Don't feel so ashamed To have friends But now you only call me When you're feeling depressed When you feel happy I'm so far from your mind My patience is stretched My loyalty vexed You're losing all of your friends Hold on to your friends Hold on to your friends Resist or move on Be mad, be rash Smoke and explode Sell all of your clothes Just bear in mind: There just might come a time When you need some friends </poem> {{CommonSongSections | Artist = Morrissey | Song = {{#replace:{{#replace:{{PAGENAME}}| (single)|}}| (song)|}}}}
