Relax
Blondie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Relax don't do it
When you want to go to it
Relax don't do it
When you want to come
Relax don't do it
When you want to suck to it
Relax don't do it
When you want to come
When you want to come

But shoot it in the right direction
Make making it your intention
Live your dreams
Scheme your schemes
You got to hit me
Hit me
Hit me with those laser beams

Laser beams

Relax don't do it
When you want to suck to it
Relax don't do it
When you want to come
Relax don't do it
When you want to suck to it




Relax don't do it
When you want to come
