(Verse)
What do you think that you're trying to prove
As you came up and talked down on me
Bending my ear, accusate me of wrong
With friends like that, who needs enemies?
(Chorus)
Oh, I can cry with little help from my friends
Oh, and that's why, with little help from my friends
I'm gonna die with little help from my friends
What did I do to deserve such a fate?
(Was it murder or some evil fault?)
How do I deal with the pressure and pain?
(Are you sad because you're finally caught?)
(Chorus)
Oh, I can cry with little help from my friends
Oh, and that's why, with little help from my friends
I'm gonna die with little help from my friends
(Bridge)
(Did you cheat anybody?) I cheat nobody at all
(Did you steal anybody?) That wasn't funny at all
(Would you agree to a lie detector test?)
Yes, I'm certain that I haven't done a crime
(What did the police say you had to confess?)
I would tell them that they've lost their minds
(Chorus)
Oh, I can cry with little help from my friends
Oh, and that's why, with little help from my friends
I'm gonna die with little help from my friends
(Bridge)
(Did you beat anybody?) I just keep beating my breast
(Do you need an attorney?) I need you to give it a rest
(Chorus)
Oh, I can cry with little help from my friends
Oh, and that's why, with little help from my friends
I'm gonna die with little help from my friends
