Me and my shadow(duet with jonathan wilkes)Written by dave dreyer, al jolson and billy rose[spoken]Robbie: (american accent) johnny and robbieJonathon: what you talking like that for, youre from stoke!Robbie: I dunno but I cant stop here pallyLike the wallpaper sticks to the wallLike the c sharp clings to the cLike youll never get rid of your shadowYoull never get rid of meLet all the others fight and fussWhatever happens, weve got us.[me and my shadow]Were closer than pages that stick in a bookWere closer than ripples that flow in a brook[strolling down the avenue]Wherever you find him, youll find me, just lookCloser than a miser or the bloodhounds to lizaMe and my shadowWere closer than smog to all of l.a.Were closer than ricky to confessing hes gay? ?Not a soul can bust this team in twoWe stick together like glueAnd when its sleeping timeThats when we riseWe start to swingOur clocks dont chimeWhat a surpriseThey ring-a-ding-ding!Happy new year![me and my shadow]And now to repeat what I said at the startTheyll need a large crowbar to break us apartWere alone but far from blueBefore we get finished, well make the town roarWell hit a few late spots, and then a few moreWell wind up at stringys and maybe ? showLife is gonna be we-wow-whee!For my shadow and me![spoken]Jonathon: can we do that againRobbie: no, Im too tiredJonathon: please robRobbie: no, Im swung outJonathon: Ill give you some moneyRobbie: I dont need moneyJonathon: what about a cup of teaRobbie: not thirstyJonathon: Ill wont tell anyone youre gay.(both laugh)Before we get finished, well make the town roarWell hit all the late spots, and then a few moreWell wind up at stringys and maybe ? showLife is gonna be we-wow-whee!For my shadow and me!
