Marvellous Lyrics


Oh my you’re driving me crazy
Don’t know why I want you baby
My eyes are bigger than my mouth but maybe
I could learn to be your lady
My heart goes boom boom boom
When you walk into the room
Whom should I say is calling me
Why you wanna give me trouble baby
Uh uh uh uh uh uh-uh
*Told* my eyes just not to stare (?)
Don’t look now, he’s over there
They say you’re bad news, I don’t care
I just can’t stop
You’re dangerous
Oh oh
You’re marvellous
I’m a fool for your wickedness
I think you’re really working it, you’re cool

And I’m getting myself into trouble
Uh uh uh-uh-uh
*damn*
, here I go again
I can’t stop my thoughts from thinking
When will it ever end
I can’t stop my heart from pumping, from pumping
Boom boom, why are you so cruel
Dan: I’m not cruel, I know a lot of girls like you
Martina: Not true, not girls not just like me
Dan: They’re just like you
Martina: Not just like me
Dan: They’re just like you, they’re trouble too
Oh, You’re dangerous
Oh oh, You’re marvellous
I’m a fool for your wickedness
You’re trouble but I’m learning that you’re cool
And I’m getting myself into trouble
Getting myself into trouble
Getting myself into trouble
Maybe you’ve got to tell no others
Maybe you’ll tell me not to bother
Baby if I could have my brothers, I’d get you one way or another
And I know all about you
I know I shouldn’t want you
Ooh, *It's* true, I’m looking for trouble
Dan: ???
Martina: Not true, not girls not just like me
Dan: I know a dozen others like you
Martina: Not just like me
Dan: Yes, I do, they’re trouble too
Oh, You’re dangerous
Oh oh, You’re marvellous
I’m a fool for your wickedness
I’m getting myself, getting myself into trouble
You’re dangerous
I’m a fool for your wickedness, I think you’re really working it, you’re cool
And I’m getting myself into trouble

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Dragonette are a part-Canadian part-British electropop music band. They are currently signed to Mercury UK. They originally formed in Toronto, Canada in 2005.

The band is made up of Canadian singer Martina Sorbara, her husband Dan Kurtz, a Brazilian that has lived in Canada since he was 4 years old, Joel Stouffer and Will Stapleton (who replaced original guitarist Simon Craig following the band's move to London). Martina is a successful singer-songwriter in Canada, and Dan Kurtz a member of the popular livetronica trio The New Deal. Martina's father is Greg Sorbara, Ontario's Liberal Finance Minister. Martina has since referred to the work she produced as a solo artist as "tampon music".

All of the band members, with the exception of Will Stapleton (born in London), are from Toronto, but now they all live in West London. Originally called "The Fuzz", the band's first gigs were touring the USA as support act for Duran Duran. Since then the band have gone on to support other major UK acts including New Order, Basement Jaxx and the Sugababes. They have recently completed a series of headline gigs in small venues in the UK and Canada, and performed at the Glastonbury Festival 2007. Prior to signing their record contract, the Dragonette (EP) was independently released as promo only and the songs have gained the attention of many critics such as the popular music blog Popjustice where they were named the #1 pop act to look out for in 2007. The band share management with the Scissor Sisters.

On Thursday, February 08 2007, the video for the track "Jesus Doesn't Love Me", which was filmed in December 2006, leaked onto the internet, through the website MySpace and also Popjustice. The video has since been removed from MySpace, as it was not intended to be viewed at this point in time. A 'taster' of this video is currently available to watch on the band's official YouTube page.

In early February 2007 the band flew to Toronto to shoot a music video for their first single I Get Around. The single was initially set for release on 16th April. The date was later pushed back to 30th April. Despite heavy promotion from the band, it entered the UK singles chart at a disappointing #92. Many have attributed this to confusion as to when the single was actually released (at one point there were three conflicting 'release dates'), others claim it simply was not stocked in record shops anywhere outside of London. Also, the fact that I Get Around was at one time available to download for free from the band's website (back in 2005), and was previously released as part of the compilation album "Robopop" (back in 2006)], certainly did nothing to help its performance as a hit single in 2007.

In May 2007, the video for "Take It Like a Man" was leaked onto YouTube before the band had a chance to release it themselves. The second single was released on the 23 of July 2007. Their second single was another commercial disappointment, debuting at #122 on the UK Charts. Around this time a new track was sent out to DJs around the United Kingdom, a cover of Calvin Harris's single The Girls. Dragonette's version however, replaced the lyrics with "The Boys" - a re-working they had previously performed at London's Gay Pride 2007. On the promo CDs was written "Dragonette have something to say to Calvin Harris!" The song was leaked onto the internet. Later, a fan-video from YouTube appeared on Perez Hilton's famous blog. The song was also featured during a Nikki Hilton fashion show.

Galore was made available to download through the UK iTunes store on August 20, 2007. It was physically released on September 24 in Europe and Japan, and on the following day in Canada. The album reached #80 in the Canadian charts but failed to chart in the UK.
