1997

Well I've made so many new friends

With open arms they let me in

They say they'll be with me 'till the end

They say they'll stay through thick and thin

And it's gonna happen in 1997

The crowd you like is dangerous

I heard they're just no good

I'd rather have you stay at home now

Like a good boy should

I heard they can't be trusted

I heard they all wear white

I'd rather have you prove me wrong

Than go and prove me right

Mama please don't make this harder

Well it's tough to love another

And it's hard to find a friend

Somebody else who has no others

Somebody else who understands

Then it happened in 1997

The crowd you like is dangerous

I heard they're just no good

I'd rather have you stay at home now

Like a good boy should

I heard they can't be trusted

I heard they all wear white

I'd rather have you prove me wrong

Than go and prove me right

Mama please don't make this harder

Well I've made so many new friends

They say they'll be with me 'till the end

And it's gonna happen in 1997
