Текст «Cake — Friend Is a Four Letter Word»
To me, coming from you,
Friend is a four letter word,
End is the only part of the word
That I heard,
Call me morbid or absurd,
But to me, coming from you,
Friend is a four letter word
[x2]
When I go fishing for the words
I am wishing you would say to me,
I’m really only praying
That the words you’ll soon be saying
Might betray the way you feel about me
But to me, coming from you,
Friend is a four letter word

Перевод «Cake — Friend Is a Four Letter Word»
Для меня сказанное тобой
«Камрад» — слово из пяти букв,
«Ад» — это только часть слова,
Что я услышал,
Назови меня больным или нелепым,
Но для меня сказанное тобой
«Камрад» — слово из пяти букв
[x2]
Когда я напрашиваюсь на слова,
Столь желанные для меня,
Я просто молюсь,
Чтобы слова, которые ты вскоре скажешь,
Смогли изменить твои чувства ко мне
Но для меня сказанное тобой
«Камрад» — слово из пяти букв

This song is about a girl who breaks up with a guys by telling him they should be «Friends.» This is not what he wants to hear, and to his ears, and the resulting heartbreak makes him think of the word «Friend» as dirty and cruel — similar to many vulgar 4-letter words in the English language.

The lyrics are a play on words, the four letter word they refer to is «iend,» and is the only part of the word that the singer hears, which sounds like «end.»

To me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
End is the only part of the word
That I heard
Call me morbid or absurd
But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
To me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
End is the only part of the word
That I heard
Call me morbid or absurd
But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
When I go fishing
for the words
I am wishing you would say to me
I am really only praying that
The words you’ll soon be saying
Might betray
The way you feel about me
But to me
Coming from you
Friend is a four letter word
