"If You Leave Me, Can I Come Too?" is a song by Australian band Mental As Anything, released in May 1981 as the lead single from their third studio album Cats & Dogs. The song peaked at number 4 on the Kent Music Report.[1]
At the 1981 Countdown Music Awards, the song won Best Australian Single.[2]
Junkee Media described it as, "a gonzo anti-break-up song with a melody line as big and gaudy as one of Jeff Koons' flower dogs, is a cartoon in and of itself. It’s the kind of thing you'd expect to see scribbled on the side of a wall, rather than playing on the radio. And that's its genius."[3]
