Lyrics Peter Frampton

Peter Frampton

The Lodger

One step two step, close the door

All my records are on the floor

No time to myself it seems

People in my lounge hangin' from the beams

Enough time to think cause the phone isn't ringin'

Can't you see my guitar needs stringin'

Then I'll play the songs I should be singin'

Then I'll play the songs I should be singin'

One step two step, find the light

All too late, anyway it was too bright

Your beds too hard, well please use ours

I've always wanted to know how to sleep in cars

Don't be silly, it can get chilly

We'll take a drive around picadilly

All I need is time to put my clothes on

All I ask is time to put my clothes on

One step two step, who's your friend

Yes our car is the one at the end

'Cause it's gone to far, we've seen it all drawing lots

I feel like a platform dream, now the dog has been really shot

It'll all change for the midnight movie

Grab my hand, cause you might lose me

In the rush of those who try to use me

Now in the rush of those who try to use me

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
