Al Jolson - Me and My Shadow lyrics

ANTONIO, spoken: Well, here we are, Miguel MICHAEL, spoken: Looking good. Do you want to start us off? ANTONIO, spoken: Absolutely! [A. BANDERAS] Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall [M. BALL] Like the seashore clings to the sea [A. BANDERAS] Like you'll never get rid of your shadow, boy You'll never get rid of me [BOTH] Let all the others fight and fuss Whatever happens, we've got ours [M. BALL] Me and my shadow [A. BANDERAS] 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 bloodhounds to Liza We're closer than smog when it clings to LA We're closer than Julio to MDK Me and my shadow [BOTH] Not a soul can bust this team in two We stick together like glue [M. BALL] And when it's sleeping time [A. BANDERAS] That's when we rise [M. BALL] We start to swing [A. BANDERAS] Swing to the skies [M. BALL] Our clocks don't chime [A. BANDERAS] What a surprise [BOTH] They just ring-a-ding-ding! Happy New Year! [M. BALL] Me and my shadow [A. BANDERAS] And now to repeat what I said at the start They'll need a big crowbar to break us apart [BOTH] 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 fly to Cannes where (?) Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! For my shadow and me! ANTONIO, spoken: Miguel, Miguel! MICHAEL, spoken: What is it, mate? ANTONIO, spoken: Do me a favor? MICHAEL, spoken: What do you want now? ANTONIO, spoken: Do you mind taking it just one more time? MICHAEL, spoken: From the top? ANTONIO, spoken: Yes, but this time in Spanish! MICHAEL, spoken: Oh, perfecto! [BOTH] Ante este final la ciudad estallará Daremos la nota por aquí y allá Iremos a Cannes sólo para triunfar Nuestra vida será un gran festín Para mí, mi sombra a mí
