Damned, The - She Lyrics






She knows - about all the evil in this world
She knows - what blackness lurks in our souls
She parts her lips and gives me a literary quip
Sharper and sweeter than any cat-o-nine tails whip

She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing

She says - come on and swing away from blue
She says - don't yield to it's atmospheric hue
She's got the power to make things turn out right
Even in the darkest hour of the very blackest night

She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing

Eyes limped and pools of passion
Lips of deepest darkest damson
Fingers probing show white skin
Like a leather disciplinary
Looking rather predatory
Like an emissary of sin

She knows - we've got nothing more to prove
She knows - we're dancing in a dead mans shoes
She says let's check out of this haunted hotel
Where all the corridors and doorways are leading straight to hell

She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing
She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing

She drags my world awake

    I vaguely remember being backstage at a Damned gig in the 70,s with captain sensible diving into the crowd i was iiving in Chelsea at the time it was a funny old time to be alive i slipped into full on heroin addiction shortly after not to resurface for about a decade or more.

    the DAMNED&MOTORHEAD IS was and allways will be 2 of the greatest bands ever.

    R.... M....

    The Original Motorhead line up you mean. The Phil Campbell version of Overkill is totally Cringeworthy....

    R.... M....

    Lemmy told a good story of meeting Rat Scabies and becoming mates right away.

  22. j.... y....

    What year was this recorded? Love it.... - J.YO' (And who's the dark beauty he's with?) ( Ooops, my bad; his lovely wife! ) ❤❤❤

    j.... y....

    The album "Grave Disorder" (excellent by the way) was was released in 2001. The woman is Patricia Morrison (once played for Sisters Of Mercy and later with The Damned) who married Damned singer Dave Vanian in 1996.

    j.... y....

    ....and played with "The Gun Club"

    j.... y....

    Yeah, and The Bags. A classic case of dragging his girlfriend into the band.

    j.... y....

    @Chevalblanc I think she was mainly there just to stick her face on things to sell them.

    j.... y....

    @Kira Kanashimi It was Captain's decision to bring Patricia in the band: they auditioned LOTS of people and she turned to be the best of them. Captain himself said, "she is brillant and I am not hearing a bad word about her".

  23. I.... L....

    one of the best bands out of the 70 ies

  24. I.... L....

    the damned lure punk

  25. J.... L....

    love this song.. someday someone will dedicate me that... lol

  26. O.... D....

    Still howling stronger than ever!

  27. I.... ....

    Cant stop listening to this song....quality!

  28. P.... ....

    She makes me feel like a King.

  29. S.... B....

    Are you ready, Are you ready?
    For the Disco Damned?

  30. S.... H....

    MOst underrated band in the whole Damned world

    S.... H....

    They are rated in the whole Damned fan world, who gives a shite about anybody else

    S.... H....

    No, they are NOT. Yawn. Posting this doesn't make you hip or special. They have been a commercial success since the Seventies, so SHUT UP maggot.

    S.... H....

    Nah the Ruts were ..

    S.... H....

    Damned underated? Camon , is rather famous band , The Gun Club , where Patricia Morrison came from may be more underated and is a fucking great band, and I can tell you thousand bands as good as damned , from the same decade and less famous as Sad lovers and giants , Pink turns blue...

  31. M.... S....

    I love a man who appreciates women.

  32. L.... V....

    offspring is not punk. pop at best!!

    L.... V....

    Who says the Offspring are punk? They certainly don't call themselves that. Rock, baby, rock. Not pop.

  33. o.... ....

    from 3:21 till the end, im reminded of chris isaak's wicked game. especially when dave signs the song off at the end just like chris does at the end of his song. (commence with the "you dont know shit!" comments.) THE DAMNED ARE THE BEST EVAR!!!!

    o.... ....

    +opethinchains I get where you're coming from, totally. :)

    o.... ....

    I totally get the Chris Isaak sound, but I also hear a bit of Glenn Danzig

  34. C.... R....

    She Drags My World Awake

  35. M.... M....

    This is a cover of the kiss song, and Patricia killed JLP...

  36. O.... ....

    just getting really into punk. Any suggestions?

    O.... ....

    flipper,vaselines,agent orange,dead kennedys, the pixies social d, etc..all bad ass....depends what type of punk you like as well, cause theres old punk from the 70's from the UK, sex pistols,the damned, or the west coast surf -punk genre such as agent orange and social d.???? ARE YOU goth punk, or anarchist punk?/are u a NIHILIST or just a rebel??? read, read and study oh grass-hopper..for there is so much too learn....lol peace n love....

    O.... ....

    Pere Ubu doing Non-Alignment Pact

    O.... ....

    Wow- no Stranglers in there...guess everyone missed out their 40 years of work too.

    O.... ....

    The golden rule from an old skool punk elite from 1977 namely myself.......... Don't class the Damned as Punk..,.👍

    O.... ....

    @Letocetum sulley That's commercial Pop music..

  37. A.... O....

    I love this song, I love the lyrics and I love the feeling it gives me.

  38. s.... ....

    Its that time of year again

  39. s.... L....

    best band ever

  40. A.... ....

    Shit. Want to like it, but it's at 666 / 6.

  41. c.... b....

    An ode to the Lady in red, eh??

    c.... b....

    That's dave vanians wife patricia morrison. She was a sis of mercy and a bag

    c.... b....

    @chainsaw barbarian ... and a Gun Club

    c.... b....

    @Istvan Alexander yes....good call

  42. A.... F....

    king o the goths? Oh and the misfits were totally influenced by thee DAMNED... and Vanian played with MC5 and paid his dues id say by now, kids!

  43. D.... ....

    Another dumbass asking why Patricia Morrison is in the pic? She was in the Damned for many years playing bass. I've seen them live many times. Are you guys newbs or what?

    D.... ....

    +Diabolik771 Also, I'm pretty sure that Dave Vanian wrote this song ABOUT Patricia Morrison, and I'm almost 100% certain that she's playing bass on it. I saw them when this album had just been released and she was playing bass then.

    D.... ....

    +The Real Vermillion 303 Exactly----lucky girl!

    D.... ....

    @Maureen Sullivan Wish I was that lucky! ;)

    D.... ....

    I saw her live playing with Jeffrey Lee pierce in a tiny punk club in Nashville Tennessee called Cantrell's....many moons ago..sigh

    D.... ....

    @Vermillion 303 ye

  44. D.... ....

    A lot of dumb comments on here. One idiot Forest Green commenting that the Misfits had a song out already called "She". So what? It's rather broad song title no?

    D.... ....

    Monkees had a song called She as well.... but who cares, exactly!!

    D.... ....

    @Maureen Sullivan
    Kiss did SHE on "Dressed to Kill" their third album, not first.

    D.... ....

    Yeah ,David Johanson(former New York Doll and later known as Buster Poindexer) also had a song called She.

    D.... ....

    So does Elvis Costello, from the movie Notting Hill

    D.... ....

    They ripped it off Charles Aznavour!

  45. T.... N....

    one of my favorite songs ever.brilliant! Long Live The Damned...........

  46. f.... ....

    amazing song. lifetime favorite for sure. i will never stop loving this song

  47. M.... B....

    What I think is really cool about them. They have known each other for years and years. She was the original bass player for Alice and the Bags. One of the first all girl LA punk bands. She was Pat Bag...

    M.... B....

    They go from way back...a true love story. She understands him like no other.

  48. S.... R....

    Well, if she wasn't you've had nothing to ask...
    But seriously: she is married to Dave Vanian and played bassguitar with the Damned for a period.
    And other than that: it's always nice to see her.

  49. D.... I....

    Why is Patricia Morrison in the picture?

    D.... I....

    Look up either her profile or Dave Vanian's profile and it will answer itself.

    D.... I....

    Might be because he wrote it about her... :: crickets chirping:: LOL

    D.... I....

    Shes his wife.

  50. S.... ....

    GOOD TO SEE THE DAMNED RE-WROTE THE STONES , WE LOVE YOU !

  51. F.... a....

    Did ya know Dave was also short listed to front the Stranglers in 1990... Would`ve been an interesting mix that?

  52. m.... ....

    the monkees had a song called SHE in the 60's if that helps :)

  53. G.... P....

    Damn, this song kicks ass. The Damned are just too good to be as (relatively) unrecognized as they are...

  54. F.... G....

    The Damned and The Misfits toured together, and were in cahoots. Plagiarizing your friends is different than plagiarizing strangers.

  55. L.... K....

    Charles Asnavour had a song called 'She' some 35yrs previous...

  56. F.... G....

    Um, no.
    The Damned song was on Grave Disorder, which came out in 2001.
    The Misfits song was on the Cough/Cool 7" which came out in 1977.
    Damned vocalist Dave Vanian auditioned to be the Misfits vocalist in 1996, when they got back together. That song was on the set list for that tour.
    Anything else?

  57. k.... f....

    This songs been around a bit longer than the misfits song of the same name

  58. C.... C....

    so does elvis costello LOL

  59. m.... p....

    il cantante sembra un incrocio tra iggy pop e piero pelu'.....

  60. l.... ....

    And.....???

  61. l.... ....

    Actually she's the lucky one!

  62. F.... G....

    I love the Damned, but they know damn well that the Misfits already have a song called she.

  63. T.... ....

    GREAT Couple. Made for each other. That's True Love, as Johnny & Exene would say.

    T.... ....

    I so agree!! He always loved her, they go from way back...it was meant to be.

  64. S.... ....

    TASTE MY BIG BONER!

  65. L.... K....

    Do you think Pat says that to Dave when giving head? 'Ah.Dave. Its a bit hard to swallow!' :)

  66. j.... g....

    so relaxing,s o calm, so beautiful. Love this song 'til the day I die.

  67. F.... M....

    Excellent !!

  68. L.... G....

    Trish and Dave rule!

  69. x.... ....

    this song has an influence over American

  70. x.... ....

    more american

  71. p.... ....

    Which comic?

  72. e.... ....

    I learned of this band through a comic, and DAMN, The Damned creates good music.

  73. R.... B....

    she is a bitch!! haha

  74. I.... A....

    @stevendemoniac She was in Gun Club

  75. C.... ....

    If memory serves me right, she started playing in an LA punk band called the Alice bag band, or Alice and the bags before joining sisters of mercy.

    C.... ....

    She was in The Gun Club as well!

  76. a.... s....

    beautiful song!!!

  77. J.... B....

    Patrcia Morrison is a Vamp .....Just wanted to point that out that's all !!!!

  78. F.... ....

    I recall Jerry Only originally asked Dave Vanian to front the Misfits when they reformed in 1996. Its ashame he declined the offer, If he had taken the job, not only would the Misfits be able to perform two great songs called "She", but they also might have actually went on to record a good album instead of disgracing their own legacy which they've done an amazing job of over the past 15 years. Dave would have saved The Misfits from themselves.. Well.at least The Damned still make good albums.

  79. S.... G....

    Patricia Morrison, bass guitarist from the gothic rock band The Sisters Of Mercy; she is a sexy gothic girl for me :)

  80. J.... A....

    this is what puts me off the Damned..

  81. h.... ....

    does Pat play bass for real? Von always says she cant play. even in her band The Bags or Loaded whatever or Gun Club, i cld nver /hear/ her bass guitar. makes me wonder. shes sexy tho, a real punk rock royal couple

  82. J.... E....

    Wow. Sex and voices and all that good stuff. Love the drums too. Very sleek, panther-like couple!

  83. F.... a....

    Fucking excellent song, from a brilliant album! The oldies are still the goldies!!!

  84. G.... S....

    @joeymantera Was that a request from your badly abused penis?

  85. R.... ....

    Damn, he looks dead in that picture.

  86. A.... ....

    Blackfoot? I thought this was an old punk band...

  87. j.... ....

    Great song, I feel like punishing vagina with my penis to this song.

  88. m.... ....

    Nice reply to Asnavour

  89. m.... g....

    The older Dave gets the more he looks like a punk rocking Bob Odenkirk.

  90. m.... ....

    @narred True that. I completely agree. You are man of taste.

  91. D.... ....

    It's Good, but for me it's just not as good as in past years. His Voice has changed too much, it was better rougher and more raw, and he looked better then. But i shall always hold him under high esteem i suppose.

  92. e.... ....

    These people are my god parents! I feel like I'm now cool by relation.

  93. w.... g....

    Patricia and Dave do make a lovely couple!

  94. Y.... S....

    I freaking love this song!

  95. R.... N....

    There is not a single flaw on this album

  96. A.... ....

    They go so well together but still, a girl can't help but feel just a little bit jealous of her!

  97. P.... 1....

    @synthetickat
    Maybe he's referring to the fact that many fans despised this line-up because Rat Scabies is missing. As much as I liked the band when Scabies was in, I have to admit Grave Disorder is a kick ass album, an instant Damned classic.

  98. K.... E....

    Patricia Morrison!!Yes she is! and very talented!

  99. B.... S....

    I have truly loved The Damned longer than I was alive!
