Suzie Safety

Sparks · Other Songs - Sparks

I looked up in the sun

And I didn't shake my eyes

Then a girl appeared and said

"Here, these are your size"

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

I tried to cross the street

And I almost got mowed down

But the softest little hand

Yanked me back to safer ground

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

She says, no smoking

She says, no drink

You should wear a parka

I'm really safe but I kind of resent

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

When she's near to me

And there's no one else around

And I can't control myself

She says, "Safety first, pal"

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

She says no speeding

And always eat right

Watch your fats and starches

I'm really safe but I kind of resent

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

She's safe in my arms

And I'm safe in hers

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie safety

Suzie Safety

The song reflects the band's broader commitment to lyrical eccentricity and musical experimentation, hallmarks that have sustained their career across decades. While often associated with their early explorations of new wave and art pop sensibilities, the recording captures the duo's knack for balancing absurdity with genuine emotional resonance. This work remains a testament to Sparks' enduring influence on alternative music, offering listeners a glimpse into the creative process that has defined their extensive discography.
