Show Me lyrics - Deep Purple

Come on baby

Don't be shy

Show me, what you got there

What you got behind your back and why you're doing that

You really think you know me, are you lead free?

Well that's taken off the shine

Have you lost your freaking mind

Come on and show me

Take it easy

Before you fall into a trap and then sumpt'ns going splat

Or we could negotiate

I could raise my hat

And, baby, what you think of that?

You're on a hiding all for nothing

We're not going anywhere

Until you give a little something

If you want me, really want me

And you're putting on the pressure

Got your fingers on the treasure

You could hit me

Hmm

Knock me down with a feather

It's partic'ly nasty weather

If you take me, then you shake me

Take me down to the cleaners

There'll be nothing left between us

I could stop you in a heartbeat

That'll be appealing

'Cause I love to hear you squealing

Depends on what you're thinking

How far you want to go

Will you swim or are you sinking

It's another way of saying

You have to keep this to yourself

You never know who might be listening

And think we're up to something else

I hope you know just what you're doing

I hope you get what you desire

It all depends on what you're thinking

Will you swim or are you sinking

A Bit On The Side lyrics - Deep Purple

You just arrived in the city, Charlene

Now you're working the underground scene

You've been getting bolder

Now you're leaning on my shoulder

I can guess how you want things to be

Climbing up this old money tree

Well, that won't do it for you or me

No, no

I don't want no left or right

I want up-n-down

And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

Well, it's none of my business, Charlene

Though I couldn't help but notice, my darlin'

The make-up don't quite cover up the early evening shadow

On your enigmatic jawline, Charlene

I have to say it's all right by me

I don't care which way you lean

But I don't want no left or right

I want front-n-back

And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

It made me pause to consider, Charlene

You may not be much different to me

You got to earn a living

With the tools that you were given

Don't we all?

If you see what I mean

Everybody follows a dream

But to beat the street, huh... we've got to eat, or so it seems

I don't want no left or right

I want in-n-out

And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

I have to say it's all right by me

I don't care which way you lean

To beat the street, huh... we've got to eat, or so it seems

I don't want no left or right

I want in-n-out

Back-n-front

Up-n-down

Oh, oh

And a little bit o' lovin' on the side

Sharp Shooter lyrics - Deep Purple

You're just another sharp shooter, got your finger on the trigger

You're aiming at this big head of mine

And from there you can't miss, the only trouble is I have to put you, put you in line

Take a shot in the dark, oh yeah

It's just a walk in the park

Oh, you're my baby-faced assassin with your weapons of seduction

You'll get me sooner or not

And there's a lot gone before you

I can certainly assure you

Your hand's too shaky for the job

Oh yeah

Take a shot in the dark

It's just a walk in the park

My hands behind my back

Unarmed, we're face to face

You won't get a second chance

I got friends in low places

You got your mind on other things

Wonderin' where to place your skills

I'm your man in case you're wondering

Oh, go ahead, go for the kill

And take a shot in the dark

It's just a walk in the park

I'm an old bushwhacker

Yodelling up the canyon

I'll getcha, you better believe

Behaving with abandon, got some tricks of my own

I'll keep them hid up my sleeve

So take a shot in the dark

It's just a walk in the park

Take a shot in the dark

It's just a walk in the park

Oh yeah

Portable Door lyrics - Deep Purple

When it came to me one day in Jerksville

Man, I was right on the edge

That jacket's too small for a man of your size

And those socks are too big for your head

My eyes glaze at whatever you say

But I'm listening, do tell me more

It goes under the bridge, right over my head

And out through my portable door

I was trapped in a dire situation

Between reason and someone-in-law

The winner takes all and runs off with the ball

Nothing could pleasure me more

Times were, I'd have spoken my piece

For a minute or two held the floor

But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling

Right out through my portable door

The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad

For once in my life I am bored

The public house beckons, I follow the call

And slip in through my portable door

The unlikely event came upon me

I wasn't prepared for the shock

Once round my neck and twice round the deck

And the rest disappeared up the block

So here we are and everything's changed

Faster than ever before

You gotta be jokin', man what are you smoking

Blow it out through my portable door

Old-Fangled Thing lyrics - Deep Purple

It was a hot steamy night

I was drinking on my own

Just me and my guitar

The bar was empty

Except for the regular few

Then along came you

Well, that sounds familiar

Uh uh, it's early days, unfinished tune, y'know how it is

Going nowhere up until now

I was dickin' around

Trying something new

Then along came you

You track me like a lover breathing down my neck

Tingle touching as I shiver in the heat

You're so serene and now I'm the living wreck

The melody is hot and the message so sweet

Sweet and spicy

It's feeling good man, it has that golden ring

That, that'll do nicely, something I can sing

I can get it down with this old fangled thing

Why does your eraser have a handle so long?

It's for the lead in my pencil man, I got to keep it sharp

Knock it into shape, I can't go wrong

But even then, when I'm done, here comes another part

You track me like a lover breathing down my neck, yeah

Tingle touching as I shiver in the heat

You're so serene and now I'm a living wreck

The melody is hot and the message so sweet

If I Were You lyrics - Deep Purple

You hit me where it hurt

Left me face down in the dirt

You hit me with a cheap shot

Took me down, never gave it a thought

I never saw it coming especially from you

Right out of the blue

If I were you

If I were you

And now you want to make up

Put aside this little shake up

I don't know what else there is to say

It all belongs to yesterday

Love and betrayal are not the best of friends

Getting back with you is the last thing on my mind

Without that feeling it goes against the grain

It can never be the same again

If I were you

If I were you

I'll think of something

When my blood runs cool

Love and betrayal are not the best of friends

Getting back with you is the last thing on my mind

Without that feeling it goes against the grain

It can never be the same again

If I were you

If I were you

I'll think of something

When my blood runs cool

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

If I were you

Pictures Of You lyrics - Deep Purple

I'm pickin' up a new vibe

It's nothing too much

Antenna says I may be losing my touch

I'm hanging round a bee-hive

Feeling the buzz

It's hard to explain let's say it's simply because

I like the rough

Much more than these smooth

Pictures of you

They're too good to be true

So I'm trusting my eyes again

These cameras never lie

Giving up a day job

Working at night

You're looking so fine in that cool amber light

You're running with a new mob

Working the crowd

The final result? Oh should make you proud

Forgive me asking, I can't help saying

But what you got there, the price you're paying

In the light of day, what do I see

For what it's worth, seems no better to me

These pictures of you

Are too good to be true

I'm using my eyes again

These cameras never lie

You got it, you're down and dirty

You're made for pleasure

The frame is frozen, you watch the birdie

You're made to measure

Ah-ah, look at you now

Oh-oh, stand out in a crowd

The real you showing up on your face

Your hair is blowing all over the place

Ha-ha-ha-ha

Smooth pictures of you

Are too good to be true

So I'm trusting my eyes again

These cameras never lie

I'm Saying Nothin' lyrics - Deep Purple

I'm saying nothin'

I'm walking small

You get the picture, those shifting eyes could tell it all

I've been too easy, for too many years

Ain't been so dumb, since I was wet behind the ears

So now my lips are sealed

I could never reveal

Just where I buried the gold

And the bodies that never grew old

I'm saying nothin'

I'm keeping schtum

I know what's going on behind a closed door, in a darkened room

I'm saying nothin'

Nothing at all

You'll hear no rumours, with your ear to the whispering wall

So now my lips are sealed

I could never reveal

What lies deep in my cave

The secret goes to my grave

Oh-oh-oh

The perfect crime

Is a work of art

Locked in a safe place

And that breaks my heart

Nothing to share, that wouldn't be too smart

Now my lips are sealed

I could never, ever reveal

Just where I buried the gold

And the bodies that never grew old

Oh-oh-oh

Whoa, I'm saying nothin'

I'm saying nothin' baby, nothin' at all

I'm saying nothin'

My lips are sealed

I'm saying nothin' at all

Lazy Sod lyrics - Deep Purple

Oh yeah

Mhh, something burning

You know the world's on fire

And I can't get my ass out of bed

The world is on fire

There's smoke all around my head

What was I thinking about when I crashed last night...

The oceans are rising

And I can't do a thing about that

So it's hardly surprising

I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat, man

What was I thinking about when I crashed last night...

Oh yes, turn off the gas and don't forget to switch off the light

But that's all right coz I'm a lazy sod and I'm hot, oh yeah

Don't mind me coz I'm a lazy sod

You can like it or not

I'm guessing not, oh

What was I thinking about when I crashed last night...

Oh yes, turn off the gas and don't forget to switch off the light

That's all right coz I'm a lazy sod and I'm hot, so hot, yeah

Don't mind me coz I'm a lazy sod

Whether you like it, like it or not, oh

And I'm guessing not baby

Oh, no

So fucking what, oh

Now You're Talkin' lyrics - Deep Purple

Some are in the garden with a bottle of Chardonnay, pinkies up in the air

We steppin' over the gruesome twosome, still making out on the stairs

There's a whole load of bodies, kinda hard to tell

Could be a menage-a-many from hell

And I don't know who's doing what to whom, but surely they are doing it well

Whatever does you good

Lifts your skirt

Gets you done

Unbuttons your shirt

Wakes you up

Turns your head

Hits the spot

That guy from the dealership he can't be still, he's bouncing up and down all the time

Luvvies in the kitchen, full of virtue and compassion, you hear that righteous whine

A bunch a freaking eejits swivelling on their digits, dumber than the average bear

OMFG the state of me, man, whatever happened to my hair

Whatever does you good

Lifts your skirt

Gets you done

Unbuttons your shirt

Wakes you up

Turns your head

Hits the spot

Well, now you're talkin'

Ring-tone Joe is gazing in the bowl, he's deep-arm fishing for his phone

Renee is full of guilt, she's had it up to the hilt, but it's far too soon to go home

The neighbours are screaming and banging on the wall, our music is not to their taste

This thing'll end badly if it ends at all, man, the place is getting laid to waste

Whatever does you good

Lifts your skirt

Gets you done

Unbuttons your shirt

Wakes you up

Turns your head

Hits the spot

Now you're talkin'

No Money To Burn lyrics - Deep Purple

I hear a blackbird sing

I feel a scorpion sting

Whatever gets to me first

It's what it is, man, it could be worse

Dig up a treasure chest

Step in a hornets' nest

Whatever gets to me first

Well, that's alright, I've had worse

I got no money

I got no cash

I got no moolah

I got no stash

Lost my deposit

I never learn

I got no money to burn

I live my life on the run

Under a burning sun

A man could die of thirst

Now, that's a curse

Couldn't be much worse

I got no money

I got no cash

I got no moolah

I got no stash

Lost my deposit

I never learn

I got no money to burn

I hear a church bell ring

Commit a cardinal sin

Whatever gets to me first

Well that's all right, it could be worse

I'll Catch You lyrics - Deep Purple

I guess that it's to be expected

When I have to talk this way

When I have to speak in tongues

I want to say what can't be said

I have to keep a straight face

When I'm breaking up inside

If you know who, knew what I thought

Then we'd both be crucified

I dream about you every night

But you're just beyond my reach

So now you never know my touch

And we shall never meet

Mother nature's keeping her socks on

Father time's gonna be late

Ships at night are passing silently

And our love will have to wait

My bags are always ready

My keys are in the car

Anytime you want to jump

I'll catch you in my arms

Yes, I'll catch you in my arms

I'll catch you in my arms

Anytime, anytime, anytime you want to jump

I'll catch you in my arms

Bleeding Obvious lyrics - Deep Purple

It started off so easy and now it's clear as mud

Your life is complicated and I'd help you if I could

Time is slipping by you know and things are moving fast

You've got a long wait ahead my friend, if you save the best for last

It's bleeding obvious

What a thing to say

Don't mind the rest of us

Have it your own way

You raise your voice to make your point and I'm trying to get some sleep

I said man it's all right by me, but you're getting in way too deep

I got it all the first time 'round so turn it down, give it a rest

It's not that complicated and I know what's coming next

It's all so obvious

You shouldn't be surprised

But I find it curious

They don't have it in your size

I have forgotten where we started

'Cause somewhere along the line

The salient point departed

And parked itself in a back street

In a lonely part of town

It was lost in the fog of time

You started so well

Then went off on a trip around the world

Everywhere under the sun

If you ever return

We'll see if you learned

That it all adds up to one

I know you think I'm stupid but you got to give me time

I'm sitting with my hand up but you send me to the back of the line

I hear you but it's all too much for the likes of little old me

You say this and that and who knows what, it's so hard to believe

It's bleeding obvious

If what you're trying to say's

The same as all the rest of us

In quite another way
