So no one told you life was gonna be this way
  Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A.
  It's like you're always stuck in second gear
  When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even
  your year, but
  
  [bad word] 
  
  I'll be there for you
  When the rain starts to pour
  I'll be there for you
  Like I've been there before
  I'll be there for you
  'Cause you're there for me too

  You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
  You've burned your breakfast so far, things are going great
  Your mama warned you there'd be days like these
  But she didn't tell you when the world has brought you down to your knees, and
  [bad word] 
  No one could ever know me
  No one could ever see me
  Since you're the only one who knows what it's like to be me
  Someone to face the day with
  Make it through all the best with
  Someone who always laughs at
  Even when I'm at my worst, I'm best with you
  Yeah!
  [bad word] 
  I'll be there for you
  I'll be there for you
  I'll be there for you
  'Cause you're there for me too
