Over My Head Lyrics


She was talking about the world situation
She was sitting on a coffee-bar stool
I heard her say something clever 'bout inflation
And the Ayatollah's ruleIt was over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head,Her eyes were plastered with a lot of mascara
And her hair was cut by Vidal
I was wondering how I was going to score her
A real live intellectualAnd then she started talking bout a new production
Of Dostoyevsky in drag
The way her mouth moved was pure seduction
When she said she'd written it up in a magIt was over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head,Everybody's talking 'bout a new way of thinking
Getting plugged into silicon chips
All I could think about was lateral linking

And I just watched her Mary Quant lipsTalking over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head,She asked me was I ever into Fellini
And what did I think of Godard
I tried to imagine her in a bikini
And didn't find it was hardShe said have you seen that Fritz Lang movie
Where the hero loses his soul?
I said I didn't think that sounded too groovy
I'm more into rock and rollShe was over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head, over my head
Over my head,
Over my head,
Over my head,

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Robert Calvert is best known as the on-off frontman of influential rock group Hawkwind. Robert was born in 1945 in Pretoria, South Africa. His family moved to Kent in England in 1947. He grew up wanting to be a fighter pilot but ended up a writer, an enthusiastic participant in the 1960s London psychedelia subculture.
After meeting Hawkwind co-founder Dave Brock in 1970, Robert joined the underground icons as resident poet, reading his work amid strobes and light cascades on stage.
