You're a friend to me
you don't show your teeth when no one shows you respect
in your house a tree
i wreckon this is a wreck
now your human face asking me home
such a sight for my sore eyes
no bitter taste left on my tongue
keep like this you'll be fit for the flies.
it's a cheap trick
but you got some sleeves
now don't you hope
you went out with a last kick
did you cross your t's or did you run out of ink?
now your loudest name fresh on my tongue
lost in leaves
you slept in your coat
I've never seen you so shy
just for tonight but
Chorus:
hey radley don't be so swell
done before you started maybe you tried to tell me
you don't have to worry and I'm too old to try
you dont have to treat me
but just keep me right.
(repeat chorus)
