Holy Moses let us live in peace  
Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease  
There’s a man over there  
What’s his colour I don’t care  
He’s my brother let us live in peace

I knew a man that I did not care for  
And then one day this man gave me a call  
We sat and talked about things on our mind  
And now this man he is a friend of mine  
Don’t be afraid of love

Friends of mine  
They said they were friends of mine  
Said they were passing time  
More like a waste of time

Dissapointed a few people  
When friendship reared its ugly head  
Dissapointed a few people  
Well, isn’t that what friends are for? (What friends are for)
