Very Best Friend

I got to get my shit together

I got to get out there again

I pull myself up off the porcelain and I'm all outta my head

I got so much to do today

But, I just can't make it

Oh, oh, now Lordy now

I'm feeling sordid and I'm taking a phone call

So, I call: Hey, Charles (Hey, girl!)

Is Johnny over there? (Yeah, he's here)

Is he wasting time? (Yeah, he's wasting time)

Alright! (Uh-huh)

Tell him I'm gonna come see him (Alright, I will!)

'Cause he's my very best friend!

He's my very best friend

He's my very best friend

Well, I boogie-woogie'd on in my oogie-boogie

And i'll tell you what, I'll meet you half way down the road You got the reds, whites and blues

And the yellow and green ones too...

I'm gonna take the whole load

I'll meet you today

Well, I may not make it...

Whoa now, hold it now!

'Cause i'm feeling kinda loaded and i gotta call my Ma...

So, I call: Hey, Charles (Hey, girl!)

Is Johnny still over there? (Yeah, he's here)

Is he wasting time? (Yeah, he's wasting time)
