Can’t We Be Friends? Songtext
von Seth MacFarlane

I took each word she said as gospel truth
The way a silly little child would
I can′t excuse it on the grounds of youth
I was no babe in the wild, wild wood
She didn't mean it, I should′ve seen it
But now, it's too late

I thought I'd found the girl of my dreams
Now, it seems this is how the story ends
She′s gonna turn me down and say
"Can′t we be friends?"

I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
Not for long, I can see the way this ends
She′s gonna turn me down and say
"Can't we be friends?"


Why should I care
Though she gave me the air?
Why should I cry
Heave a sigh and wonder why?
And wonder why

I thought I′d found a girl I could trust
What a bust, this is how the story ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can′t we be friends?"

Why should I care
Though she gave me the air?
Why should I cry
Heave a sigh and wonder why?
And wonder why

I thought I'd found the girl I could trust
What a bust, this is how the story ends
She's gonna turn me down and say
"Can′t we, please, be friends?"
