We Used to Be Friends Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again, a greeting is said to you
Short and sweet to the soul I intend
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
[Pre-Chorus]
Come on now, honey
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, sugar
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when
[Verse 2]
It's something I said, or someone I know
Or you called me up, maybe I wasn't home
Now everybody needs some time, and everybody knows
The rest of it's fine, and everybody knows that
[Pre-Chorus]
Come on now, sugar
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when you're good to go
Come on now, honey
Bring it on, bring it on, yeah
Just remember me when
[Chorus]
We used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends, hey, hey
[Post-Chorus]
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
[Verse 3]
A long time ago, we used to be friends
But I haven't thought of you lately at all
If ever again, a greeting is said to you
Short and sweet to the soul I intend
[Chorus]
We used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends
A long time ago, we used to be friends, hey, hey
[Outro]
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh
A, ah-ahh-ahh-ahh

How did the song end up as the theme for Veronica Mars?
The writer of [Veronica Mars] is a fan [of the band], and it apparently [“We Used to be Friends”] just works as lyrical content and the feel he wanted to have for the show. And it sounds kinda like that chick looks, you know? She’s got kind of a good New Wave-y haircut, and a good angular face, and...
