[Verse 1]
One step, two step, close the door
All my records are on the floor
No time to myself it seems
People in my lounge hanging from the beams

[Verse 2]
No time to think because the phone is ringing
Can't you see my guitar needs stringing
Then I'll play the songs I should be singing
Then I'll play the songs I should be singing

[Verse 3]
One step, two step, mind the light
Oh too late, anyway it was too bright
Your bed's too hard, well please use ours
I've always wanted to know how to sleep in cars

[Verse 4]
Don't be silly, it can't get chilly
We'll take a drive around Piccadilly
All I need is time to put my clothes on
All I ask is time to put my clothes on

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
One step, two step, who's your friend?
Yes of course, use the one at the end
Because it's gone too far, we've started drawing lots
I feel like a platform tree, now the doc has give me shot

[Verse 6]
Now all change for the midnight movie
Grab my hand cause you might lose me
In the rush for those who try to use me
Now in the rush for those who try to use me
Yeah, yeah, no no no no

Peter Kenneth Frampton was the founding guitarist of supergroup Humble Pie, but is most famous for the success that followed his solo live album, Frampton Comes Alive!, which exploited the relatively unknown talkbox guitar effect to create a unique sound that became strongly associated with Frampton himself.

Frampton was something of a musical prodigy, getting his start in the English pop band The Herd when he was 16. The Herd had several hits in the UK, before Frampton joined with other pop stars to form Humble Pie.
