Beneath the skies of Disneyland In the place where I grew up I learned to think that the man I was Was just not good enough Funny how the road can lead Away from all the ones you need You never know who your friends are
I set out on my mission boat To a place called anywhere I offered my confession up To a priest without a prayer
And as all hope was fadin' I heard you calling from afar You never know who your friends are
Sometimes you may find them Like a wolf in sheep's disguise Sometimes they're just hiding Right before your very eyes
I thought that I was sinking but I found myself afloat And then I started thinkin', man That's a whale that ain't no boat
And in the words of Jonah Which now I holed in high regard You never know who your friends are
Sometimes you may find them...
You can chase the far horizon Trying to be someone you're not You can spend your whole life Searching for what you've already got
Funny how the road can lead Back to all the ones you need You never know who your friends are
You never know who your friends are
