13/06/1985 Top of the Pops

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Welcome to Britain's best-loved serial, Top of the Soaps.

You've seen him on Radio 1 -

for the first time ever on television,

a natural, life-sized effigy of Dixie Peach.

Thanks, Mike.

I've been laying in the sun in anticipation for this big event,

but tonight, I'm going to kick off with Scritti Politti, The Word Girl.

MUSIC: The Word Girl by Scritti Politti

# To do what I should do

# To long for you to hear

# I open up my heart

# And watch her name appear

# A word for you to use

# A girl without a cause

# A name for what you lose

# When it was never yours

# Oh Do-do-doo

# The first time baby that I came to you

# I'd do things that you want me to

# The second time baby that I came to you

# For oh, you found my love for you

# The third time baby that I came to you

# Oh, oh, oh, I knew

# The last time baby that I came to you

# Oh, how your flesh and blood became the word

# A name the girl outgrew

# The girl was never real

# She stands for your abuse

# The girl is no ideal

# It's a word for what you do

# In a world of broken rules

# She found a place for you

# Along her chain of fools

# Oh Do-do-doo

# The first time baby that I came to you

# I'd do things that you want me to

# The second time baby that I came to you

# For oh, you found my love for you

# The third time baby that I came to you

# Oh, oh, oh, I knew

# The last time baby that I came to you

# Oh, how your flesh and blood became the word

# Oh, how

# Your flesh and blood

# Oh, how

# Your flesh and blood

# Oh, how

# Your flesh and blood. #

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

That's Scritti Politti.

At number nine, the darling of a million bedroom walls,

raw sensuality -

Madonna, and Crazy For You.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

# Swaying room as the music starts

# Strangers making the most of the dark

# Two by two their bodies become one

# I see you through the smoky air

# Can't you feel the weight of my stare

# You're so close but still a world away

# What I'm dying to say

# Is that I'm crazy for you

# Touch me once and you'll know it's true

# I never wanted anyone like this

# It's all brand-new

# You'll feel it in my kiss

# I'm crazy for you

# Crazy for you

# Trying hard to control my heart

# I walk over to where you are

# Eye to eye we need no words at all

# Slowly now we begin to move

# Every breath I'm deeper into you

# Soon we two are standing still in time

# If you read my mind

# You'll see I'm crazy for you

# Touch me once and you'll know it's true

# I never wanted anyone like this

# It's all brand-new,

# You'll feel it in my kiss

# You'll feel it in my kiss because I'm crazy for you

# Touch me once and you'll know it's true

# I never wanted anyone like this

# It's all brand-new

# You'll feel it in my kiss

# I'm crazy for you

# Crazy for you

# Crazy for you

# Crazy for you

# It's all brand-new I'm crazy for you

# And you know it's true I'm crazy, crazy for you

# It's all brand-new I'm crazy for you

# And you know it's true, yeah

# I'm crazy for you # Crazy for you, baby. #

# Do you remember

# Chalk hearts melting on a playground wall

# Do you remember

# Dawn escapes from moon-washed college halls

# Do you remember

# The cherry blossom in the market square

# Do you remember

# I thought it was confetti in our hair

# By the way

# Didn't I break your heart?

# Please excuse me

# I never meant to break your heart

# So sorry

# I never meant to break your heart

# But you broke mine

# Kayleigh

# Is it too late to say I'm sorry?

# And Kayleigh, could we get it together again?

# I just can't go on pretending

# That it came to a natural end

# Kayleigh

# Oh, I never thought I'd miss you

# And Kayleigh, I thought that we'd always be friends

# We said our love would last for ever

# So how did it come to this bitter end?

# Oh, yeah

# Do you remember

# Barefoot on the lawn with shooting stars

# Do you remember

# Loving on the floor in Belsize Park

# Do you remember dancing in stilettos in the snow

# Do you remember you never understood I had to go

# By the way

# Didn't I break your heart?

# Please excuse me

# I never meant to break your heart

# So sorry

# I never meant to break your heart

# But you broke mine

# Kayleigh

# I just wanna say I'm sorry

# But Kayleigh, I'm too scared to pick up the phone

# To hear you've found another lover

# To patch up our broken home

# Kayleigh

# I'm still trying to write that love song

# Kayleigh, it's more important to me now you're gone

# Maybe it will prove that we were right

# Or ever prove that I was wrong. #
