f r i e n d s Lyrics

I'm like a candle in the wind trying not to blow away

On an alcoholic binge in the middle of the day

Bartender I need something that can save my soul

'Cause these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And I ain't sold nothing, but these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And you should know something, that these devils I befriended got a hold of me

Give me something that would drive you crazy

Like a couple rabid dogs and a Bayou baby, I said

The federales want to highway rob me

Just to make me do the things they know that God won't make me, I mean

I put the cigarettes down, but if you got one I'm game

Just got back from my hometown, it doesn't quite feel the same

Same people around, can't figure out why it's strange

I'll take another three rounds and someone else I can blame

Loose cannon, it's a matter of time

Still burning it's a matter of mind over matter

And I know not too many understand

I got a purpose not a plan

I'm like a candle in the wind trying not to blow away

On an alcoholic binge in the middle of the day

Bartender I need something that can save my soul

'Cause these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And I ain't sold nothing, but these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And you should know something, that these devils I befriended got a hold of me

I'm off an upper and a downer and a couple in betweeners

In my second favorite suit because the good one's at the cleaners

Ain't got no felonies but got a couple misdemeanors

That I caught in '96 because I didn't use a blinker

I don't need too much to be whatever I decide

I order food in French and hate whatever's on the side

I panic when my moral compass centers on my pride

And tip the Uber driver more than I paid for the ride I'ma

Loose cannon, it's a matter of time

Still burning it's a matter of mind over matter

And I know not too many understand

I got a purpose not a plan

I'm like a candle in the wind trying not to blow away

On an alcoholic binge in the middle of the day

Bartender I need something that can save my soul

'Cause these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And I ain't sold nothing, but these devils I befriended got a hold of me

And you should know something, that these devils I befriended got a hold of me
