Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't be on that phone
with that dialling tone
Calling on your friends
cause their not alone

Don't be on that phone
its a danger zone
Calling round pretending
that your not not alone

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

(Ali)

Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't try this at home
or believe you me
Everything ain't true
you see on your tv

Are they friend or foe
or are they enemy
If seeings believing
i don't believe what I see

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

(Ali)

Don't try this at home
sitting all alone
Spending all your time
being on your own

Don't try this at home
As someone who knows
Trying to get high
Leads to lonely lows

Its bad to de bone
Its a no go zone
You don't notice that
It's as cold as stone

(Katie)

If your all alone
you can call on me
You can knock my door
for some company

If your all alone
fundamentaly
you ain't got nobody

As Ali Campbell came to the Donauinsel-festival this september I was there and waited for this song. I knew for sure that Katie wouldn't be there. So maybe he thought about singing it alone ... Without avail :? :?

I like UB 40 but I think that compared to the old songs like " I cant help falling in love with you" or "Red red wine" Ali Campbells voice sounds different now and not as good as earlier. I also see it at this song. I bought their current album and I didnt find it great.

Great tune and one of Katie's best duets. Should have been a (hit) single IMHO.

I second that 100%. It's a great and cool song. Makes you feel in vacation and it opened the doors to some new fans, not knowing Katie yet.

The only thing, I didn't like so much, is that it is too much echo in Katie's voice. They should have left it pure (as Mike does on Katie's albums)

My thought exactly, that's why it will rank low...
