Best Friends Lyrics by Dr Syntax

The Tonic - EP

2016

[Intro]
We've had
Our Ups and downs
But its good to know
You’re a friend of mine

You might think you've got some good friends
They've got nothing on my friends
They’re probably trying to rob you right now
Do you even know where they are?
I don't think so
Let me tell you about my friends though

[Verse 1]
Let me tell you why my mate's better than your mate
He's like the unofficial rodey on my tour dates
He always sells my t-shirts and my CDs
And even the prettiest girl wouldn't get a freebie

I didn't tell him to, he does it off his own back
Walking up to anyone, that dude's got some gonads
I feel guilty when he's grinding all night for nothing
He’s like "don’t worry mate, just buy me a pint or something"

And if his wife's got a friend who looks ripe for crushing
Then his advice is "meet Benny, he’s nice, you'll love him"
He's the type of guy you'll never find by the dozen
I get the overwhelming sense that it’s right to trust him

Cause he's my don, my homie, my brosef
He's the number one, the only, the dopest
As long I can fold a roll of notes he won't be dolers
As long as there's a sofa in my home, he won't be homeless

[Chorus]
Let's hear for you best friends, your best, best, best friends
Let's, let's hear for you best friends, just for you best, best friends
Let's hear for you best friends, let's hear it for your friends
Let's hear for you best friends, Let's, let's hear for you best friends

[Verse 2]
Like, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's like, like Doc Sinners and that man Pete innit
Like on a best friend 'ting bruv'
You get me?
Don't f*** about cuz', it's standard

Best friends mate
What you know about them?
Life ain't right without them

Best friends from the ends? Oh, yes we are
Sharing sweeties and ciggies and even a car
Cause there is nowt wrong with [?] up your mates, its true
That's the reason we bring these songs to you
It ain't about being macho or hard 'n that
It's about sharing and caring and cleaning the flat
Cause friends are forever, no need to stress
Cause who needs to rest when you're best of the best

I remember one time, I was stuck in Bristol
No money for the train, s*** didn't look wilful
I called my best mate, oh yeah he's wicked
He phoned the train station and payed for the train ticket

See we're mates, yeah, and that's what's up
But we ain't soft b****, we'll still fuck you up
But we're nice, come join us
Befriend us kid because we really understand what friendship is
(Best friends)

[Chorus]
Let's hear for you best friends, your best, best, best friends
Let's, let's hear for you best friends, just for you best, best friends
Let's hear for you best friends, let's hear it for your friends
Let's hear for you best friends, Let's, let's hear for you best friends
