There's a girl, I know with a poison rose

She's gonna bring her I suppose

Everybody's got a pretty friend

The words they buy

The time they spend, goodnight

Goodnight

When her friend's around

She disappears

Amid the broken stems and tears

Everybody's got a pretty friend

The words they buy

The time they spend goodnight

Goodnight

It's a bitter pill

And it's hard to swallow

She could take the lead

But she never follows

The bed of roses

Turn to nails

The best laid plans always fail

Everybody's got a pretty friend

The words they buy

The time they spend goodnight goodnight

Da la la la la
