Amphlett's raw sexual energy gave the album the push it needed and the Divinyls were on their way to becoming a global hit.
Tracks and Lyrics
Now that you've started something
How can you see it through
Caught up and calling, falling through
Taken a certain something
That's fallen from our lives
Boy I can see it in your eyes
Do you know where you're going
Do you know where you go
There's no way of knowing
If you let him go
If there's soul where you're going
If there's soul let it show
I know where you go
You're gonna make out alright
Or break out alright
All that you wanted baby
Is right in front of you
Is my message getting through to you yeah, yeah
True communication
Is always hard to find
When you've left your words behind
Do you know where you're going
Do you know where you go
There's no way of knowing
If you let him go
If there's soul where you're going
If there's soul let it roll
I know where you go
You're gonna make out alright
Or break out alright
Make out alright, make out alright
Make out alright, make out alright
Do you know where you're going
Do you know where you go
Ther's now way of knowing
If you let him go
If there's soul where you're going
If there's soul let it roll
I know where you're going
You're gonna make out alright
Or break out alright
Make out alright, make out alright
Make out alright, make out alright
Make it in the morning
Make out all night
Make it, make it, make it
Make out alright
Make out alright
Make out alright
I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
Chorus:
I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no
You're the one who makes me come running
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine
I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you
Chorus
I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me
Chorus
I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah
Chorus
Mondays are a mystery
Tuesdays are alright
Wednesday's what I'm waiting for
Especially the night
Thursday are a tragedy
By Friday I'm uptight
Saturday I find myself
I'm the mistress of the night
No stranger to your fantasy
Lashings of a recipe
I'm whipping something up
That's just for you
Action's what I'm looking for
Action's what I like
You know what my name is
I'm the mistress of the night
Sometimes I dress in black
Sometimes I dress in white
Sometimes I dress so wicked
I give myself a fright
No stranger to your fantasy
Lashings of a recipe
I'm whipping something up
That's just for you oh yeah
Lay your body lay your body
Lay your body down
Lay your body lay your body
Lay your body down
No stranger to your fantasy
Lashings of a recipe
I'm whipping something up
That's just for you
Oh lay, oh lay
Oh lay
Your body next to mine
Lay your body down
Lay your body down
Sometimes I'm dressed in black
Lay your body down
Lay your body down
Sometimes I'm dressed in white
Lay your body down
Lay your body down
Sometimes I wear nothing at all
Sometimes I'm dressed in white
Lay your body down
Lay your body down
I get stormy
When things bore me
I get steamed up
When you ignore me
I don't need some bland sky
Staring back at me
I need a bad guy
I want some electricity
I need fire
I got sensual desire
That's what my body
And my nature
Does require
Oooh don't you be so cold
I need some body and soul
Yeah don't you be a fool
You need to go to the love school
Don't need your detachment
Waiting for the storm to pass
Don't need reenactment
Of things that have happened
In the past
I don't need some joker
Making fun at me
I need a lover
I want some sensitivity
I need fire
I got sensual desire
That's what my body
And my nature
Does require
Ooh don't you be so cold
I need some body and soul
Yeah don't you be a fool
You need to go to the love school
I need fire
I got sensual desire
That's what my body
And my nature
Does require
Chorus
I don't want anybody else
Because I don't want anybody else
Bless My Soul (It's Rock-n-Roll)
Hand me a prayer book
I need to be forgiven
I'm not even driving
I'm just being driven
I've got a burning fire in me
A potential for sin
Inspiration from the devil
I'm full of temptation
I've got affection for trouble
Hear the sirens scream
I want to go somewhere
Where I've never been
A whole lot of people
Hear my plea
If you got an emotion
You got to set it free
A whole lot of people
Hear my call
I tell you no lies
And that's all
Oh bless my soul it's rock n roll
There's no easy way down
It takes some time
It takes some time
It takes some time to be a hero
I'll show you how to do it
I'll show how it's done
You can't let people go
You got to make them come
Let the lightning strike
The thunder roll
Let me tell you buddy
That's rock n roll
A whole lot of people
Hear my plea
If you got an emotion
You got to set it free
A whole lot of people
Hear my call
I'll tell you no lies
And that's all
Oh bless my soul
It's rock n roll
Bless my soul
It's rock n roll
There's no easy way down
Bless my soul, it's rock n roll
Bless my soul, it's rock n roll
Cool headed one
Started out as fun
Now it's sealed and delivered
All that's left is one
Started out to work it all out
But I couldn't fit the shoes
Oh well hope there's an angel
Looking out and watching over you
If love was a gun
Wouldn't hurt more than it's done
No if love was a gun
If love was a gun oh yeah
Hot headed one
What's done is done
Now it's sealed and delivered
Mercy's on the run
Woke up this morning
I was all cleaned out
Lord I just wanted to cry
Oh well hope there's an angel
Looking out and watching over you
If love was a gun
Wouldn't hurt more than it's done
No if love was a gun
If love was a gun oh yeah
Angel, angel, angel oh yeah
Fast living one
Now the race is won
Things got hot as
The surface of the sun
No doubt we burnt it all out
Our summer's been and gone
Oh well hope there's an angel
Looking out and watching over you
If love was a gun
Wouldn't hurt more than it's done
No if love was a gun
Wouldn't hurt more than it's done yeah
If love was a gun
If love was a gun
Ooh yeah
I hope there's an angel
Watching over you
I hope there's an angel
Watching over you
I hope there's one
I hope there's two
I hope there's many
Watching over you
Tell me mirror mirror
Mirror on my wall
Who is the fairest
The fairest of them all
Tell me fortune teller
Look into your crystal ball
A love for me romantically
Tell me will I fall
For someone good looking
What's the color of his hair
Does he have a fortune
I really just don't care
If he needs the money
I'll gladly pay his fare
Summon him this very night
What style should I wear my hair
For my lover
I need a lover
Dearest fairy godmother
Please wave your magic wand
Please send me someone
To whom I can hold on
Genie in the bottle
Do you hear my plea
If you don't answer my call
I'll throw you in the sea
I rule my bed alone each night
What a poor state of affairs
Please send me someone
Please send me someone who really cares
Send me out a valentine in a puff of smoke
To curl around my body
Passionate feelings will evoke
Like a lover
I need a lover
A lover, a lover, a lover, a lover
Fantasy and phantasm
Whatever turns you on
Don't let your mother tell you
You're doing something wrong
I use any avenue
Of thoughts which I am fond
Oh how I wish someone would come along
And wave their magin wand
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Merlin in your castle
Cast me a spell
Conjure up some magic
That you do so well
Witches in your towers
Mix me a potion rare
Please use all your powers
For this maiden fair
High priestess of the voodoo
Please reverse this curse
That causes me to write to you
This long and lonely verse
I rule my be alone each night
What a poor state of affairs
Please send me someone
Who really cares
Like a lover
I need a lover
A lover, a lover, a lover, a lover
I need a lover
I am just a girl
Who thinks this life we lead
Our destiny we follow
One half of the world's asleep
One half's awake
That's all it takes to follow
The sun that rises up
Is also setting too
So make the most of it
Before it sets on you
Don't follow don't follow
Follow through
Even it's just this once
Follow through
I am just a girl
With thoughts unchained
There's nothing gained by sorrow
One half of the world's asleep
One half's awake
That's all it takes to wallow
This could be the start
Of a whole new shape
Of things to come
Don't leave it halfway through
Don't leave before it's done
Don't follow don't follow
Follow through
Even if it's just this once
Follow through
This could be the start
This could be the start
This could be the start
This could be the start
Of a whole new shape of things to come
Don't leave it halfway through
Don't leave before it's done
Don't follow don't follow
Follow through
The sun that rises up
Is also setting too
So make the most of it
Before it sets on you
Don't follow don't follow
Follow through
Even if it's just this once
Follow through
Follow, follow through
Follow, follow through
Cafe Interlude
(instrumental recorded by Jean LeRoc)
Some people say
Some people do
Some people say they do
What about you
Some people please
Some only tease
If you pull the trigger
You better be ready for me
Chorus:
I've been shot like a bullet from a gun
Your love's got me on the run
I've been shot like a bullet through the dark
You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake
No matter what you do
For my aim is ture
And I'm pointing straight at you
Baited words
On candied hooks
Making eyes and
Catching looks
Tender traps
That are laid so well
You got me somewhere
Between heaven & hell
Chorus
Some people lose
Some people win
Some people are never happy
Till they do it again
Chorus
Remember when we met
The way you made me laugh
How could I forget
I found my better half
But lately I've been feeling strong
And you've been falling behind
Oh tell me what went wrong
'Cos I can't read your mind
Chorus:
I'm on your side
Are you too blind to see
I'm on your side
You know I'm not the enemy
Don't push me away
There's nothing to hide
I won't betray you baby
I love you babe
I'm on your side
Remember how we kissed
The first time in the dark
Your lips were on my lips
Your heart was on my heart
But last night when you went to sleep
You turned your face to the wall
If you put your faith in me
I'll catch you when you fall
Chorus
Lately I've been feelng strong
And you've been falling behind
Oh tell me what went wrong
'Cos I can't read your mind
Chorus
I'll hold on to you
No matter what it is
You're going through babe
I love you babe
I love you babe
I love you babe
Chorus
