Check the link below to see if we're coming to a location near you! pinkmartini.com/shows Performed and filmed at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland, Oregon, in June 2021 as part of a specially commissioned Pride show, in front of small audience of friends and Fan Club members. "Let's Be Friends" is the first of two new original songs that were released as digital singles in 2020, while the band was on hiatus during the pandemic.

LYRICS Scientists will tell you That it’s a simple fact It’s better to be opposites In order to attract So easy to believe Still I disagree Because they don’t know you And they don’t know me I’m a song You’re the dance I’m the fancy You’re the pants The Paris in my France Let’s be friends You’re the glitz I’m the glam You’re green eggs And I’m a ham Happy as a clam Let’s be friends Why hold your horses? Let’s join forces! Racing in a surrey down the avenue You’ll never need another When you got each other As natural as the sky is blue You’re the beans I’m the rice I’m the sugar You’re the spice We’re twice as nice Let’s be friends Why hold our horses? Let’s join forces! Racing in a surrey down the avenue You’ll never need another When you got each other As natural as the sky is blue Boo – boo – pee – doo You’re a pea Just like me In a pod so happily It’s our destiny Let’s be friends I’m the chit You’re the chat You’re the rabbit In my hat It’s so magical It’s so mystical Irresistible Let’s be friends I’m the dreamer You’re the dream We should be on the cover of a magazine Where’s our limousine? Let’s go make a scene You know what I mean Let’s be friends LINEUP: Thomas M.
