| (Verse) |
| Woman 1: | We're friends, |
| Woman 2: | Good friends, |
| Or anyway we used to be. |
| |
| Woman 1: | She's fine, |
| Woman 2: | She's great, |
| But it's not like it used to be. |
| |
| Both: | Something came between us, |
| And now our friendship |
| Doesn't make the slightest bit of sense, Hence: |
| Woman 1: | We live, |
| Woman 2: | We live |
| Both: | on different planets now: |
| Woman 1: | She owns. |
| Woman 2: | She rents. |
| |
| Man 1: | He's cool, |
| Man 2: | He's cool, |
| Man 1: | He's everything a bud should be. |
| |
| Man 2: | No gripes, |
| Man 1: | No fights, |
| We hung out -- y'know -- constantly. |
| |
| Man 2: | 'Til he went and did it, |
| Just pulled a fast one |
| That made me want to kill him -- no offense! |
| Man 1: | [Spoken] No problem... |
| Man 2: | He bought a little place before I did! |
| He owns. |
| Man 1: | He rents. |
| |
| (Bridge) |
| Woman 2 & Man 1: | We caught the wave, we're riding high, |
| We're set, |
| Woman 1 & Man 2: | We missed the boat, we're loaded -- |
| With regret. |
| |
| (Verse) |
| Man 3: | She's hot, |
| Woman 3: | He's strong, |
| Both: At least that's how it seemed to me. |
| |
| Man 3: | We got |
| Along |
| Woman 3: | And things were going perfectly! |
| |
| Man 3: | She was soft and cuddly, |
| Until I brought her over -- |
| Suddenly she's cold and hard and tense. |
| Woman 3: | [Spoken, disdainful] Oh, please... |
| |
| Both: | Our dreams just vanished right before our eyes! |
| Man 3: | She owns, |
| Woman 3: | He rents! |
| |
| (Bridge) |
| Woman 2 & Man 1 & Woman 3: | There's nothing like a house |
| For peace of mind, |
| Woman 1 & Man 2 & Man 3: | There's nothing makes you feel |
| So far behind! |
| |
| (Coda) |
| Woman 1: | My friend and I, we live on diff'rent planets now. |
| Man 2: | He bought a house before I did! So anyhow... |
| Woman 3 and Man 3: | Our dreams just vanished right before our eyes! |
| |
Woman 2 & Woman 3:
Man 1: |
