there`s a girl i know with a poison rose
she`s gonna bring her
i suppose
everybody`s got a pretty friend
the words they buy
the time they spend
goodnight
when her friend`s around
she disappears
amid the broken stems
and tears
everybody`s got a pretty friend
the words they buy
the time they spend
goodnight
it`s a bitter pill
and it`s hard to swallow
she could take the lead
but she never follows
the bed of roses
turn to nails
the best laid plans
always fail
everybody`s got a pretty friend
the words they buy
the time they spend
goodnight
goodnight
da-la-la-la-la...
