Are 'Friends' Electric?
Gary Numan
It's cold outside And the paint's peeling off of my walls There's a man outside In a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette Now the light fades out And I wonder what I'm doing In a room like this There's a knock on the door And just for a second I thought I remembered you So now I'm alone Now I can think for myself About little deals And S.U's And things that I just don't understand A white lie that night Or a sly touch at times I don't think it meant anything to you So I open the door It's the 'friend' that I'd left in the hallway 'Please sit down' A candlelit shadow on a wall near the bed You know I hate to ask But are 'friends' electric? Only mine's broke down And now I've no-one to love So I found out your reasons For the phone calls and smiles And it hurts And I'm lonely And I should never have tried And I missed you tonight It must be time to leave You see it meant everything to me80s ace alternative alternative top and this is gary numan blade runner british chill outs dance dance top dancing Dream Dance dydrahofaphenoxamyn favourites dystopia eighties electro electronic electronica flya 80s flya alternative flya alternative eighties flya alternative wave Flya Electronica flya electronica groove flya overall geek music glorious tracks happy hard rock hba radio Inthestack kenny everett classics malloy2000 playlist - top song Masterpiece Miscellaneous MMS new wave olspur olspur hi hi hi radio olspur hi hi radio One post-punk precursors of electronica reasons to love 80s rock sarahs music silent inanity silent intensity songs that i will still be lis synth-pop synthpop takes me back teenage obsession The 80s was not a dead decade top artists top song radio virgin2005top500
