about

From the songwriting duo responsible for Pink Martini's biggest hits! Bandleader Thomas Lauderdale and singer China Forbes teamed up with writer/producer Jim Bianco to craft "Let's Be Friends," a charming ditty in classic Great American Songbook style. This sunny ode to the warm harmony of a great friendship is the perfect antidote to the stress of our times.

lyrics

Scientists will tell you
That it’s a simple fact
It’s better to be opposites
In order to attract

So easy to believe
Still I disagree
Because they don’t know you
And they don’t know me

I’m a song
You’re the dance
I’m the fancy
You’re the pants
The Paris in my France
Let’s be friends

You’re the glitz
I’m the glam
You’re green eggs
And I’m a ham
Happy as a clam
Let’s be friends

Why hold your horses?
Let’s join forces!
Racing in a surrey down the avenue
You’ll never need another
When you got each other
As natural as the sky is blue

You’re the beans
I’m the rice
I’m the sugar
You’re the spice
We’re twice as nice
Let’s be friends

Why hold our horses?
Let’s join forces!
Racing in a surrey down the avenue
You’ll never need another
When you got each other
As natural as the sky is blue
Boo – boo – pee – doo

You’re a pea
Just like me
In a pod so happily
It’s our destiny
Let’s be friends

I’m the chit
You’re the chat
You’re the rabbit
In my hat
It’s so magical
It’s so mystical
Irresistible
Let’s be friends

I’m the dreamer
You’re the dream
We should be on the cover of a magazine
Where’s our limousine?
Let’s go make a scene
You know what I mean
Let’s be friends
