Your New Best Friend
George Smith / David Brown
We spend most of our lives
Moving on towards the light
Till one day we ascertain
The light’s an oncoming train
And all the things you thought were key
Are now just defunct currencies
Change - You can sense the danger
Change - Like a deceptive bend
Change - Better get to know the stranger
Change - Could be your new best friend
Like a lost and hungry hound
The past will follow you around
If you don’t find it a home
It will bite you to the bone
There ain’t no use you tryin’ to run
Best stroke the fur of the cur you shun
Change – The future you endanger
Change – If you do not transcend
Change - Better get to know the stranger
Change - Could be you new best friend
He will come when you least expect
Maybe this year maybe next
When he comes you my not know his face
So smile at everybody just in case
It’s been a dark and scary night
Now we blink into the light
And with the rising of the sun
We see the damage that was done
But hope stands at the podium
Out of the many we are truly one
Change – It’s been a long time coming
Change – Could things be on the mend?
Change – Now every man and woman
Change - Could be you new best friend
