|
Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall |
|
Like the seashore clings to the sea |
|
Like you'll never get rid of your shadow |
|
Frank, you'll never get rid of me |
|
Let all the others fight and fuss |
|
Whatever happens, we've got us. |
|
Me and my shadow |
|
We're closer than pages that stick in a book |
|
We're closer than ripples that play in a brook |
|
Strolling down the avenue |
|
Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look |
|
Closer than a miser or the bloodhound's ? ? ? ? ? |
|
Me and my shadow |
|
We're closer than smog when it clings to l.a. |
|
We're closer than bobby is to j.f.k. |
|
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 |
|
Swing to the skies |
|
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 finished, we'll make the town roar |
|
We'll make all the late spots, and then a few more |
|
We'll wind up at jilly's right after toot's shore |
|
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! |
|
(here comes the party!) |
|
For my shadow and me! |
|
Say frank? |
|
What is it, sam? |
|
Do me a favor? |
|
What do you want, now? |
|
Would you mind taking it, just one more time? |
|
From the top? |
|
No! from the ending! |
|
Wonderful! |
|
And while we are swinging, to mention a few |
|
We'll drop in at danny's, the little club too |
|
But wind up at jilly's, whatever we do |
|
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! |
|
(wow!) |
|
For my shadow and me! |
|
Frank? |
|
Oh, forget it sam. |
