If you really want to be my friend Let me live it up Like I used to do If you really want to understand me There's some givin' up We got to do
I know everybody wants to be your man I don't want to tie you up Go ahead you're free And I never want to scar you with my brand We could live it up Just a you and me
If you really want to understand a man Let him off the lead sometimes Set him free If you really want to be my friend Give me the look of love Not jealousy
I know you think life is a thriller You play the vamp I play the killer Now baby whats the use of fighting By the last reel we'll be crying crying crying
Now if you really want to be my man Get your nails out of my back Stop using me You know
I really want to be your friend Just a little faith is all we need I don't want no dog eat dog world for you and me Get your nails out Stop bleedin' me You know
People tell me you were a vulture Say you're a sore in a cancer culture Aah but you got a little charm around you I'll be there when they finally hound ya hound ya Oooh yeah mmmmmmmmmmm
And I really want to understand you baby I, I, yea I wanna try to give you a helping hand Yes I do Wah yea Wah yea I wanna push you when you're up And pull you when you're down I tell you something That love, that love can't thrive on jealousy Wah no Wah no And I really try to understand you baby Yes I do Cause understanding is something everybody needs Wah yea I really want to be your friend And I love ya I love ya yes I do
