remember last summer on the beach   nothing in sight was out of reach   on the wooden castle yelling "mayday! mayday!"   howbout last week in my car   nothing in town was too far   nothing was funnier than "flavin" and "lady!"      its hard to say, its hard to say   that all of it was easy   its hard to say, when girls get in the way   but my friends are more important to me      remember that one night after the show   when we had to take the dumb kid home   we never ever had to pick up the pieces   what about that girl you thought was it   who left you like a piece of shit   because you dont worship the Jesus      she may have pretty hair   and your friends will be there   when she tells you she loves you   she may have eyes that stare but she wont always care   and well be there when she dumps you      my friends are more important, my friends are more important to me
