Crinkle
Rip
Slide
Another friend made

Hide behind your facade
Cower beneath that smile
That doesn't reach your eyes

Crinkle
Rip
Slide Slide
Two more friends made

Go on, pretend your shoulders aren't hunched
Say that those eyes are downcast
For no apparent reason

Crinkle
Rip
Tug
Five more friends made

Just continue causing a scene
Claim you don't need the attention
And melt down when you don't get it

Crinkle
Rip
Slide
Crinkle
Rip
Tug

You've lost count at this point
But there's only one left
I stick out my hand

Crinkle
Rip
Slide
One true friend made

And I didn't even want the gum.
