[Verse 1]
I leech off you when things are good
I'm there to kick you when you're down
But when you need me I'm not there
You're such a bummer when you're down

[Chorus]
Let's see, what you need's a friend
They say that all you need's a friend
I know, what you need's a friend
Hello, I could use a

[Refrain]
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend

[Verse 2]
And of course we always share
So what I want you better give
And what is yours is mine
And what is mine you can't have

[Chorus]
Let's see, what you need's a friend
They say that all you need's a friend
I know, what you need's a friend
Hello, I could use a
[Refrain]
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend

[Bridge 1]
I'd do anything for you (Anything)
Just you ask me and it's done (Anything)
But everything has its price
You should have read the fine print, ha-ha!
Friend
Hi, friend
Friend
It's me friend!

[Refrain]
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend

[Bridge 2]
What you need's another friend
You never can have enough friends
Don't you wanna be my friend?
I'm so glad you're my friend, sucker
[Verse 3]
Of course you know who I am
And I'll never let you forget
You are stuck with me forever
Or until you have nothin' more to give

[Outro]
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend
What you need's a friend
All you need's a friend
