Adam Ant - Darlin' Boy Lyrics






Any messages Miss Moneypenny
They tried so hard
But there will never be
There will never be
Another Connery
Disco volante

Darlin' boy darlin' face
Parks his car in your space
Darlin' smile don't entertain
That deadly gaze
You'll never love again
Oh darlin', sweet darlin'

Oh don't come so close to you
No good for you
This perfect man
Too good to be true
Take your sex above beyond
A sack artist
The name is blonde

Darlin' boy, darlin' curls
Hypnotises all the girls

Darlin' boy, loves the chase
Parks his tongue in your face
Darlin' boy, darlin' curls
Hypnotises all the girls
Darlin' girl, save your breath
Walk away he's the kiss of death
Oh darlin' girl, save your breath
Walk away he's the kiss of death

Heaven's in the back seat
Of his car
Lips as hot
As Hiroshima

    New Romantic and synth-pop was the most musically interesting and exciting period of the 80s. Great innovative videos too.

  9. N.... N....

    The saddest thing is that all those male dancers are most likely dead from AIDS.

    I could eat him... with a spoon!

  19. R.... B....

    Excellent!

  20. C.... A....

    Strange- Where was the cameo/impersonation of Marlon Brando as the Godfather?  Adam did four impersonations that looked back at Prince Charming from the broken mirror, four individuals who had had great artistic inspiration and influence on him: Clint Eastwood as the Man With No Name,  Rudolph Valentino, Alice Cooper, and Marlon Brando as the Godfather. I recall this quite clearly, and yet, in this version of the video, he isn't here.

  21. H.... A....

    Adam was very handsome in those days.

  22. b.... ....

    Shame he's aged not to good .

  37. A.... C....

    A.... C....

    @MC Squared Really?

    A.... C....

    @Andreia Cristina Vieira da Silva I think. He may be out now but I don't think he's performing anymore.

    A.... C....

    He was just touring in the US and now in his homeland.

  38. J.... J....

    Gosh, he could really swing from the chandelier!

  39. A.... M....

    He woz defo head of is time, he made some great vidos tho.

  40. B.... D....

    Diana Dors, England's Marilyn Monroe but Doris could act. Thanks Adam Ant for reminding the younger generation of her.

  41. M.... O....

    Ridicule,my friends-it's nothing to be scared of......

  42. m.... ....

    cameo by Alice Cooper.

    m.... ....

    That was Adam dressed as Alice Cooper.

  43. B.... G....

    Handsome Adam 👍

  44. R.... F....

    Adamantium is indestructible

  45. D.... M....

    I love this song and video but I always wonder why they are dressed as Clint Eastwood, Alice Cooper and Rudolph Valentino at the end

    D.... M....

    They are people Adam admired and was inspired by in life.

  46. R.... K....

    Das Video war unter uns Jungs Tagesgespräch an der Berufsschule, es gab 1981 leider zuwenig "Azubines Werkzeugmacherinen"

  47. R.... K....

    Da war auch ein ehemaliger E-Bass-Gitarist von Roxy Music dabei, John Wetton, der quirlige Blonde rechts. Ha

  48. G.... Z....

    I loved him when I was a child... and still I do! Greets to you Mr. Goddard :-)

  49. L.... H....

    Dont u ever lmao gwan man

  50. A.... A....

    Foregin mounds and it appears that we are dealing with one circle, the same circle. This is all apart of a human trafficking ring. One can paint a pretty canvas but it is what lies underneath the canvas that matters. The question is involvement and who knew and who made a choice not to report and obstruct justice.

  51. s.... l....

    God, he was hot!

  52. A.... .....

    Diana Dors is the Fairy godmother

  53. M.... O....

    Rudolph Valentino, Man with No Name, Alice Cooper, Dick Turpin, panto...and Diana Doors....Perfect :) Diana was an absolute star in this.

  54. S.... D....

    I can't believe that this song charted. It's utter crap!

  55. J.... N....

    This is so weird!

  56. M.... P....

    Confession, when I was a kid I thought he was singing Prince Charley (in reference to Prince Charles)

  57. j.... r....

    Diane dors a legend

  58. G.... B....

    A message to our social media generation perhaps?

  59. G.... B....

    Who does original video and music like this anymore....

  60. J.... D....

    Ridicule is nothing to be scared of

  61. D.... P....

    Diana Dors still had it.

  62. p.... ....

    Good grief that's Diana Dors!

  63. T.... ....

    tony whites fault i know this

  64. A.... J....

    Cameo from Salem, from Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

  65. R.... K....

    Guess what

    Ridicule is nothung to be scared off

  66. s.... w....

    OOOOOOHHAAAAAAAHAAAEEEEHAAAAAAA - Adam Ant, 1981

  67. K.... H....

    So, we all in agreement that Adam and the Ants was just Stuart Goddard's excuse to dress pretty?

  68. M.... ....

    I was no prince charming
    Nothing dandy about me

  69. R.... S....

    I was 52 this year and when I was a teenager in the 80's, I was so in love with him. I just found this channel and it really takes me back, making me all teary and feeling nostalgic.

  70. C.... K....

    This video foreshadowed TikTok. Adam Ant was TOO ahead of his time

    C.... K....

    Chad Kreiberg how lol

  71. k.... k....

    What happened to him doing The Godfather Marlin Brando at the end??

  72. J.... M....

    When music videos were FUN!

  73. L.... ....

    I was born in 1974, and used to love Adam and the Ants as a kid. I was bought this album on cassette in 1982 when I was only eight. It used to have the lyrics to all the songs printed inside on the cassette inlay card, and I would be singing at the top of my voice "SEX!!! S. E. X......SEX!!! S. E. X" ha ha

  74. B.... W....

    It's like an episode of Blackadder

  75. g.... ....

    Hard to believe that he was placed in an institution for the insane when he was 8 years old, because of the lose of his father. He admired Diana Doors so much he wouldn't leave her out of the video, even though she said she couldn't do the dance.

  76. G.... Z....

    I was a child when i fall in love with Adam :-) But nice to see this again and my memories came back :-)

  77. R.... T....

    Him as Clint Eastwood 🤩🤩🤩🤩

  78. t.... ....

    best song ever

  79. p.... 1....

    Kudos to Ms Dors.

  80. A.... S....

    Ah, memories of Autumn 1981.

  81. J.... R....

    What a brilliant song. Loved it in the early Eighties and still do today 👏✊😉

  82. S.... ....

    So camp but brilliant Adam Ant was so ahead of his time

  83. Z.... P....

    I love it that many people did the prince charming dance at one of his concerts. Unfortunately, I love in South Texas, and even peopñe pushing 30 with blue HAIR dont know the magic of Adam and the ants. I nearly cried. My brand new super cute and really intellegent new bartender ( I'm a cook) had no idea who Adam ant was. I nearly. Wept. How can you have such pretty blue hair and not know who Adam ant is?! How is that possible? How does that evenhappen?

    Z.... P....

    My grandson who is 3 knows the dance, but he also knows french jazz, American punk, and italian opera ( Vivaldi And such) how does a grown person with blue hair not know who Adam ant is?! I almost cried real tears. ( I don't even cry when I chop onions. )

    Z.... P....

    I love so many types and genres of music, it makes me so sad that people 35 and younger don't know or haven't been exposed to different types of music. When did that start happening? That we quit exposing our kids to our grandparents music?

    Z.... P....

    She's such a sweet and smart girl, she is a great parent, she had blue hair. She has never heard of my favorite bands. Ever.

    Z.... P....

    @Zelda Pinwheel
    Reason for this is adam ant is dated and clearly didn't stand the test of time. Sure, he was big decades ago, but he was essentially little more than a catchy gimmick groomed by the the likes of Malcolm McClaren and record company executives. You sound old.

  84. s.... w....

    the most iconic music video and song of all time dare i say

    s.... w....

    You dare

  85. N.... W....

    oh my god Dianna Dors was quite a milf

  86. l.... w....

    she was hot

  87. R.... 2....

    It was Monkey on the telly and Adam and the ants on the stereo. Amazing days.

  88. C.... F....

    Valhalla for Chippendales dancers.

  89. l.... ....

    Because I'm older than dirt I remember watching this video when it had its world premier on (If I remember rightly) Swap Shop, or whatever Saturday morning kids show was on the bbc at the time. I remember they made a big thing about how it was being seen for the first time anywhere. Diana Dors' performance particularly sticks in the memory.

  90. s.... n....

    The gayest song and singer ever.
    Metaphorically speaking obviously.
    He didn’t even have the edge to be a poof.

    s.... n....

    stephen noonan
    Fair point. Had he been a puddle jumper, this would have made him somewhat more interesting.

  91. H.... 9....

    Ok people can someone explain me what the video is about in the end 🤯🤯lol this is weird

    H.... 9....

    HALL 9000 look to history HALL

  92. s.... ....

    Watch again. This could not be a single in modern times. This is punk as fuck. Seriously, if taken seriously. If you played this on a juke box back then....

  93. P.... H....

    Is that Gemma Collins lollll

  94. D.... C....

    My first Love...x

  95. F.... F....

    When me & my mates go drunk. Best song ever 🤣iCtuaully think 🤔 m Diana doors

    F.... F....

    FEELING FINE AT 49 Amanda nice to just be someone else at times Amanda 😉

  96. H.... ....

    there's nothing to be scared of

  97. R.... G....

    There was only ever one Prince Charming and that's Adam Ant himself, great song and video from the 1980s =))

  98. M.... ....

    Oh man, I miss the early 1980s. MTV was King.
