I've just been to see my best friend
He's found another girl 
Says she's just about the best thing 
In the whole damn world 

And he says, "Can't you see 
What the little lady's done for me?" 
Says it like he thinks I'm blind
But the things that you see 
Ain't necessarily the things you can find 

Happy loving couples make it look so easy 
Happy loving couples always talk so kind 
'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner 
Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine 

People say I'm too damn fussy 
When it comes to girls 
Happy couples say 
I must live in a lonely world 

Wanna be, wanna really be 
What my friends pretend to be 
Be it in my own good time 
Being kind to myself 
'Til I become one of two of a kind 

But those happy loving couples make it look so easy 
Happy loving couples always talk so kind 
'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner 
Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine 

You ain't no friends of mine 

You ain't no friends of mine 

You know what I mean 
Happy loving couples 
In matching lamb turtle-neck sweaters 
Reading Ideal Homes magazine
Yeah! 

Wanna be, wanna really be 
What my friends pretend to be 
Be it in my own good time 
Being kind to myself 
'Til I become one of two of a kind 

But those happy loving couples make it look so easy 
Happy loving couples always talk so kind 
'Til the time that I can do my dancing with a partner 
Those happy couples ain't no friends of mine 

You ain't no friends of mine 
You ain't no friends of mine 
You ain't no friends of mine 
You ain't no friends of mine 
You ain't no friends of mine 
You ain't no friends of mine 

Right, that's enough
