I'm feelin' so good right now. There's a handsome boy tells me how I changed his past. He buys me a brandy. But could it be he's really just after my ass?. He likes the clothes I wear. He says he likes a man who's dressed in season. But no one else ever stares he's being so kind. What's the reason?. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. That love me that want me that'll take me as I am?. Suddenly it's the silver screen. And a face so beautiful that I have to cry out. Everybody hears me. But I look like a fool now. With a cry and I shy out. She knows all of my friends. But it's nice to find a woman who can stay home late. Now I think I've reached the end. I wonder in the dead of night - how do I rate?. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. That love me that want me that'll take me as I am?. Bridge. It's all like a dream you know. When you're still up early in the morning. And you all sit together to watch the sun come through. But things don't look so good. When you could use a bit of warning. Then you know that no one will ever speak the truth about you. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. That love me that want me that'll take me as I am?. When I first signed a contract. It was more than a handshake then. I know it still is. But there's a plain fact. We talk so much shit behind each other's backs. I get the willies. People know nothing about their own soft gut. So how come they can sum us up. Without suffering all the hype we've known. How come they bum us up. How many friends have I really got?. You can count 'em on one hand. How many friends have I really got?. How many friends have I really got?. That love me that want me that'll take me as I am?
