A True Friend I Am

If really true friends stay by you when time is bad Then I shall stay for you at the end of love To catch you as you fall so hard So to prevent a friend from getting so hurt If really true friends stay by you when time is tough Then I shall stand by you when you woo love So I can untie and lubricate your tongue when they get tied and rough And give braces to your shaking knees to avoid an embarrassing fall If only true friends stay by you during hard times Then I shall stay by you the most on your marriage Not to consume the Curry and thyme But to feed them to your courage If true friends mean helping Then in that room whenever your bed goes creaking I will call the police and brigades Because with that noise and groans, I know something's at stake
