I'll Be There For You
by Dare Cheung
[Sung to the same tune by the Rembrandts (i.e. "Friends" opening)]
So no one told you life was gonna be this way [four claps]
Your job's serving drinks to folks, with very little pay,
Pouring sake's better than a mug of beer,
If only Ace would pay his tab sometime this week, month or year, .. but
CHORUS
I'll be there for you,
(When the patrons start to brawl)
I'll be there for you,
(Until I yell out 'Last call!')
I'll be there for you,
(Cause you've been there for me, too)
You're still cleaning last night's mess, you open up at nine,
Elyssa's called in sick, things aren't going fine,
Ryan warned you there'd be days like these,
It would have been nice if he told you who hid your door keys, but
REPEAT CHORUS
Everyone at the Lurker's Retreat, everyone's hanging out,
It's where Miyuki's at, the only place where you can shout,
"Give me another glass, pour me another shot,
don't hold back, gimme all you got,
Cuz if you're drunk, I'd clean up after you,
yeah!"
Pouring sake's better than a mug of beer,
If only Ace would pay his tab sometime this week, month or year, .. but
REPEAT CHORUS
END
