me and my friends
unreleased

Me and my band put the music on to dance
Don't know the time of the day
Oh, yeah, we'd be a pain in the neck
If we couldn't get down and -- twist
'Cos it depends upon a [greater surround?]
Everything's going to get [sound?]
Me and my band are putting it down, putting it down in the ground

Taking it easy I can play it
Play it till I'm blue in the face
Just goes to show you need a [bass and a skin?]
If you want to get a play
I really believe, you can be -- come on -- funky cooking, cooking I mean
Me and my band are putting it down, putting it down in the ground

Me and my band put the music on to dance
Don't know the time of the day.
Oh, yeah, we'd be a pain in the neck
If we couldn't get down and -- play
'Cos it depends upon the [greatest surround?]
Everything going to get a bunk
Me and my band are putting it down
putting it down in the ground

Yearning, we were yearning
Green light blinding on the rail
Burning, we were burning
And the line unwinding to the Holy Grail
To the future gleaming on a blue horizon
And a golden girl on golden sand
Dreaming, fantasizing
In another world from Metroland

I've danced in rain and I've been Django
And I've got laid
I've been a rolling stone
I've been Verlaine
And I've been Rimbaud
Not afraid to walk alone
And now I take my midnight ramble
Do I fold or play what's in my hand
What's at stake and what's the gamble
Do I stay in Metroland

Dreams, yesterday's laughter
Ghosts and lovers come back to play
But dreams have a morning after
And run for cover
In the light of day
I got something real, worth holding on to
I can belong to and understand
I've made my deal
I will go on to
Make my peace with Metroland
