I built a friend
with 3 pieces of plastic and a pen
I made him on the table in the den
I gave him my old cell phone for a head
...for a head
And we spent
holidays at my house and we left
Presents in a stocking and we bought
Bolts and things and
strings and a new watch
...That's what he got
And we had so much fun together
We knew we'd be friends forever...and we
Had so much fun together
...We had so much fun
Then I left
for college in September and we wept
Cause we can't be together so I kept
Pictures to remember my old friend
...my old friend
Then I met
This girl at graduation and forget
My.. oldest creation and I guess
I'll see him ne t vacation send my best
...I send my best
And we had so much fun together
We knew we'd be friends forever...and we
Had so much fun together
...We had so much fun
I came home
To find him on the table with a note
Scribbled out in pencil and he wrote
That he just wasn't stable all alone
...all alone
Ne t to him
An empty glass of water that he spilt
All.. over the body that I built
It fizzled and it popped
and then it killed
...and then it killed
And we had so much fun together
We thought we'd be
friends forever...and we
Had so much fun together
...We had so much fun
I built a friend
