We Go Together lyrics!


Had some time on my hands today, as my regular Saturday roleplaying game night was canceled, so what does one do in such straits? Why, transcribe the lyrics to We Go Together, of course!



We Go Together
(bonus track on the Much Ado About Nothing soundtrack)

Sung by Catherine Tate and David Tennant

[spoken]
Catherine: How long is this gonna take?
David: Here we go!
Catherine: Don't make me do this.
David: Oh, you're gonna love it!

[sung]
David: We're like a branch and its vine
Catherine: Like a drunk and his wine
David: Like the leaves and the breeze
Catherine: Fatty food and disease
David: And like a sheep and a lamb
Catherine: Like a pig and a ham
David: We go together --

[spoken]
Catherine: Can I go now? ...can I just...?

[sung]
David: Just like Shakespeare and verse
Catherine: Like a corpse and a hearse
David: Like a song and a dance
Catherine: Like the English and France
David: Like a Persian and rugs
Catherine: Like a headache and drugs
Both: We go together, you and I
David: We go together like the news and the weather
We fit like hand in glove
Catherine: For now and forever
David: Just like birds of a feather
We fly so high above
We stick together like the earth and the sun
Catherine: Like a dentist and fun
David: We go like honey and bees
Catherine: Like a mold on a cheese
David: And like a bird and its nest
Catherine: Like a clown and depressed
Both: We go together, you and I

[spoken]
David: Wait for it, wait for it!
[horn solo. At the end David stops and gasps for breath]
Catherine: *What* was THAT?!
David: That was me playing with my old horn!
Catherine: Oh. Shouldn't you wait 'til I've gone?
David: Ah, feels so good to hold it again!
Catherine: Well, you've not had it out in ages!
David: D'you want a go with it?
Catherine: I'm not putting that in my mouth!

[sung]
Catherine: We go together and we know that whatever
We're stuck like nails and glue
David: There's nothing can sever
Such a well-made endeavour as me --
Catherine: -- And me
David: -- And you
Catherine: I guess it's true
We're like a yawn and a dream
David: Like a cherry on cream
Catherine: Like the wind and a kite
David: Now you've got it, all right!
Catherine: We're like a parent and child!
David: Like a -- sorry, what?!
Catherine: We go together, you and I
David: You and me
Catherine: We go together, me and you
David: That's right, we do!
Both: We go together... you and I!

[spoken]
David: Ah! See, I told you you'd enjoy yourself!
Catherine: Yeah! ...It's smaller than I thought, though.
David: ...Are you still talking about my horn?
Catherine: Yup.

Thanks! I've been listening to this on my iPad off and on since I downloaded earlier this week from iTunes. Guaranteed smile!

And I can't stop singing "Sigh No More"... Love it! Even my little 5 year old has been singing it.

Aww, how cute! :-)

Re: Sigh No More, I actually still kind of prefer the way it was done in the 1993 film version. But this one might grow on me yet.

Thanks!

Here's hoping someone does a fanvid of this song with clips of Ten and Donna. (I'm not equipped, or I'd do it.)

I think [info]sunsea posted one a day or two ago. I can't link to it from here, but I think she posted at [info]doctor_donna.

Hmm... nice, but not what I had in mind. If I were doing one, I'd leave out the clips of talk shows with people talking over the song. And they cut out way too much. :-P

I might end up doing one of my "songspams". Haven't done one in a while.

But thanks anyway!

*giggle*

Okay... now I have to get that soundtrack! Those lyrics are so David and Catherine.

Thanks for this!

No problem, I like doing stuff like this on occasion!

The soundtrack is on iTunes. There was also a download link in a post on tennant_love, but the post has seemingly been deleted (probably because they forgot to lock it). Don't know if there are any other avenues as of yet, other than the fact that this song and another bonus track, Sigh No More (also with David and Catherine singing) are both on Youtube.

David has such a lovely singing voice. He should do it more.

He doesn't do badly, when he tries, does he? :-)

As if I need another reason to drool over him.

I'm laughing just from reading the lyrics! I need to look for this on Youtube. Thank you :)

My post before this one (or maybe two posts ago?) has the Youtube link.

Oh, so it came from you! Someone posted the lyrics in our German forum. It's always helpful to have something like that when you are not a native speaker. Thank you!

Saw the play twice three weeks ago and would like to go back so badly... I'll by the CD to show that we do have interest in whatever they give us - hopefully a DVD as well!

A DVD would be the best I could hope for, since I can't get over to the UK to see it on stage. (They don't have to film it like a movie, as they did for Hamlet; they could just tape a regular performance of the play, and I'd be happy with that.)

Anyway, I just did this for fun; I never considered that this might actually be helpful to anybody. So that's really good to know! :-)

Not sure if this would make you more jealous, but if you are happy to see some more pictures of the theatre and the stage door from when we were there (plus my autographs and picture with David), go here: http://dieastra.livejournal.com/29928.html

I seriously doubt that they will just film the play, though. I once read that this is just not possible, as there is no room for the cameras, plus they would be blocking people's view. And they can't film it without audience, as then there would be no laughter.

I really liked that turning stage though, which shone in the scene where David was hiding (and covering himself with paint), it turned all the time and one time you saw the front and one time the back of the columns, and the actors were moving all the time.

Then again, I heard rumours that they might film it to show in cinemas, as apparently they do with theatre plays nowadays? Not long ago they showed one with Benedict Cumberbatch in a German cinema, sorry, I mean movie theatre ;)

And yes, lyrics and subtitles are indeed very helpful, as I can understand things much better when I can read them, instead of only listening. The day I discovered that there are actually subtitle files in the internet for the new Doctor Who or Torchwood episodes, was a good day.

In between my first and second watching of MAAN, I bought the script and read it and it also helped a lot with those Shakespearan sentences (even though I always knew of course what was going on on stage)
