I know a man 

Back in Japan 

Backyard Babies 

Is his favorite band 



I got a friend 

His name is Ben 

He's gone to hell 

But they won't let him in 



Cause there is nothing 

That touches me the way they do 

And all the lies, you've been hearin' baby 

They're all true 

Cause there is nothin' 

That touches me they way they do 

Nothing touches me the way these people do 



I got a friend 

Her name is Grace 

When we broke up 

It put a smile on my face 



And there's a girl 

That I love 

Sadly she resides in 

Heaven up above 



Cause there is nothing 

That touches me the way they do 

And all the lies, you've been hearin' baby 

They're all true 

Cause there is nothin' 

That touches me they way they do 

Nothing touches me the way these people do 



Look at all these lonely people 

They're born to lose 

But they can not die 



I love my friend 

My only friend 

He doesn't know me 

But his word is my command 



We meet our friends 

Down at the bar 

Celebrity intoxicated stars
