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’m wondering 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 *issues* And things that I just don’t understand Like a white lie that night Or a slight 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 candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed
You know I hate to ask But, are `friends’ electric? Mine’s broke down And now I’ve no one to love
So I find out your reason For the phone calls and smiles And it hurts And I’m lonely And I should never have tried And I missed you tonight So it’s time to leave You see this means everything to me
Please let us know if you spot any mistakes in Are ’friends’ Electric? lyrics or any other Gary Numan lyrics
