lyrics

Haul down the old canoe
I'm packing my things today
for a five night stay at Cap Est Lagoon
I’ll be there soon

Cause I heard that you're there
You and that lanky debonaire
Some French dude you met on a cruise
with the girls from St. Clare's
Does he pull your hair?

I don’t wanna be
A friend of a friend again

I'm sure I'd feel more ashamed
But I'm lit up from all this
sweet 'ti punch they're giving away
Just here to ruin your day

Shipping out at 9:00
To snorkel with Nella and Mr. Right
But my plans go south when I find out
that he'll rob you blind
Hope you believe me this time

But you don't want to be
A friend of a friend again

I know it was all for show
Like your new phone
But somewhere between au pairs
We let go
