Old Friend 4 Sale Lyrics

Prince Old Friend 4 Sale

The sun set in the west this mornin'

4 I know, I know L.A. is callin'

Bad news, Steve said, and people are talkin'

They say your kingdom is fallin', yeah

They say U lost your fire

When another musician U hired

Little do they know, U wouldn't have passed go

Unless they could take U higher, yeah



The sun set in my heart this afternoon

4 2 friends of mine got stuck in the snow

In Uptown when winter's alarmin', oh

Cocaine becomes charmin'

But U talk about things U don't know 'bout

I know, no matter how pleasant your past was

Green and white return 2 blue

U're happy as long as your last buzz

And then U think U want something new, yeah



The sun, the sun set in my mind this evening

4 someone who said they would die 4 me

Sold some, they sold some more pictures and all my little memories

Chump change is 2 unravel the mystery, ah ha

But life is no fun, life ain't no fun without fantasy

Some things are better left unsaid

And some people are better left untrusted

Maybe, maybe, maybe it'll all make sense when I'm dead

When I'm dead



Old friends 4 sale

Get'em while the gettin' is hot

Watch out, they'll kiss U until they get what U got

And they'll show U the friends that they're not
