Debbie
THE B52´S Lyrics

Radio operator to the tower
Announcement to the control room that a special event is about to occur.

Debbie's comin' in for a landing
Debbie, a pop culture icon, is making an entrance.

Oh, put your head between your knees
The experience is so exciting that it's causing a physical reaction.

Caused by the vibrations of love
The excitement is likened to the feeling of being in love.

They're about to shake me to pieces
The impending experience is so thrilling that it feels like it might break the listener apart.

Shell-shocked supersonic blonde
Description of Debbie's aesthetic.

Hyperphonic female, dark sunglasses on
Further description of Debbie's look and sounds.

Everyone is here to see her all-girl rock band
Explanation that the audience is excited to see Debbie's entire musical group perform, not just her.

Vortex pulls me in, the vortex spits me out
The experience is so intense it feels like being pulled into and out of a vortex.

Jet-eyed glitter child strappin' on a gold guitar
Description of a bandmate's striking image.

We witness the ultrasonic imploding excitation
The audience is excited to the point of implosion.

Bodies exhausted in total elation
The audience is spent from the excitement of the performance.

Queen of the underground, carrying her gold guitar
Further description of Debbie and her signature accessory.

The show is over, my downtown baby is headin' home singing a song
The performance is finished and Debbie is leaving, but everyone is still excited about what they just witnessed.

She's walkin' alone, she's walking down the block
Description of Debbie's post-performance movements.

Now she's comin' my way as our hearts and our dark sunglasses lock
Debbie has found a companion and they are sharing a moment of mutual admiration and understanding.

Every day, every day, we're just a little bit wilder
The experience of seeing Debbie's performance changes the audience and makes them more wild.

Every day, every day, ah, just a little bit tighter
Similarly, the audience is becoming more tight-knit as they share this experience together.

Every day, every day, just a little bit wilder
Reiteration that the experience of seeing Debbie's performance is changing the audience.

Every day-every day, take it a little bit higher, yeah, Hoo!
Encouragement to continue sharing in the excitement and allowing it to grow.
