  • Come Anytime, What's My Scene, Like Wow Wipe-Out & Bittersweet - Hoodoo Gurus

    These guys were pretty big here in the 80's. Yes, they are Aussie, like most of the stuff I post.

    The song "What's My Scene" was rewritten to be "That's My Team" for the 2003-07 NRL ad campaign. It was also used in end credits for Thank God You're Here.

    Anyway enjoy!!!



    Come Anytime - Hoodoo Gurus

    Come Anytime

    What is it you want from me?
    There isn't much I will not do.
    If it's only company
    You know, I might need that too.
    Won't you

    Come anytime - I'm a man of leisure,
    Come anytime, I await your pleasure.

    There's nothing new beneath the sun
    We've butchered every sacred cow
    Don't tell me about all the things you might have done
    Just tell me what are you doing now - right now.

    Come anytime, I won't give you pressure
    Come anytime - I can wait forever
    And if you can't make up your mind
    We could make it up together.

    Things like this happen every day
    Whatever happens, it's O.K.
    Why be afraid when we've got it made -
    I'll never ask you to explain.

    What is it you want from me?
    You won't shock me easily.
    Maybe it's your heart's desire,
    Maybe it's your wildest dream,
    Maybe I'm a gun-for-hire but,
    Baby, don't we make quite a team, Don't we?
    Don't we?

    Come anytime (you're so inclined) I won't give you trouble
    Come anytime (you're going blind) or you're seeing double
    And I have never been the kind who'd want to
    Burst your bubble.
    Come anytime




    Whats My Scene.wma - Hoodoo Gurus

    What's My Scene

    And another thing
    I've been wondering lately
    Oh, baby,
    Tell me where have you been?
    Now the stage is set
    Where's my Juliet, baby?
    Is it maybe
    My Midsummer Night's Dream?
    What's my scene?

    Like a talent scout
    I'm always checking out new blood
    Oh, I'd do good
    If you tell me your game.
    Playing Solitaire
    Doesn't get me where you would
    And, honey, you could
    Play by any rules that you care to name.
    What's my scene? (I gotta know)

    They say, yeah, they say
    Making love, you can make it pay.
    They say, yeah, they say,
    But we know there's a better way
    Any day.

    And another thing
    I've been wondering lately
    Am I crazy
    To believe in ideals?
    I'm a betting man
    But it's getting damn lonely.
    Oh, honey, if only
    I could be sure what I feel.
    What's my scene? (I'm dying to know)
    I'll never know.
    Well, I concede
    I've been caught in someone else's scene (but that's not me).
    Where, oh where, oh where can my scene be?
    Please answer - me
    What's my


    Like Wow Wipe-Out.wma - Hoodoo Gurus

    Like Wow Wipe-Out

    I kiss the ground on which you walk,
    I kiss the lips through which you talk,
    I kiss the city of New York where I first met you

    You're my doll and don't forget it
    'Cos I'm the guy who will regret it
    I love you more than when I said it when I first met you

    I love the way you talk, you walk, you smile, your style,
    Like now, Like, wow-wipeout! No doubt
    That I was gone the moment I laid eyes on you

    You'll never be a beauty queen
    Won't feature in no magazine
    But you're the best that's ever been
    I'm glad that I met you
    Take every day now as it comes,
    You take the cake I'll keep the crumbs
    I only hear the sound of drums in my heart
    (that means that I get you)

    I love the way you walk, you talk, you smile, your style,
    Your dress, your caress,
    Well, yes, yes, yes I'm impressed
    I was gone the moment I laid eyes on you


    Bittersweet.wma - Hoodoo Gurus

    Bittersweet

    You are my sword.
    Your love is its own reward.
    My heart, I have found,
    Gets carved surely by the pound.

    God knows. I tried,
    Tried to hold you with all my might
    But time has won,
    And I could never be that strong.

    (Don't cry) I couldn't be that strong,
    (Don't cry) That used to be my favourite song.
    (Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
    Fill my eyes whenever we meet,
    It's always bittersweet.

    I cut and I bleed.
    You seem to find that so hard to believe!
    That's just too, too bad.
    You could never touch the love that we had.

    (Don't cry) For the love we had,
    (Don't cry) Sometimes we try to take it back.
    (Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
    Kiss my cheeks whenever we meet.
    It's always bittersweet.

    (Don't cry) For a love-gone-wrong
    (Don't cry) That used to be my favourite song
    (Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet
    Feel my eyes whenever we meet.
    Anyway...

    We've grown and times change.
    When we meet now it feels so strange.
    I hold you like a sword
    You won't cut me, cut me like you did before.
    It's always bittersweet.

    ironically yesterday morning I was looking for Like Wow Wipeout on youtube so I could blog them here.  Unfortunately there is only a live version on there and the sound quality of the clip doesn't do them justice.

    OMG I totally love the Hoodoo Gurus and have just been listening to two of their tapes (Stoneage Romeos and Mars Needs Guitars) in my car - my girl and I got sick of the radio and raided my old tape cassettes.   I enjoy most of their songs and Like Wow Wipeout has to be the coolest love rock ballad ever!

    I haven't got their later albums as I found the music started to sound all the same - a bit like the Offspring does.  

    Kudos for great musical taste my friend!
