I've been a moving target, I've been a sitting duck I've almost been an alligator's food And all because somebody with more courage than good sense Had to be rescued from his own ineptitude
Well if commoners with not so much to live for Want to jeapordise their lives maybe that should be allowed But a prince is born for higher things And shouldn't risk his life like an ordinary member of the crowd
But Jean-Bob That's what you do for a friend, oh That's what you do for a friend That's what you do for a friend, my friend That's what you do for a friend
You hang on through the hard times Make 'em laugh when they're feeling low And when the danger's near you say No fear And you go where you have to go
And you never back down And you never back out Fighting even when You're filled with doubt
That's what you do for a friend, oh That's what you do for a friend That's what you do for a friend, my friend That's what you do for a friend
Zipping into danger, dashing into traps Rushing into an untimely end You foolhardy heroes will end up with your backs Against a wall in deep trouble once again
Now some may think it noble to die like that And be immortalised in songs about the past And you may think it wise to have a harrowing demise So that's life's exciting right up to the last
But Jean-Bob That's what you do for a friend, oh That's what you do for a friend That's what you do for a friend, my friend That's what you do for a friend
And you even stick your neck out No matter how scary it gets You go out on a limb when the chances are slim And you do it with no regrets
And you never give up And you never give in You keep on trying Through thick and thin
That's what you do for a friend, oh That's what you do for a friend That's what you do for a friend, my friend That's what you do for a friend
