Lyrics

 * [Capper]
 * This town is not a nice place
 * For little fillies all alone
 * There are lots of twists and corners
 * That could lead to the unknown


 * Let me guide your way
 * And I'll be sure to help you through
 * You could really use a friend out here
 * And luckily for you...


 * I'm the friend that you need
 * When you're lost and don't know what to do
 * I'm your pal, your amigo
 * Useful and resourceful, too


 * And my help, you'll concede
 * Is a plus guaranteed
 * You can call and I'll come running
 * Just follow my lead
 * 'Cause I'm the friend you need!


 * [Klugetown Wool-Seller]
 * He's a friend


 * Scaly Klugetowner: Quite a friend!


 * [Klugetowners]
 * He's a friend indeed!
 * [chomp]


 * [Capper]
 * You need a bud to spot the danger
 * A pal to stop the creep
 * A chum and not a stranger to assist


 * You need a bro who is cunning
 * That can help you take the leap
 * A friend who knows what's lying in the mist


 * Don't fear these darkened alleys
 * They're scary, yes, I know
 * Why, you could use a friend
 * To protect you wherever you go


 * And such a dazzling beauty
 * Covered in dirt and muck
 * But now your fate is changing
 * Now you are in luck


 * 'Cause I'm the friend that you need
 * When you're lost and don't know what to do
 * I'm your pal, your amigo
 * Lookin' out for friends like you


 * And my help, you'll concede
 * Is a plus guaranteed
 * Just call and I'll come running
 * We'll say it's agreed...


 * [to Needy] Here. Tell Verko, "My place, twenty minutes." I've got something that will "magically" erase all my debt.


 * 'Cause I'm the friend you need!


 * [Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, and Rainbow Dash]
 * He's a friend


 * Rarity: Quite a friend!


 * [Ponies except Twilight Sparkle]
 * He's a friend indeed!
