"Oh, the Big Suits tell me that I'm doing it right,
'Cause the kids, they seem to dig it, almost every night;
They say it's going just perfect, keep it moving forward,
But, first there's one opinion that you've got to get onboard,
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
It's so important that we get them onside;
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
I can't lie, I can't lie – I never felt the need to satisfy!
Well they never put their neck out, can't decide,
They never get behind the wheel, just go for a ride;
The label say it's better than a piece in The Mirror,
But the reflection I'm receiving couldn't be less clear!
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
It's so important that we get them onside;
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
I can't lie, I can't lie – I never felt the need to satisfy!
I'm gonna start up the bandwagon, drive to your house,
Set you off for 20 minutes, just to kick you out;
I'd love to pick you back up, just to knock you down
I don't need you! I don't want to beat you!
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
It's so important that we get them onside;
You gotta keep your friends close, but the enemy closer,
I can't lie, I can't lie – I never felt the need to satisfy!
