The Mildred Snitzer Orchestra - Me And My Shadow Lyrics

Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall
Like the seashore clings to the sea
Like you'll never get rid of your shadow, Sarah
Jeff, you'll never get rid of me (Good news!)

Let all the others fight and fuss
Whatever happens, we've got ours

We're closer than pages that stick in a book (Me and my shadow)
We're closer than ripples that play in a brook (Perfect)
(Walking down the avenue) Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look
Closer than a miser or the bloodhound's two eyes on me

Closer than smog is to all of L.A. (Me and my shadow)
We're closer than Bobby is to JFK
Not a soul can bust this team in two
We stick together like glue

And when it's sleeping time
That's when we're gonna rise
We'll start to swing
We're gonna swing to the skies
Our clocks don't chime
What a surprise
They ring-a-ding-ding!
Happy new year!

And now to repeat what I said at the start (Me and my)
They'll need a large crowbar to bust us apart (Sha-a-a-a-adow)
We're alone but far from blue

Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar
We'll change the name Redskins, 'cause that's such a chore
Then we'll tackle climate change, hats off to Al Gore
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
For my shadow and me

Hey, hey Sarah
Yes, Jeff? (Uhm, could you- could-)
Wait a minute
Tee doo ta tee tee dee
Till Brönner
Is that the best cover you've ever heard in your life?
It's like cutting butter with a hot knife
Yes, you phrase-maker
Well put
Hey,recently I've been keeping out my butter
Out at night so it's soft in the morning
Is that risky? I love soft butter
That's not risky, you can do that with butter, you can leave it out
Okay, I'm taking that to the bank
What was I gonna say? Oh oh oh, I know
Could you do me a favor, Sarah?
Yes, anything
Could we take it just one more time?
From the top?
No, from the ending, I love that ending!

Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar
We'll, just like Michael Corleone, we'll settle old scores!
Oh then we'll talk to the Tarot, and dress up like whores!
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
For my shadow and me!

In Jurassic Park
Scary in the dark
I am scared that I'll get eaten
Oh Sarah, don't be scared of that!
Purrrrr (gross!)

Sarah Silverman
Ladies and gentlemen, my god
A national treasure
International treasure
Cosmic treasure, my god
There she goes, there she goes
