Paroles de Are friends electric?

It's cold outside
And the paint's peeling off of my walls
There's a man outside
In a long coat, gray 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?
