However, it didn't win for this category

"My Best Friends in the World"[1] is a song that was sung in "What Was Missing." It is written by Rebecca Sugar and produced by Tim Kiefer. It is sung by Finn, with Marceline and, to a much lesser extent, Princess Bubblegum singing occasional harmony. Princess Bubblegum, BMO, Jake, and Marceline played the tune. It was the only song that was able to successfully open the Door Lord's magic door. In this song, Finn confesses to Princess Bubblegum that his item that was stolen was a lock of her hair and that he considers the three his best friends and asks them what do they think of him in return.

Lyrics[]

Everyone, Bubblegum, I'm so dumb, I should've just told you
What I lost, was a piece of your hair
Now it's gone, gone forever, but I guess, what does it matter
When I just, just had all of you there
Oh, just had all of you there with me, my friends
If you're even my friends.
You like this? This is what was missing. The truth!
What am I to you?
Am I a joke, your knight, or your brother?
What am I to you?
Do you look down on me 'cause I'm younger?
Do you think that I don't understand?
I just wanted us together and to play as a band,
Last night was the most fun I've ever had,
Even liked it when the two of you would get mad...at each other.
Oh, you a-a-a-a-are my best friends in the world.
You a-a-a-a-are my best friends in the world.
And That's ri-i-i-i-ight, I'm talking about the two of you girls,
And you Jake,
I wanna sing a song to you and I refuse to make it fake.
What am I to you?
Am I a joke, your knight, or your brother?
What am I to you?
Do you look down on me 'cause I'm younger?
Do you think that I don't understand?
I just wanted us together and to play as a band
I'll forget that I lost a piece of your hair
I'll remember the pasta that we shared...over there.
Ah ah, you a-a-a-a-are my best friends in the world.
You a-a-a-a-are my best friends in the world.
And that's ri-i-i-i-ight, I'm talking about the two of you girls,
And you Jake,
I'm gonna sing a song to you and I refuse to make it fake.
Make no mistake,
I'm gonna sing a song that feels so real, it'll make this do-o-o-o-or break!
