R.E.M. - This Friendly World Lyrics

Hi, Michael
Hi, Andy, thanks for joining us
Do you wanna, you wanna sing a song together?
Sure! Is it a sweet song?
Yeah, it's real sweet
Okay

In this friendly, friendly world
With each day so full of joy
Why should any heart be lonely?

My turn!
In this friendly, friendly world
With each night so full of dreams
Why should any heart be afraid?

The world is such a wonderful place
To wander through
When you've got someone you love
To wander along with you

Okay, now take every second word!

With the sky so full of stars
And the river so full of song
Every heart should be so thankful
It's a friendly world! Don't you think so, Michael?
Yup!

Oh yeah! What's so friendly about it?
This is Tony Clifton and, and I demand a part in this song!
I'm just as big a part of the movie as these guys are!
And, and I will not sit back while some sought-after
Colonel Kurtz wanna-be, uh, uh has his day in the sun!
I think he's enough boring!
I think, um, uh-uh, Michael here should, uh sit this one out!
At least the next verse, or so!

Is that okay Michael?
Okay
I don't think you have a choice
Okay

The world is such a wonderful place
Ha! To wander a-through!
Ah, when you've got someone you luh-huv
Ah, to wander along, ah, with yooo-hooo!
Okay, you go

With the sky so full of stars
And the river so full of song
Welcome back, Andy
Every heart should be so thankful
Thankful for this friendly, friendly world
Thank you, Michael!
Thanks, Andy!

Thank you all for this friendly, friendly world!
Thanks for nothing! K, where's the girls?
They in a chopper?
The guy's got a chopper, right?
