My Friends from Manasseh's Rose by Hemlock Sun

My friends all got ivory teeth
And we huddle 'neath a cloud of smoke that feels like a breeze
And she's the one with the iron voice
And she throws me all around like I'm an old chew toy

And I say "You know me oh so well"

Back home he's got a mountain of dope
And we ride it on a rocket through a telescope
She's made of maple like she's nailed to the floor
I know she knows she loves me, she don't know what for

They know me oh so well

Friends are fortune, be them good or bad
They may not know how lonesome, may not know how sad
Preaching like pianos played by fingerless ghosts
But I know they'll always be there when I need 'em the most

But they don't know me so well
