Me And My Shadow lyrics by Robbie Williams
Me And My Shadow - Robbie WilliamsIntro(spoken)
Johnny and Robbie.
Youth, what you talking like that for, we're from Stoke!
I dunno but I can't stop here pally.
1. Strophe
Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall.
Like the seashore clings to the sea.
Like you'll never get rid of your shadow,
you'll never get rid of me.
Let all the others fight and fuss,
whatever happens, we've got us.
1. Refrain
(Me and my shadow)
We're closer than pages that stick in a book.
We're closer than ripples that flow in a brook.
(Strolling down the avenue)
Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look.
Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza.
(Me and my shadow)
We're closer than smog to all of L.A.
We're closer than Ricky to confessing he's gay.
Not a soul can bust this team in two.
We stick together like glue.
2. Strophe
And when it's sleeping time, that's when we rise,
we start to swing, (ooh ooh you think you're so jazz you.)
our clocks don't chime, what a surprise!
They ring-a-ding-ding! Happy New Year!
2. Refrain
(Me and my shadow)
And now to repeat what I said at the start,
they'll need a large crowbar to break us apart.
We're alone but far from blue.
Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar!
We'll hit a few late spots, and then a few more.
We'll wind up at Stringy's and maybe Groucho.
Life is gonna be a-wow-wow-whee, for my shadow and me!
Bridge: (spoken)
Can we do that again?
No, I'm too tired.
Oh please Rob.
No, I'm swung out.
I'll give you some money.
I don't need money.
What about a cup of tea?
Not thirsty.
I won't tell anyone you're gay!
Coda
Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar!
We'll hit all the late spots, and then a few more.
We'll wind up at Stringy's and maybe Groucho.
Life is gonna be a-wow-wow-whee, for my shadow and me, yeah!
