Tribe One - Why Can't We Be Friends lyrics

[Intro] (*clears throat*) Yo, let me tell you something [Verse 1: Tribe One] Now, this is not another one that got away song This is about the one I made a huge mistake on I'm gonna tell you some things that'll make ya face palm And you'll be glad to know I left and then I stayed gone Before it all went way wrong it seemed great We met each other with no strings and a clean slate Everything to make a new relationship begin to blossom We had so many things in common, it was awesome She was all that I could think of for a solid week Every night, talking on the phone until we'd fall asleep And then we'd wake up and everyday was chat and text That's why it caught me off guard with what happened next I guess I just expected too much from her Cause she seemed to hit All of the keywords in my custom search And as we grew as lovers I would soon discover I'd regret we ever met And wish we never knew each other [Hook/Sample] Why can't we be friends? X 4 [Verse 2: Tribe One] Have you ever thought You really got to know a person? And then you learned That you were being shown a phony version? If that makes me shallow, she was off the deep end And these are the reasons we could never be friends: She likes Star Wars I like Star Trek She obviously watched it but thought that it was far-fetched And I haven't even said the worst part yet That she preferred Kirk when clearly Picard's best My aching heart made it hard to stay impartial When she said she loved D.C. and hated Marvel And there was nothing more sure to make us argue Then when we tried to sit and pick a favorite cartoon She told me she would like me better as a Brony But if she don't like Adventure Time she'll never really know me And nothing was worse than getting my feelings hurt Agreeing on Ghostbusters but not on who the real ones were And that slap in the face left a bad after taste Cause I'm a Mac and she was P.C. master race Among her other numerous regrettable habits She tried to tell me Yu-Gi-Oh was better than Magic You know that she preferred the wrong doctor? And she inferred that she was certain Han shot first? And even after that I thought that we could still be friends though But then she said that Genesis was better than Nintendo? Aw, hell no [Hook/Sample] Why can't we be friends? X 8 [Verse 3: Tribe One] Now there are times when you're forced to choose sides And that choice will determine the course of two lives When divides are too wide, it's easy to lose sight And it all becomes about who's wrong and who's right But there's no point in starting new fights You just move on to someone who wants what you like Every new dawn starts with moonlight And some diamonds don't last forever But me and her are never getting back together Never ever, Never ever Never eh- Never ever? Never ever?! Yeah, no. exactly Never. not ever [Hook/Sample] Why can't we be friends? X 8
