We've been friends for a long time now, haven't we?
Meals and movies, yeah, we've done that quite a bit
So how come every time I spend an evening with you
Next morning I wake up and feel like shit?
And how come if you call me when I think I'm at my best
A half an hour later I'm hopelessly depressed?
And whatever I'm doing, you make me feel it's not the thing to do
You know they got a name for friends like you
Toxic people
Don't you think it's time I learned to stay away from them?

Toxic people
So have a nice life, you won't be seeing me again

Every time I spend time with you, why does it
Seem to take me two days to recover?
Say you call to sympathize 'cause you heard I just broke up
How come next day you're making friends with my ex-lover?
And when there's gossip about me that's especially mean or low
You're always sure to tell me 'cause you're sure I'd want to know
There's nothing that can make me feel
Much worse than your help or sympathy
I can't believe it took me so damn long to see
You're one of the toxic people
Don't you think it's time I learned to stay away from them?
Toxic people
I said, toxic people
So have a nice life, you won't be seeing me again
Well, I used to think it was just my neurosis
And you never meant each dig or sleight or cut
But when something's poison, swallowing one more dose is
Like saying, "Come on, punch me in the gut"
Kick me in the butt
Hey, with friends like you, who needs you-know-what?
Toxic people
Don't you think it's time I learned to stay away from them?
Toxic people
I said, toxic people
So have a nice life, you won't be seeing me
Have a lovely life, you won't be seeing me
Have a wonderful life, you won't be seeing me
Any time real soon again
(Toxic people)
(Toxic people)
Hello?
Oh, hi
Uh, dinner Thursday?
I'm sorry, I can't
I've got plans, sorry
Next week?
Um, gee, you know, I'm out of town
Uh, no, I'm not exactly sure when I'll be back
You know what?
I think that I have jury duty
(Toxic people)
No, I can call you when I get back
Or, um, you know, you can just call me again
In a week or so
