Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Senseless reasoning

You believe what you want to believe

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

On you no one can depend

Bad times

Now they must end

Whatever you want it to be

For you that's what it will be

Honesty to you is arbitrary

Logic is lost in your

Cranial abattoir

Shallow

Empty inside

Sly-witted

And full of snide

Bad times

Now they must end

The shutter-speed of your thinking process

Is small

Too small

Too full of pride

Bad times

Now they must end


[Guitar solo]

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Bad times

Now they must end

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Bad times

Now they must end

Used to be nice

Now you're twice as nice

Used to be good

Now you're too good

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Bad times

They must end

On you no one can depend

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Logic is lost in your

Cranial abattoir

Shallow

Empty inside

Sly-witted

Full of snide

The shutter-speed of your thinking process

Is small

Too small

Too full of pride

Lost in a storm

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Bad times

Now they must end

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Farewell, my fair-weather friend

Farewell, my fair-weather friend
