All I Need


They ask what can I not live without

I thought and thought

But now I doubt

 

I thought it would be my phone or computer

This generation's addicted

We all need a tutor

 

I don’t need something to go out of date

I need something to last

Alas! I can't live without a mate

 

Not someone to bang

I mean a friend

Someone to keep me company and come over to hang

 

I can’t imagine a world

Without a friend or two

Without one I would be lost and my mind be swirled

 

I’m absolutely sure

I want someone to lean on

I can’t live without my friends it would be sure a bore

 

Now ask me again

What I can’t live without

I’ll say my best friend, because who needs men?
