[Verse 1]
Here comes Frankie, nice and sleezy
He's got something up his sleevy
Wide Ku-Klux grin, I see right through him
Easy to keep him under my skin
So I spin him around said I'd make him a star
Then one by one his old friends die hard
[Interlude]
Ladies and gentlemen you are listening to The Mysterines with Old Friends / Die Hard Heard that Old Sunny Jim? Old friends die hard
[Verse 2]
Franky, angel, be my Carny
Be my baby, my Lee Harvey
He's so eager, he wants to please me
"Frankie, go shoot the hеart out of her dreams!"
So I spin him around, said I'd make him a star
Thеn one by one his old friends die hard
[Bridge]

How's it make you feel?
You're a star now
Can't you see?
[Verse 3]

Kiss by kiss his old friends die hard
(Kiss by kiss his old friends die hard)
Limb by limb his old friends die hard
(Limb by limb his old friends die hard)
One by one they all just died so hard
Old Friends / Die Hard was written by Lia Metcalfe.
