[Spoken] Robbie: (American accent) Johnny and Robbie Jonathan: What you talking like that for, you're from Stoke! Robbie: I dunno but I can't stop here pally Jonathan: Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall Robbie: Like the seashore clings to the sea Jonathan: Like you'll never get rid of your shadow Robbie: You'll never get rid of me BOTH Let all the others fight and fuss Whatever happens, we've got us Robbie: [Me and my shadow] Jonathan: We're closer than pages that stick in a book Jonathan: We're closer than ripples that flow in a brook Robbie: [Strolling down the avenue] Jonathan: Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look Jonathan: Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza Jonathan: [Me and my shadow] Robbie: Closer than smog is to all of L.A. Robbie: Closer than Ricky to confessing he's gay BOTH Not a soul can bust this team in two We stick together like glue Robbie: And when it's sleeping time Jonathan: That's when we rise Robbie: We start to swing Robbie: Our clocks don't chime Jonathan: What a surprise BOTH They ring-a-ding-ding! Happy New Year! Jonathan: [Me and my shadow] Robbie: And now to repeat what I said at the start Robbie: They'll need a large crowbar to break us apart Both: We're alone but far from blue Both: Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar Jonathan: We'll hit a few late spots, and then a few more BOTH We'll start out at Stringy's and maybe Groucho Life is gonna be wow-wow-whee! For my shadow and me! [Spoken] Jonathon: Can we do that again? Robbie: No, I'm too tired Jonathon: Oh, please Rob Robbie: No, I'm swung out Jonathon: Oh come on, I'll give you some money Robbie: I don't need money Jonathon: What about a cup of tea? Robbie: Not thirsty Jonathon: I won't tell anybody you're gay Robbie: (Laugh) fuck off! BOTH Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar We'll hit all the late spots, and then a few more We'll start out at Stringy's and maybe Groucho Life is gonna be wow-wow-whee! For my shadow and me! |
