Are Friends Electric (Gary Numan Cover) Lyrics
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
you know, I hate to ask, but are my friends electric?
so I open the door
it's the friend that I'd left in the hallway
I said: "please sit down"
a candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed
you know, I hate to ask, but are friends electric?
only much broke down, down, down, down, down
and now I've no one to love
you know, I hate to ask, but are friends electric?
there's a man outside in a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigarette
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
it's the friend that I'd left in the hallway
I said: "please sit down"
a candle lit a shadow on a wall near the bed
only much broke down, down, down, down, down
and now I've no one to love

What is it she says between the first 'Are my friends electric' and 'So I open the door'?
Great song, by the way. No idea what it means.
