I gave you warning
But you weren't having what I say
A silence hanging
Like heavy heat after the day
And we could keep sitting around
Watching the paint flake off the walls
Waiting for answers
That are never gonna come.

But I don't need no
Friends like these, no.
I don't need no
Friends like these, no

There's lots of gray shades
But that don't make black the same as white
You said it feels good
Like that makes everything all right
But I don't blame you
You were only looking out for yourself
History's proven
That that's what we do best

And I don't need no
Friends like these, no
I don't need no
Friends like these, no

We know it's time
To dress for Sunday morning
Smiles, sometimes you gotta force 'em
Gather round the fire
And see what's burning down

I don't need no
I don't need no
