Me And My Mate Can Sing

When the show stops in your dressing room

Wonder who these people are

Two little girls are standing by the doorway

Aren't you glad you're a star

They say that they're going to London

They say that the boys down here are not their cup of tea

They say that they're not like the other girls

Although they giggle, you think they'd go back to the hotel



Me and my mate can sing - we're not staying here forever

Me and my mate can sing - we're not waiting for the rest to catch up

And if not this time then the next time

And if not your band, some other band where we can sing



We don't need your names on bits of paper

Got a couple of our own

Well we won't say no to a bit of floor space

I think we've missed the last bus home

They say that they've had it with college

They say that they just try and stop you being who you are

They're not really liked by the other girls

Like Patti said they got something to hide here called Desire



Me and my mate can sing - There's gotta be something better than this

Me and my mate can sing - Get married isn't our idea of fun

And if not this time then the next time

And if not your band, some other band where we can sing



Me and, me and my, me and my mate can sing

(I said that) me and my, me and my mate can sing

I said that me and my mate can...
