A Boy’s Best Friend Lyrics by The White Stripes

De Stijl

2000

[Verse 1]
I just don't fit in this place
Their thoughts cast me out of here
Their home has run out of space
My mind's already out of here
[Chorus]
Won't you come along, dear?
Won't you come along?
[Verse 2]
Words that are spoke alone
Phrases you will never hear
Empty rooms and a telephone
That I will never use, never fear
[Chorus]
I am all alone, dear
I am all alone
[Verse 3]
My dogs come sit next to me
A pack of dogs and cigarettes
My only friends speak no words to me
But they look at me and they don't forget
That a boy's best friend is his mother or whatever has become his pet
