Blondie Album

She's an underground girl in her underground world.
She never comes around, she stays underground.
Ask her what's her trip, she just bites her lip.
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground.
She's the girl who's always right.
She's the one who gets uptight.
Ask her how she's been, she'll give you some skin.
Well, hey! Everybody gonna follow her down.
Well, hey! Everybody's gonna go underground.
Well, hey! Everybody wants to be on her side.
No one's around she's gonna take you for a ride. (?)
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground.
Oh, I don't wanna brag, but I know her bag.
Ask her were she's from, she's always playing dumb.
If you beat her with a whip, she just thinks it's hip.
You can see her at night, never in the light.
Here we go!
Where are we going?
I don't know.
Whoa, it's getting dark down here!
We're going way far down.
I think it's getting too deep.
I need quaaludes!
My legs are shaking!

When I was 17
I saw a magazine
It had those English Boys
Who had long hair
When I was on my own
They moved into my town
And I just called 'em up
And they'd be there

In 1969
I had a lousy time
I listened to the songs
Read letters sent from Nam

Now peace and love were gone
The tired soldiers home
Ideal society
Gunned down the 70s

Does it feel the same to you?
Why do you act the way you do?
Pack it up or pack it in
There's no excuse

Could the hands of time reverse?
Would we wake or take the ride
And again speak with one voice?

We knew each other well
Although we never met
Messages passed to tell
Equal respect

Coincidence recurred
I had to laugh a lot
One week hung up superb
Said maybe not

Does it feel the same to you?
Why do you act the way you do?
Pack it up or pack it in
There's no excuse

Could the hands of time reverse?
Would we wake or take the ride
And again speak with one voice?

Je connais une fille dans une rue deserte
Froide comme glace mais tout aussi sucre
Seches tes pleurs Sunday Girl
Hey, je vous r'connais avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Peux-t'cacher, Sunday Girl
Depeches-toi, depeches-toi et attends
Toutes les s'maines absends et pourtant j'attend
J'ai le coeur tendre, je t'en pris vient voir
Ce qu'il y a dand l'amour
Est present pour moi
Elle ne peut, s'en tirer au monde ouvrier
Dans deux week-ends elle sortira feter
Quand elle reve, Sunday Girl
Maintenant, moi je sortirer bien se soir
Toi et moi, mes parents vont flipper
Restes chex toi Sunday Girl
Hé , j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Cours te cacher Sunday Girl
Quand je t'ai revu l'é té
J'ai dé cidé si ton amour é tait pareil au mien
Je pourrais ê tre Sunday Girl
Dé pê che-toi, dé pê che-toi et attends
Toute la semaine absent et pourtant j'attends
J'ai le cafard, je t'en prie viens voir ce que ton amour repré sente pour moi
I got the Blues
Oh depeches-toi
Depeches-toi
Moi j'attend
Oh depeches-toi
I got the Blues

Even though Jeff was worried
They weren't in a hurry
They planned a lovely honeymoon
Sue had a brand new Chevy
Conservative, in good taste
Only 30 payments due
They had outstanding tickets
They had no car insurance
But they had lots of things to do
They were getting organised
They had their plans all finalised
The date was set for Saturday

Susie and Jeffrey, they're gonna get married
They're going for a blood test

What if I don't pass my blood test?
What about our marriage licence?
What if I can't be deprogrammed?
Don't act like it's your last chance
We could have fun at the Spahn Ranch.
It's not like Gordon Avenue

Susie and Jeffrey, they're gonna get married
They're going for a blood test
Jeffrey said "Let's wait"
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove into a wall

Don't get excited, now don't shout!
I'll scratch your eyes out
Now we can't have our honeymoon!"
Don't touch she's my fiance!
Say, but I like the way you play
An autograph from Orson Welles

I'm a fan, here's my record
It's one we can't get programmed
We want to give to all of you
They had a little argument
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove the car into a wall
They had a little argument
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove the car into a wall
They had a disagreement
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove the car into a wall

Shayla worked in a factory
She wasn't history. She's just a number
One day she gets her final pay
And she goes far away
Green trees call to me
I am free but life is so cheap
Scenery is still outside of me
All alone, trapped by its beauty

Shayla turned to run away
To leave in peace and end her stay
Years of fear were in her way
Lost in space and down she came

Suddenly some subtle entity
Some cosmic energy brushed her like shadows
Down here we stop to wonder
Cars on the freeway. Bright lights and thunder

Oh Denis ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you
Denis, ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you
Denis, ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you

Denis, Denis oh with your eyes so blue
Denis, Denis, I've got a crush on you
Denis, Denis, I'm so in love with you

Oh when we walk it always feels so nice
And when we talk it seems like paradise
Denis, Denis, I'm so in love with you

You're my king and I'm in heaven every time I look at you
When you smile it's like a dream
And I'm so lucky, 'cause I found a boy like you

Denis, Denis, avec tes yeux si bleus
Denis, Denis, Quand j'ai peche' pour deux
Denis, Denis, Pour un baiser d'eternite'
Denis, Denis, Je suis folle de toi
Denis, Denis, Embrasse moi ce soir
Denis, Denis, Pour un baiser d'eternite

Oh Denis, ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you
Denis, ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you
Denis, ooh-be-do, I'm in love with you

I saw you standing on the corner
You looked so big and fine
I really wanted to go out with you
So when you smiled
I laid my heart on the line

You read me my rights
And then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights and how they were
They were filled with

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh

We sat in the night
With my hands cuffed at my side
I looked at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh

Walking the line
You were a marksman
Told me that law like wine is ageless
Public ... defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender

I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh

My vision in blue
I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial you are there
With your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time
How I'm going to perpetrate love with you
And when I get out
There's no doubt
I'll be a sex offender to you

Poets problem, patron saint
Puts me in the place I’m in
Passions letter
Poison Pen
On these two things I can depend
Who will write your number on the wall?
I will not be there, when you call
I think I’ll do a line and then again
Dirty dealers, school of thought
And armchair for the strength of thought
The TV sets been on all night
You were wrong and I was right
You will write your number on the wall
I will not be there when you call
I think I’ll do a line and then again
Who will write your number on the wall?
I will not be there, when you call
You will write your number on the wall
I will not be there when you call
I think I’ll do a line and then again

We took too long to park the car. Ran across the street into the bar. Your face said it was four o'clock. I closed my eyes and hear a shot. The traffic lights were much too hot. I walked my eyes around the block. Purple shadows were so thin. I had to close my eyes again. I didn't know they were important to you. I thought their faces were a poster. Natural things, scenery. You showed me your kind of madness. Saw sound slipping silently. Time passenger to future shock. I closed my eyes and saw you drop

All I want is a room with a view
a sight worth seeing
a vision of you
All I want is a room with a view

I will give you my finest hour
the one I spent
watching you shower
I will give you my finest hour

All I want is a photo in my wallet
a small rememberance
of something more solid
all I want is a picture of you

Picture this - a day in December
Picture this - feezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids if it
weren't for your job at the garage
if you could only,
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and One is what I'm telling you

All I want is 20-20 vision
a total portrait
with no omissions
All I want is a vision of you

If you can...

Picture this - a day in December
Picture this - feezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids if it
weren't for your job at the garage
if you could only,
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and One is what I'm telling you

get a pocket computer
try to do what ya used to do.

Afterglow in a distant row
The door is open and the lights are cold
The children come in here and they dare the ghost
Like a fire burning in a stone
Ah
Silent light in the theatre's sky
Phantom cigarette and a silent cry
The door swings open and it's cold outside
Run and hide, run and hide
Ah, ah

They can still see him singing on the corner singing songs
That never fade away, fade into the kids that come along

Memory in a silent seat
Melody on a long retreat
Like an angel on a balcony
Like an angel on a balcony
Ah, ah, ah, ah

Once I had a love and it was a gas,
Soon turned out to be a thing of the past
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
Seemed like the real thing, but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

In between, what I find is pleasing and I'm feeling fine,
love is so confusing there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you
It's just no good, you teasing like you do

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out out I had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

Lost inside
Adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We coulda made it cruising, yeah

Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light

Once I had a love and it was gas
Soon turned out, to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind

You're gonna say you miss me
You're gonna say you'll kiss me
You're gonna say you love me
And I'm gonna love you too

I don't care what you told me
You're gonna say you'll hold me
You're gonna say you'll love me
Cause I'm gonna love you too

After all another fella took ya but I still can't overlook ya
I'm gonna do my best to hook ya
After all is said and done

I don't care what you told me
You're gonna say how you'll hold me
And you're gonna say you love me
Cause I'm gonna love you too

You're gonna tell me sweet things
You're gonna make my heart sing
And I'm gonna hear bells ring
Cause I'm gonna love you too

You're gonna say you'll kiss me
You're gonna say you'll miss me
You're gonna say you'll love me
Cause I'm gonna love you too

In Babylon
On the boulevard of broken dreams
My will power at the lowest ebb
Oh what can I do?
Oh buccaneer
Can ya help me put my truck in gear?
Can ya take me far away from here?
Save my soul from sin?

You wanna get away you've had it man
Nothing's going right
So come sit on the sands of the island
Island of Lost Souls

No luxuries, no no amenities
Too dull, your senses
Oh oh only primitive
"Hey hey really get away," is what he said

Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him
Where can he be?
He's not with me
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?

The sky is blue the sea is warm and clear
And golden sands are calling out to you inviting
Make a new man outa you

You can come for a while come with a friend
Forget about work start all over again
Let the real you through, here's what we do

Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him
Where can he be?
He's not with me
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?

No luxuries, no no amenities
Too dull, your senses
Oh oh only primitive
Hey hey really get away
Island of Lost Souls

Ayya ayya ayya Island of Lost Souls

Mucho mistrust.

In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine", love is so confusing.
There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you.
It's just no good, you teasing like you do.

Love is a burning thing
It makes a fire ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into, a ring of fire
Taste, my love sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child


Ohh, the fire went wild
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
The flame swept higher
And it burns, burns, burns
That ring of fire, that ring of fire

Well you're dirty and sweet
Clad in Black
Don't look back
And I love you
You're dirty and sweet oh yeah.
Well you're slim and you're weak
You got the teeth
Of the Hydra upon you.
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl.
Get It On
Bang a gong
Get It On You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a car


Oh yeah.
You're an untamed youth
That's the truth
With your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl
Well you're windy and wild
You got the blues
I'm your shoes and your stockings.
You're windy and wild
Oh yeah.
Oh take me
These boots were made for walking
And that's just what they'll do
Oh you're still, pretty good

I, I will be Queen
And you, you will be King
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them just for one day
We can be heroes just for one day

And you, you can be new
And I, I'll drag you all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes, we're lovers, and that is that
Though nothing will keep us together
We can steal time just for one day
We can be heroes forever and ever
What do you say

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes just for one day

I, I would be Queen
And you, you would be King
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be honest just for one day

I, I remember (I remember)
Standing by the wall (by the wall)
The guns shot above our heads (above our heads)
And we kissed as though nothing could fall
(Nothing could fall)
And the shame was on the other side
Oh, we can beat them forever and ever
Then we can be heroes just for one day

We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
Just for one day
