you can make many friends if you try

Story behind the song
went to a party on Friday night
couldn't tell the left from right
someone started spinning 'round
tried to drag the whole thing down
picked my body off the floor
and went back for a litte more
"It's alright," they said to me
"they're just friends of mine"
went down to the big news show
seemed to be the place to go
someone tried to grab my watch
so I kicked him in the crotch
pretty soon things escalated
more than I'd anticipated
"It's alright," I later said
"they're just friends of mine"
went to hear the big man speak
his spiel sounded pretty weak
tried to milk the crowd's applause
thinking he was Santa Clause
so I shouted out with glee
"Your words don't mean a thing to me!"
"It's alright," went his reply,
"you're all friends of mine"
I went out to see the race
someone offered me a taste
took a swig and downed it quick
started feeling pretty sick
I went home and wet the bed
woke up in the morning dead
"It's alright," God said to me
"you're a friend of mine"
