
With a bunch of kids that I once knew
But you've always been a fan of the double-entendre
So I'll give you this one for free
The story now is the story then
Propping up yourself by propping me
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends anyway
It all seemed like a great big joke
I mean how could I not laugh
This stupid little thing we wrote
Was now a staple of your act
All this time had passed

You're still a fan of the island girls

What are friends for
What are friends for
What are friends for

If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
If I got struck by lightning twice would it stop my heart
Yeah, I'd believe it too
