  • I'll be the late night lady you won't recognize,
    I'm a chameleon I'm always in disguise
    I'd read your future but it's written in the past,
    Take a good look might be your last

    Don't try to show me, cause you don't know me,
    Stay away!

    I can be wilder than the wind,
    119 miles an hour,
    I'm in a whole other dimension,
    Dancing doubles on the floor,
    You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy,
    But I'm stone cold sober

    You're telling me something
    But there's nothing cheap as words
    I'm walking away before I do affect the birds
    Excuse me Mr I've got other things to do
    Than to stand here listening to you

    Stop talking at my face
    Take a rocket out to space and ..
    Stay away!!

    I can be wilder than the wind
    119 miles an hour
    I'm in a whole other dimension,
    Dancing doubles on the floor
    You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
    But I'm stone cold ..
    I can be wilder than the wind
    119 miles an hour
    I'm in a whole other dimension,
    Dancing doubles on the floor
    You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
    But I'm stone cold sober

    In the madness of the storm,
    I'm the one to carry on,
    I don't need no medicine,
    If you're looking for a cure,
    Don't be knocking at my door,
    I'll never let you in
    Take a rocket out to space
    And stay out of my place

    I can be wilder than the wind
    119 miles an hour
    I'm in a whole other dimension,
    Dancing doubles on the floor
    You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
    But I'm stone cold
    I can be wilder than the wind
    119 miles an hour
    I'm in a whole other dimension,
    Dancing doubles on the floor
    You think I'm crazy, a little bit hazy
    But I'm stone cold sober Writer/s: BLAIR NICHOLAS SOMERLED MACKICHAN, PADDY BYRNE, PALOMA FAITH

  • Mizi from SlI don't think the lyrics are right. I'm pretty sure it's 190 miles an hour and that she talking about flipping someone the bird, not "affecting the birds".
  • Elissa from Indianapolis, InThis song is ASSUME. I remember going to bars and hearing this song play. I lived here about 20 years ago. I moved back just recently, and I have not heard this song since I left Indy in 1991. It was great! to hear it today and I hope you play it more often.
  • Runcil from Mumbai, IndiaA very melodious song. Something different from the other stuff thrown at us.
