Let’s Be Friends Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Call out your persuasions
I got the feeling that you don't know what to say, it's a
A black dress occasion
Nobody's dying, it's a dinner, not a date, but I
Feel young and inspired
That this is over and I'm hoping you'll agree, so I
Phase out and smile over
That little phrase, "It isn't you, baby, it's me"
[Pre-Chorus]
So take the tarot card
And tell a fortune gold
The past heartbreaks, the lies we told, we tell again
[Chorus]
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Verse 2]
You take it, the bottle down
Man, this is easier than how I thought it'd go
You smiling like a devil
You tell me you were coming here to let me know that
It's over when it's over
And it's over, baby
Call out your persuasions
I got the feeling that you don't know what to say, it's a
A black dress occasion
Nobody's dying, it's a dinner, not a date, but I
Feel young and inspired
That this is over and I'm hoping you'll agree, so I
Phase out and smile over
That little phrase, "It isn't you, baby, it's me"
[Pre-Chorus]
So take the tarot card
And tell a fortune gold
The past heartbreaks, the lies we told, we tell again
[Chorus]
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Verse 2]
You take it, the bottle down
Man, this is easier than how I thought it'd go
You smiling like a devil
You tell me you were coming here to let me know that
It's over when it's over
And it's over, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
So take the tarot card (Take the tarot card)
And tell a fortune gold
The past heartbreaks, the lies we told, we tell again
[Chorus]
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Post-Chorus]
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
[Interlude]
I had a really nice time with you
I mean, you're sort of a dick sometimes
But someone out there is surely gonna love a dick
Uh, check, please
So take the tarot card (Take the tarot card)
And tell a fortune gold
The past heartbreaks, the lies we told, we tell again
[Chorus]
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Post-Chorus]
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
[Interlude]
I had a really nice time with you
I mean, you're sort of a dick sometimes
But someone out there is surely gonna love a dick
Uh, check, please
[Chorus]
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Post-Chorus]
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
[Outro]
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Not really though
Let's be friends, then never speak again (Ooh)
It's cool (Cool), we can just pretend
We're friends and never speak again (Never speak again)
See you soon, hope we can remain good friends
[Post-Chorus]
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
Catch you later
Never gonna see you again
See you never
Let's be friends
[Outro]
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Not really though
