Asking For A Friend

from Summerfall by The Brothers Burn

about

Can you even say you're a liar if you haven't done the "asking for a friend" thing?

lyrics

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
How do you remove the blood stains
From an old clock radio?

Let’s make this clear
It ain’t about me I’m not that kind of guy
It’s someone else who I will not identify

I’m asking for a friend
Who you have never met
I’m asking for a friend
‘Cause he’s got no internet
No internet

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
How do you prove to the sheriff that
You haven’t been to Mexico?

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
How can you prove you have a black belt
If you don’t know taekwondo?

Let’s make this clear
It ain’t about me I’m not that kind of guy
It’s someone else who I will not identify

I’m asking for a friend
Who you have never met
I’m asking for a friend
‘Cause he’s got no internet
No internet

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
Can I claim as a business expense
A trip to a bordello?

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
Can you purge a felony offense if
It was a long time ago?

There’s something I been meaning to ask
There’s something I need to know
How do you pass off an old picture as
A legitimate Van Gogh?

Let’s make this clear
It ain’t about me I’m not that kind of guy
It’s someone else who I will not identify

I’m asking for a friend
Who you have never met
I’m asking for a friend
‘Cause he’s got no internet
I’m asking for a friend
Who you have never met
I’m asking for a friend
‘Cause he’s got no internet
No internet
