Friend Is a Four Letter Word Lyrics

To me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
End is the only part of the word
That I heard
Call me morbid or absurd
But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word

To me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
End is the only part of the word
That I heard
Call me morbid or absurd
But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word

When I go fishing
for the words
I am wishing you would say to me
I am really only praying that
The words you'll soon be saying
Might betray
The way you feel about me

But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word

What is the Meaning of Friend Is a Four Letter Word?

I love Cake, have since I was a little kid! Most of my friends were listening to early Britney or the Spice Girls at the time but my dad had me and my sisters listening to this "weird music." The meaning is pretty obviously about betrayal from a friend, that 'friend' becomes a four letter word, AKA a curse word. Despite the sparse lyrics, they're quite poetic - for example 'End is the only part of the word that I heard"
