Hall & Oates - Did It In A Minute Lyrics






When you find yourself alone
And when going out is coming home
Well, you can count on the kid
'Cause there's nobody waiting around
Oh-oh, if you're not an easy mark
It's a shot in the dark that hits the heart
And I know, I know, I know, I know
When it's coming
(I thought so anyway)
Some things stay the same
And some are due for change
I thought I had them all nailed down
But you turned it around

Oh you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute
(You did it)
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute
(You did it)

Well I still can't say I know
When a love is real or touch and go
And if two can be one
Who is the one two becomes, oh-oh
Am I quick enough to see
When I'm ready and it's right for me
I say, I say, I say, I say that I want it
I think so anyway
Everybody always laughs at love
But what they want is to be proven wrong
Then you came along

Oh you did it
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute
(You did it)
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
Oh-ooooh-oh
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute
(You did it)

(I know, I know, I know, I know)
I know you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it, you did it in a minute
(You did it)
I didn't really plan it
But you did it, you did it, you did it
You did it, you did it in a minute
(You did it)
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
Oh-ooooh-oh
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it, you did it in a minute
(You did it)
I want someone to prove I'm wrong
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it, you did it in a minute
(You did it)
(I know, I know, I know, I know)
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it, you did it in a minute
(You did it)
You're messing with my love life
(You did it, you did it, you did it)
You did it, you did it, you did it
You did it in a minute

    You can count on the kid
    'Cause there's nobody waiting around

    Oh, oh, if you're not an easy mark
    It's a shot in the dark that hits the heart
    And I know, I know when it's coming
    I thought so anyway

    Somethings stay the same
    And some are due for a change
    I thought I had them all nailed down

    But you turned it around, boy
    You did it, you did it
    You did it, you did it
    You did it in a minute
    You did it

    You did it in a minute
    You did it

    Well, I still can't say I know
    When a love is real or touch and go
    And if two can be one
    Who is the one two becomes

    Oh, oh, am I quick enough to see
    When I'm ready and it's right for me
    I say, I say, I say, I say
    That I want it, I think so anyway

    Everybody always laughs at love
    But what they want is to be proven wrong
    Then you came along

    Oh, you did it, you did it

  39. B.... ....

    A bit of the odd & peculiar production story on this song. The studio version of "Did It In A Minute" appeared on the "Private Eyes" album in 1981, in sort of a much more anemic sounding, programmed type of style. This video here, a 'promotional rock video' if you will, was shot on some sort of sound stage in front of a studio audience, but when the audio track was mixed in post-production, the audience's "yelling, shouting, clapping and applauding" was mixed out for whatever, oddball reason. THEN, to make it even weirder, later that year, Hall & Oates appeared on Canadian television's SCTV's "The Sammy Maudlin Show" and performed it as a parody of themselves performing it (if that makes any sense) in front of the live SCTV audience BUT they "lip-synced" to this very audio track on THIS previously recorded live video! Huh, you may ask? Well, the SCTV piece looked fairly convincing, ONLY until the end, when the band attempted to do a VERY REAL HARD CRESCENDO ENDING...and the net effect was both Hall & Oats and the other 3 members of their band, TOTALLY, 100%, PREMIUM, GRADE-A, ROYALLY...MUFFED IT!!! They all tried to do the "Pete-Townsend-Arm-Slamming-Down-On-The-Strings" type-of-ending on their instruments and it ended up looking like the kids on Romper Room & Sesame Street, trying to play air guitar!!! It was a total frickin' train-wreck! I know I still have that on a VCR-VHS tape recording...I have to upload it...so EVERYONE could get a big laugh out of it! - BCRadio

    B.... ....

    So you come on here and want everyone to laugh at Hall & Oates? Hmm...

  40. E.... V....

    The flashing gave me a seizure. Thanks Haulin' Oats, you did it in a minute.

  41. m.... ....

  43. m.... ....

    ああ美しい・・・。欲を言えばもっとベーシストを映してほしいです・・・・。ドラムも頑張ってますね・・・。

  44. W.... M....

    @Shawn Lennox Micky returned to play on several tracks on the DIFL album, and Daryl's Laughing Down Crying, and also on some overdubs on the Box Set from 2009.

  54. S.... Y....

    The intro alone takes me back to 1985 when I arrived in Chicago and was 10 yo.

    S.... Y....

    the beginning of the summer of 1982 for me.

  55. j.... ....

    j.... ....

  56. J.... T....

    love this song...daryl is hot!!

  57. L.... P....

    So fortunate to see them play 3 years in a row. They are absolutely the best ever! They have so many songs that are brilliantly written. Everytime I see them perform it is like the first time. My favorite is "Wait for me" and "I want to know you for a long time"

  58. S.... a....

    Was so happy to finally hear this live from them on their recent tour after years of seeing them and not hearing it as part of their set.

  59. J.... T....

    gosh...so love this video!

  60. k.... l....

    Conspiracy DID IT!! The red line is yellow. Gagnes AGAIN!!! it is still yellow at the very beginning. It is supposed to be solid red all the way across. The conspiracy is the K K K.

    k.... l....

    kimberly longman I'm lost

  61. M.... T....

    Great remenber of the year 1981

    M.... T....

    1982..     :-]

  62. P.... B....

    Saw them in Vienna VA last week - they played this song! So good!

  63. B.... T....

    #HallAndOates

  64. R.... ....

    Is the bass player one of Larry, Darryl and Darryl from Newhart?

    R.... ....

    I get it - LOL! Actually, here's some info on him. Not sure if you know. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Wolk

  65. j.... l....

    Now THAT is a Song.

  66. B.... D....

    Great song, OK video.

    B.... D....

    Bobby Daniels yeah

  67. M.... X....

    "Private Eyes" is my favorite album of theirs. It's filled with so many great tracks!

    M.... X....

    Mike X I like so much I went to a concert but I think something changed

    M.... X....

    Even covers of the L.P. s were so much artistic in this time, the early 1980s

    M.... X....

    Don’t think Private Eyes has a bad track on it. Phenomenal.

    M.... X....

    Deciding to produce their own albums was a good move. Risky, but good.

  68. m.... m....

    Been a fan since I was kid in the 70's and this still is my favorite. Not their best musical accomplishment, but nonetheless, one of my very favorites! These men have so much soul and pop righteousness! See you at Madison Square Garden-I'm soooo pumped!

  69. t.... ....

    Okay, that was dope. Where can I buy this version?

    t.... ....

    thekooosh should be on the live album they released from this tour

  70. j.... ....

    The GE Smith era was awesome indeed.

    j.... ....

    jaemsyt oh yeah. He was excellent on X Static too.

    j.... ....

    Yes, GE is sooo..... underrated in my opinion. He is as much of the H&O sound as anyone in the band. The way he makes his Tele and Strat sing moves me to no end. And T-bone, need I say more? Masterful musician!!!!!!

    j.... ....

    I love GE Smith. Here's an awesome guitarist.

  71. J.... L....

    One of the most CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED SONGS...EVER !

    J.... L....

    It did peak at #9, but I think it's a little underrated. It definitely belongs in the top 10. I think Possession Obsession is the most underrated which peaked at #30.

    J.... L....

    Perfect song: short, clean and tightly written. Absolutely great back-up vocal coordination, guitar riffs and ends in a way that you want to hear it again and again. Genius.

    J.... L....

    Many people have been arrested and incarcerated for underrating this song.

    J.... L....

    Billie is criminally overrated

    J.... L....

    Agree 100% ....not even a minor hit here in the UK [ to our eternal shame ]....THE chorus of all time - well, a contender anyway. Thanks for sharing this little masterpiece

  72. S.... M....

    Great song!

  73. S.... D....

    Mo-town philly....
