(Spoken:)
(Robbie Williams:)
Johnny and Robbie
(Jonathon Wilkes:)
What you talking like that for
You're from Stoke

(Robbie Williams:)
I dunno but
I can't stop here pally

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

(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 LA
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 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 show
Life is gonna be
We-wow-whee
For my shadow and me

(Spoken:)
(Jonathon Wilkes:)
Can we do that again?

(Robbie Williams:)
No, I'm too tired

(Jonathon Wilkes:)
Please Rob

(Robbie Williams:)
No, I'm swung out

(Jonathon Wilkes:)
I'll give you some money

(Robbie Williams:)
I don't need money

(Jonathon Wilkes:)
What about a cup of tea?

(Robbie Williams:)
Not thirsty

(Jonathon Wilkes:)
I'll won't tell anyone
You're gay

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 show
Life is gonna be
We-wow-whee
For my shadow and me
