Lyrics Over My Head - Robert Calvert

Over My Head

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 rule
It 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 intellectual
And 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 mag
It 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 lips
Talking 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 hard
She 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 roll
She 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
