Say I Love You To Your Closest Friends

Inspired by Boone Shear and Steve Fischer

Lyrics:

There’s something I say to my spouse and to my kids
And to my parents and sure to my sibs
I say it with that tone, so my dog knows
But I rarely say it to others so close

Maybe it’s fear brought to us
Of anything seeming non-monogamous
Sneaky homophobia that’s for sure
Why this lack of closeness should I endure

So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends
So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends

But only if you mean it that is
Keep that meaningful reserved status
Let’s not just go giving them out
Like beads on a Mardi Gras route

Those friends who’ve really been there
Deserve to know you deeply do care
Don’t just puff your chest and bump their fist
Common’ hug them and say it proud, you get the gist

So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends
So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends

Ten soccer fields of forest lost per sec
Climate change coming breakneck
Sea levels up six inches this century
Twelve million unrehabilitating in a penitentiary

Extinction one thousand times the natural rate
Wow our species will test our fate
Microplastics building up in our testes
And we’re afraid to say it to our besties

So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends
So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends
So, I say F it, before this world ends
Just say I love you to your closest friends
