Relax
Blondie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
