We′re your friends til the bitter end
When you're alone (When you're alone)
Who comes around (Who comes around)
To pluck you up (To pluck you up)
When you are down (When you are down)
And when you′re outside looking in
Who′s there to open the door?
That's what friends are for!
Who′s always eager to extend a friendly claw?
That's what friends are for!
And when you′re lost in dire need
Who's at your side at lightning speed?
We′re friends of every creature
In fact we've never met an animal we didn′t like
And friends in need, and friends indeed
We′ll keep you safe in the jungle forever more
Shere Khan: That's what friends are for!
