“This Is My Friend”
written by Glen Phillips & Todd Nichols
my this is quiet
won’t everybody
come back again
and I’ll say I’m sorry

this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend

isn’t it good
isn’t it real fun
all of you here
or is there no one?

this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend

this is my friend
are you happy here?
no one knows that
come here closer
are you leaving, will you be my friend?

this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
this is my friend
