Blondie - Accidents Never Happen - lyrics

No, I dont believe in luck.
No, I dont believe in circumstance no more.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world, so I wont believe in luck.
I saw you walking in the dark, so I slipped behind your footsteps for a while.
Caught you turning round the block...
Fancy meeting in a smaller world.
After all, accidents never happen.
Could have planned it all.
Precognition in my ears.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world.
Complications disappear.
Now you love me.
I, yeah, I can tell.
I never lied.
I never cried.
And you, you knew so well.
Like the magi on the hill, I can divinate your presence from afar.
And Ill follow you until I can bring you to a perfect world.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world.
Accidents never happen.

Blondie - Picture This - lyrics

Now we're gonna do something new for ya, it's called "picture this".
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, oh...
I will give you my finest hour, the one i spent watching you shower.
I will give you my finest hour, oh, yeah.
All i want is a photo in my wallet.
A small remembrance of something more solid.
All i want is a picture of you.
Picture this - a day in december.
Picture this - freezing 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 oh ooh whoa...
Picture this - a sky full of thunder.
Picture this - my telephone number.
One and one is what i'm telling you, oh, yeah.
All i want is 20/20 vision.
A total portrait with no omissions.
All i want is a vision of you, oh...
If you could...
Picture this - a day in december.
Picture this - freezing 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 oh ooh whoa...
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, yeah.
Ok.

Blondie - Background Melody (The Only One) - lyrics

i know what i'm made of
by what's inside of me
maybe science, maybe giants
maybe just a mystery
maybe the mother of invention
is really intensity
and baby when they made you
i was the background melody
a partner to the feeling
now you're a part of me
so be the only one who cares
the only one who dares
the only one who sees
the only one who dreams
be the only one who tries
the only one who cries
be the only one for me, for me
don't think i'm fantasizing
i didn't make it up
lots of people tell me things
things about their love
how the music that was playing low
how they made you in the afterglow
i didn't see em do the body rock
i didn't feel the after shocks
but baby when they made you
i was the background melody
so be the only one who cares
the only one who dares
the only one to dance
the one who takes a chance
be the only one who's real
the only one who feels
be the only one who loves
you may think i'm egocentric
but i'm only centered some of the time
i want you to remember
i wanna be the tune you can't get out of your mind
i wasn't there to see the pressure drop
i didn't do the momma and pop
baby when they made you i was the background melody
was it the lady or the tiger
who was the bottom who was the top
oh baby when they made you i was the background melody
so be the only one who cares
the only one who dares
the only one who sees
the only one who dreams
be the only one who tries
the only one who cries
be the only one for me, for me

Blondie - Oasis - lyrics

How many times have you heard, how many times did you say
I think Im going crazy! youre driving me out of my mind!?
We know its just an expression, a silly little phrase.
Not the doorbell, not a bird call .
Koo koo.
How do you drive someone crazy?
To where?
In what kind of car?
Maybe we find a road map.
Im sure its not very far.
We know its not so serious.
We take it all in fun.
Answer the ding dong, do you play ping pong?
Could you?
Trying to get your attention.
Did someone say earths calling you?
Dont say it, dont ever mention, youre hearing more voices than two.
Roasted or raw delicious!
Freeze dried or salted divine!
Was that a...
Are you a...
Are you?
Storms have rearranged the sand millions of years up til now.
Crusaders on a never ending search die for a never ending thirst.
What a fine perforformance, oasis!
Well worth the standing ovation.
Not a mirage.
Not camoflouge to you.

Blondie - Backfired - lyrics

Backfired. your plan, your plan backfired.
Backfired. my man, your plan backfired in your face.
You came into my life to test me.
Your diplomatic drag depressed me.
The glitter in your eyes undressed me.
You were polished slick. really thick.
Wasting time dropping lines like I could get you into movies.
But we would up at hojos for hamburgers to go!
Backfired. your plan backfired.
Backfired. my man, your plan backfired in your face.
To steal my mind was your objective.
The way you spoke was too aggresive.
The silly jokes were not impressive.
Like a traveling salesman met..., farmer with three daughters, yet!
All the quips were so suggestive.
Then we ran down to hojos for hamburgers to go!
Backfired. your plan backfired.
Backfired. my man, your plan backfired in your face.
Well, come here my little dear, Ive got what it takes.
Give me just what I want and Ill give you a break.
Well, dont slip on your lips cuz youre talking so fast.
Buying for first, crying for last.
Well come on my little lady, dont shoot me down.
Ive got strong connections all over town.
Just drop to a dead stop.
What?
Backfired. your plan backfired.
Backfired. my man, your plan backfired in your face.
You were polished slick. really thick.
Wasting time dropping lines.
Backfired.
A traveling salesman met..., a farmer with three daughters, yet!
Backfired.
Backfired.
Your plan backfired.
Couldnt work out no...
Backfired.
My man, your plan backfired in your face.
It backfired.
Backfired.
Your plan just backfired.
Oh no, it couldnt work out, backfired.
Better get a new line and try it again.
Slick performance on demand.
Backfired.
You better back up fast and head out west.
You may still collect.
Backfired.
It backfired.
Your plan backfired.
Too bad...
Backfired.
My man, your plan backfired.
Well, come here my little dear, Ive got what it takes.
Give me just what I want and Ill give you a break.
Well, dont slip on your lips cuz youre talking so fast.
Buying for first, crying for last.
Well come on my little lady, dont shoot me down.
Ive got strong connections all over town.
Just drop to a dead stop.

Blondie - Angel Eyes - lyrics

So drink up all you people.
Order, order anything you please.
Have fun, all you happy people.
The drinks, and the laughs, on me.
Pardon me, hehe, but I gotta run.
The facts uncommonly clear.
I gotta find whos my number one and why my angel eyes aint here.
scuse me while I disappear.

Blondie - A Shark In Jet's Clothing - lyrics

I always had my eyes on you but you came from across the line.
I had to make good time to see you but you had to pay the fine.
All the boys on my side knew that you were the shark.
If you were found on the borderline youd be shot in the dark.
Dont wear those clothes again, they dont make it in this crowd.
Dont go out d.t.k., youll wear your best suit in the ground.
Were meeting in a neutral zone: the last car on the train.
The love you brought shaking up my bones and crawling through our veins.
We always met at the edge of a blade and we left at the end of the fight.
Of all the girls youve played and you laid why did this one have to be white?
Theyre gonna getcha at 12 oclock high, got their sights set low on you.
You better believe me, I wouldnt lie.
We better quit before youre through!
Theyre gonna getcha at 12 oclock high, got their sights set low on you.
You better believe me, I wouldnt lie.
We better quit before youre through!

Blondie - Faces - lyrics

Faces cracked for reason beyond recognition.
His space is at the palace.
He sleeps for twenty five cents.
Now hes wiping headlights, windshields with an old rag.
It aint nine to five.
Down and dirty, hes an old tramp.
He poses like a dead man.
The night train passes by. moneys not the answer for princes and dancers.
Hes standing under street lights.
Hes thinking of his old life.
He lost his pretty young wife.
The corner is his big plan.
His brunch with jim and jitters.
Boston blue laws aint for shitters.
And newsprint is for cheaters.
Cement mattress for believers.
Now hes shooting power curves.
His buddies think hes got some nerve.
Missus face had other lovers.
Her arms smothered other numbers.
He freezes.
Christmas season, all saints protect him.
His face is cracked for reason beyond recognition.

Blondie - (I'm Always Touched By Your) Presence Dear - lyrics

I'm on E
I'm on E
I'm on E
Got nuts' to say
I used to have a car of my own
I'm on E
I'm on E
I'm on E for easy
Laid out for maybe a week
I've walked my feet to the bone
I'd give my life for a car of my own
I'm on E
I'm on E
Two weeks ago saturday I was on TV
I'd like a show of my own
But you see I'm still on E
Even though everything is happening to me
So when your drivin' on home, don't regret your loan
I'm on E
I'm on E
I gave my car to a guy named Vinnie
I feel like gassin' my feet
They've totalled your bill and you skipped a beat
I used to have a car of my own
28 or 58
Walking to refrigerator
To the pump do the bump
Still on E I'll think of something
I'm on E and I'm on E
I'll never have to stop my feet
28 or 58
Walking to refrigerator
To the pump do the bump
Still on E I'll think of something
I'm on E and I'm on E
I'll never have to fill my feet up

Blondie - 11:59 - lyrics

Leaning in your corner like a candidate for wax.
Sidewalk social scientist don't get no satisfaction from your cigarette.
It's ten to ten.
Time is running out.
Take me down the highway like a rocket to the ocean.
We can run.
Today can last another million years.
Today could be the end of me.
It's 11:59 and i want to stay alive.
Pumping like a fugitive in cover from the night.
Take it down the freeway like a bullet to the ocean.
Wait until the morning, take tomorrow by the hand.
Take it down the highway like a rocket to the ocean.
We can run.
Today can last another million years.
Today could be the end of me.
