[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you, my friend, will see
You've got a friend in me

[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
Ben, you're always running here and there
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
If you ever looked behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go

[Bridge: Michael Jackson & The Jacksons]
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"

[Verse 3: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
Ben, most people would turn you away (Turn you away)
I don't listen to a word they say (A word they say)
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben, yeah yeah
[Outro: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
Like Ben (Like Ben)
Like Ben
