Devo - I Desire Lyrics
I desire
I desire
I pledge allegiance to the thought
That your love is all that matters
To bring the whole world to its knees
Don't let me torment you
Don't let me bring you down
Don't ever let me hurt you
Don't let me fail because
I desire your attention
I desire your perfect love
I desire nothing more than this
To give your happines
Could become a lifetime goal
A smile I might bring you
Is more important than world peace
Don't let me torment you
Don't let me bring you down
Don't ever let me hurt you
Don't let me fail because
I desire your attention
I desire your perfect love
I desire nothing more
I pledge allegiance to the fact
That you're wise to walk away
For nothing is more dangerous
Than desire when it's wrong
Don't let me torment you
Don't let me bring you down
Don't ever let me hurt you
Don't let me fail because
I desire your attention
I desire your perfect love
I desire nothing more
I desire your attention
I desire your perfect love
I desire nothing more or less
I desire
I desire
I desire
I desire

Devo I Desire Comments
John Hinckley did not write this song! The words in this song were from a poem he wrote and Devo turned it into a song for which they got a lot of backlash for!
Yeah but he still gets writers credit and royalties
Nothing is more dangerous than desire when it’s wrong....
John Hinckley Jr. wrote this song Devo sends him a royalty check....
Some other dude here already discovered it :P
This song is written by the world's greatest gun-owning freedom fighter and the greatest American hero and teacher-John Hinckley Jr. who in 1981, restrained a out-of-control tyrant-Reagan. For that he should have been awarded $10,000,000 and the congressional medal of honor and right now as he is free at last, he should be made Secretary General of the United Nations which should relocate their world headquarters to Anchorage, Alaska where when I lived there in 1974 I was a communist in high school attending Junior ROTC classes in high school and I had a military science major!!!!!
I'm amazed he is still alive. Where did U find out he has written the song?
CIA-BOT SAYS
YOUR MISSION IS OVER
One of my favorite Devo song..
alas, this is what Jugglos should be listening to, if they weren't fucking somber little pinheads.
How in the *fuck* did I land here from imdb's file on Taxi Driver?
@Peter Graves Yeah... one hell of a can of worms.
John Hinkley got lyric credits on this song, Jodie Foster....
John hinckley jr was the greatest freedom fighter that ever existed in the world!!!!
history just repeated itself!
Jodi Foster. Interesting story...
this is my favorite devo song next to big mess.

On Cassette, in my newly released 1984 Buick Grand National, Girlfriends hair blowing in the wind, T-tops out....CRANKED WAY TFU....!!! (1982, what a great year)
grand national!.....shiiiiiiiii* you were doin' alright in '84...I was still rebuilding my $5 mustang
someone please get Marilyn Manson to cover this song
uh no. please erase them from existence and bring back rock n' roll
@philippe holland don't worry, real rock n roll will never die
@JetsonVinyl Good god no.
+JetsonVinyl makes sense
+Gluemonkey Thanks - I can imagine a great version from MM. He seems to like to cover 80's new wave. I also would like him to cover XTC Complicated Game and maybe John Cage A Gun or Romeo Void Never Say Never
someone please get Marilyn Manson to do a cover of this song
Please... don't.
Geezing happily!
SO TRUE!!!
D-E-V-O deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! (Thanks for uploading this song...one of my favorite DEVO songs!) (I like going under too.) (...and pity you.. and turnaround...and peek-a-boo...and blockhead...and Cameo...and Fresh...and Monster Man... and Don't Roof Rack Me Bro!)
lyrics were based off of a poem by john hinkley
EXPLAIN
Love it Love it.Remember taking the record to a school disco in 1983 and asking dj to play this track.He put it on and it cleared the floor in 6 secs flat.What a great moment of my teenage years.Thanx for posting
what were they playing before they dropped the Devo track?
I once was a DJ that cleared a dance floor with another Devo song, "Freedom Of Choice".
how has no one seen this yet? beautiful creepiness from one of the most unique and wonderful bands.
