Friend Or Lover
 

When I was a little boy
Sittin' on my Momma's knee
I was perfectly content
Just to eat and be free
I ran, I played, I hurt myself
I faced life happily
Then one day I suddenly thought
What is this stirring in me

I was climbing up a tree
I made a marvelous find
I saw fabulous things
And I didn't go blind
So I was busy as a bee
Then I suddenly found
There's another sex in this world
So light, so soft, so smooth and round

Hey, Hey, What do you say
Tell me how we got this way
Hey, Hey, Where have you been
You don't need a lover when you got a friend
You don't need a lover when you got a friend
Hey, Hey, What do you say
Tell me how we got this way
Hey, Hey, Where have you been
You don't need a lover when you got a friend
You don't need a lover when you got a friend

Should I give up my wanton ways
It's hard to abandon old friends
Can one kiss give you religion
Can one lover be the end
Can a poor boy be forgiven
For wearing his hormones out
This is the way God made me
And that's what it's all about

God is a great inventor
Hormones are wonderful things
They're better than cottage cheese
They're much better than bling
Now I've finally hit my stride
Makin' whoopee hand over fist
I've come to one conclusion
Two enemies can coexist
