Chorus: Blinded by the light Revved up like a Deuce Another runner in the night Blinded by the light, revved up like a Deuce Another runner in the night Madman drummers bummers Indians in the summer With a teenage diplomat In the dumps with the mumps As the adolescent pumps his way in to his hat With a boulder on my shoulder feeling kind of older I tripped the merry go round With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing The calliope crashed to the ground The calliope crashed to the ground and she was Repeat Chorus Some silicone sister with her manager mister Told me I got what it takes She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong Play the song with the disco break And go kart Mozart was checking out the weather chart See if it was safe outside And little Early Pearly came by in his curly-whirly And asked me if I needed a ride The calliope crashed to the ground and she was Repeat Chorus twice Now Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot And throws his lover in the sand And some bloodshot forget me not his daddy's within earshot Save the buckshot turn up the band Some silicone sister with her manager mister Told me I got what it takes She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong.... She got down, but she never got tight She's gonna make it through the night

Friends really are the frosting on the cake of life; They love us on our good days or in times of strife. They always are so ready to lend a helping hand, And if we are troubled, they're sure to understand. Chorus: Promise me, I can count on you 'Cause on you I can always depend. Promise me, I can count on you It's only you that I need until the very bitter end. Promise me, I can count on you To stay in my heart forever, because you're my best friend. Having friends is wondrous; they enrich us everyday, And help to lessen burdens as we travel on our way. So, I give thanks for friendship, the old ones and the new, For they are of great value and to them I am most true. Repeat Chorus Promise me, I can count on you To stay by my side through dismay Because you're my best friend.
