Deadline

(Robert Palmer)

When I get aroused, I can make a headline
When you play it loud, I can feel the bass line
I only caught a glimpse, I only saw your outline
Loved you ever since, I fell for you from behind

Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again
Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again

Too much alcohol, couldn’t get your name right
Didn’t care at all, seein’ you in the daylight
When your daddy calls, I was on the breadline
Didn’t care at all, see you at the deadline

Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again
Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again

Say hello

I’ve been sold on a long lost love that will never die
I’ve been told it’ll die but I don’t know when

Don’t forget your goals, altering your hemline
No good for your soul, no good for your waistline
Looking in your heart, looking in your mind’s eye
Tear it all apart, watch the fashion fly by

Bah bah bah
Bah bah bah
Say hello
Bah bah bah
Bah bah bah
Say hello

Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again
Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again
Running round barefooted
Gonna catch you up again
