Robbie Williams - Me & My Shadow lyrics

Me and my shadow

(duet with jonathan wilkes)

Written by dave dreyeral jolson and billy rose

[spoken]

Robbie: (american accent) johnny and robbie

Jonathon: what you talking like that foryou're from stoke!

Robbie: I dunno but I can't stop here pally

Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall

Like the c sharp clings to the c

Like you'll never get rid of your shadow

You'll never get rid of me

Let all the others fight and fuss

Whatever happenswe've got us.

[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 himyou'll find mejust 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

And when it's sleeping time

That's when we rise

We start to swing

Our clocks don't chime

What a surprise

They ring-a-ding-ding!

Happy new year!

[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 finishedwe'll make the town roar

We'll hit a few late spotsand then a few more

We'll wind up at stringy's and maybe ? show

Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!

For my shadow and me!

[spoken]

Jonathon: can we do that again

Robbie: noI'm too tired

Jonathon: please rob

Robbie: noI'm swung out

Jonathon: I'll give you some money

Robbie: I don't need money

Jonathon: what about a cup of tea

Robbie: not thirsty

Jonathon: I'll won't tell anyone you're gay.

(both laugh)

Before we get finishedwe'll make the town roar

We'll hit all the late spotsand then a few more

We'll wind up at stringy's and maybe ? show

Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!

For my shadow and me!
