Phil Collins - Do You Know, Do You Care Lyrics






You said you would, you didn't and I wanna know why
And don't make no excuses
You promised, you promised, you better explain
Tho' I don't know what the use is
You said you could, you couldn't, now why did you lie
You made it look so easy
You did it, why do it, what was your point?
Laughing while you tease me

Oh, do you know and do you care?

I said I did, I shouldn't cos the magic will go
It happened once before
You'll see it, you'll steal it and take it away
And then come back for more
Don't say you weren't, you were 'cos I saw you myself
It's too late for your reason
You're lying, you're lying, you've done it this time
I'm sick of all the cheating

Oh, well do you know and do you care?

'Cos I watch you
oo every day I watch you pass me by
I'll get you
Yes in the end I'll get you
Just watch me try

Oh you make it hard to be hard but I'm trying my best
Cos down inside I'm burnin'
You want it, you get it, now take it and run
I'll hide how much it's hurtin'

Oh, well do you know and do you care?
Oh, well do you know and do you care?

Phil Collins Do You Know, Do You Care Comments
  1. l.... c....

    The theme song of Moon and Venus in Scorpio people (including Phil w/Moon).

  2. R.... H....

    2020 🔥🔥🔥🔥

  3. G.... J....

    One of the greatest artists to ever live in my opinion.
    Brilliant singer in my opinion.

  4. G.... J....

    Oh those Taurus pedals!

  5. G.... J....

    This song certainly is an angst-ridden one I think.

  6. S.... D....

    If I ended up auditioning at Hot Shot in Black Mirror’s “15 Million Merits,” this would be the Phil Collins song I would sing during the audition. It would be a secret way to lash out on the judges for enslaving me to earn Merits on a stationary bike for a living. (Note: The beats in this Phil Collins song is similar to the beats of Pink Floyd’s “Have a Cigar”)

  7. D.... H....

    38 people don't know or care

  8. O.... ....

    This better be in GTA VI.

  9. N.... B....

    PERFECT he cheated on me divorce song.

  10. G.... J....

    Phil was a brilliant singer I think! He could sing in a loud voice and a soft voice too.

  11. G.... J....

    Powerful voice!
    An angst-ridden song in
    my opinion.

  12. M.... H....

    Great track, very understimated

  13. G.... J....

    Album recorded in May-June '82 when Phil
    was 31 !! (Hello I Must
    Be Going).

  14. G.... J....

    Very dramatic song with angst-ridden lyrics and a
    powerful delivery on the vocals!!!

  15. k.... m....

    The nearest Phil got to sounding like Genesis,solo

  16. T.... B....

    Sublime 💯💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

  17. G.... T....

    Lyrically . Phil is like Moses , revealing to mankind the greatest open secrets .

  18. G.... J....

    Angst-ridden song!
    Powerful vocals too!
    Spring 1982 the album
    was recorded when Phil
    was 31.

  19. G.... J....

    Such a dramatic song!
    Very intense too.
    Brilliant vocals.

  20. p.... ....

    The little Phil spitting out all of his anger out... for our greatest listening pleasure !

  21. O.... s....

    He ripped off Nine Inch Nail's eraser in this one

    O.... s....

    I hear a bit of Reptile in the beginning too.

    O.... s....

    mr5elfde5truct yeah for sure

  22. r.... ....

    I remember listening to this song 5 times in a row when I heard it for the first time. I was so blown away by it. Rightfully so, it's a great song with a lot of emotion. Still love it!

    r.... ....

    YES!!!! BOUT TO LISTEN FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN A ROW 🤣

  23. G.... L....

    Dark masterpiece

  24. C.... P....

    I like Angry Phil.

  25. H.... K....

    dis dude is angry man, and making good music :)

  26. R.... A....

    Fantastic tune, love Phil, but the first time I heard it the start made me s*** myself...

  27. l.... ....

    Huge chapter of my life. Locked in my room, reading and memorizing the lyrics sleeve. Then going into basement to play the drums.. 12 years old... now 47 and still hits my soul

  28. E.... R....

    Nossa que musica top suave suave suave .phil collins talentoso.

  29. D.... S....

    I love it all. It's all enjoyable! Peter vs. Phil arguement is futile. Dang it! Just listen and enjoy. Pretty simple, right? Why do people complicate things? I've been a Phil fan since March '84, then a Genesis fan, etc.

  30. S.... P....

    This song sends a VERY clear message: Don't provoke Phil.

    S.... P....

    Moon in Scorpio be like...

  31. C.... M....

    This song should have been on Miami Vice!

    C.... M....

    Damn straight - it's just BEGGING to be used in some kind of 80's themed movie or show. :)

    C.... M....

    the show or movie? and why, perhaps?

    C.... M....

    Great call!

  32. B.... B....

    Never forget what I messed up.

  33. Y.... ....

    richtig geil

  34. D.... M....

    I am a good guy this is Collins most toughest out going songs of all time Phil Collins is the man it reminds me how I can revenge on niggas did me wrong in the past in that classroom payback is a muthafucker aint it this song goes hard. Phil Collins is a beast what a legend and good drummer plus singer.

  35. L.... J....

    Give me this over anything in the charts these days

  36. D.... C....

    So angry

  37. p.... m....

    does anybody care at all ????

  38. R.... E....

    Such a powerful song!

  39. G.... C....

    Sad but a lot of heart and truthfulness

  40. l.... ....

    Phil Collins is the Einstein of the popular music.

  41. M.... D....

    Love all his music

  42. B.... T....

    Great Song and terribly underestimated...you did it! why do it!? what was your point!?

  43. m.... f....

    massive

  44. a.... m....

    Great song...you can tell he was extremely pissed off

    a.... m....

    Definitely. It took him his first two solo albums just to get through his divorce ordeal. I gotta believe this song was directed at his ex...

  45. F.... H....

    Bad Ass Tune.

  46. A.... V....

    Wow this song is very underrated. Phil Collins epitomizes 80's.

  47. p.... m....

    'cause of his wife

  48. D.... W....

    Besides expressing his own personal feelings in this song, I believe he was also expressing the mood of the time in Britain. The concrete structures of the 60's had gone a depressing grey by the 80's. He sums up the mood of the time beautifully in this track.

    D.... W....

    +Daniel Woodward He did a great job inspiring me to be the woman that I was born to be....!

  49. j.... ....

    4 jumpy ´jamörz´ ^ ^

    j.... ....

    +jutubaeh end volumes ?

    j.... ....

    +jutubaeh this record is so un90s ^^

  50. S.... -....

    Phil at his best...most of his songs were pissed off songs. Bad ass!


    "Do You Know, Do You Care"


    You said you would, you didn't and I wanna know why
    And don't make no excuses
    You promised, you promised, you better explain
    Tho' I don't know what the use is
    You said you could, you couldn't, now why did you lie
    You made it look so easy
    You did it, why do it, what was your point?
    Laughing while you tease me

    Oh, do you know and do you care?

    I said I did, I shouldn't cos the magic will go
    It happened once before
    You'll see it, you'll steal it and take it away
    And then come back for more

    Oh, well do you know and do you care?
    Oh, well do you know and do you care?

  51. F.... H....

    Drank maakt meer kapot dan je lief is!

  52. P.... ....

    Do you know, do you care is the shit even after all these years!

  53. M.... L....

    pre-cursor to Mama...i thought....I played the b side "Do you know, Do you care?" over the a side, til it turned white in fact

    M.... L....

    @Mason Leightle such a bad ass song!

  54. R.... ....

    This goes in the "Tunes for Stalkers" play list. Phil was at his best when he was angry.

  55. b.... ....

    Much prefer his darker more artistic side!

    b.... ....

    bassmanjoe Me too.

  56. T.... ....

    His first two solo efforts are his finest albums. This album I bought on CD in late November, 1997 (after getting into Genesis a few months earlier thanks to the Abacab album) and this album is just as good (if not better) as Face Value (which was a hard act to follow). Shame classic rock radio won't touch this track. In fact he played all but guitar on this track (Daryl Stuermer is on guitars as always) but Phil played drums, keyboards, bass pedals, percussion and TRUMPET (his trumpet playing debut on record) as well as singing. This album had three cheery tracks (all in either C or G) and the rest were in either minor keys (like this, I Don't Care Anymore, Thru These Walls and The West Side) and in flat keys but great songs (including two in A flat which always haunts me, especially the closer Why Can't It Wait 'Til Morning).

    T.... ....

    +TJRROCKSPONGE wot keyz do kcluster use ?

    T.... ....

    +jutubaeh can / could you hear the track broadth of a final mix ? just asking ^^

    T.... ....

    +jutubaeh wouldnt you just have to count o0

    T.... ....

    +bucky468 why would you assume such ? dr winston jfk ? maybe this was too strange ? i mean ´kansas´ ^^
    ok a ´low shoot´ once in a weill rite ?

    T.... ....

    +jutubaeh i mean radio stations hat .com$ rite o0

  57. E.... W....

    Nothing better than a pissed off Phil.

    E.... W....

    Totally agree Eric oh yes!
    Brilliant artist

    E.... W....

    @Kavinsky Smith

    What was going on there?😯

    E.... W....

    @manisch kreativ DSP, DarkSyde phil, used to be a videogame playthrough guy when youtube started and got real popular given most people couldnt afford to have games during the economic crysis

    so people would watch HIM to get the experience of playing the games for themselves.

      only for it to turn out he was terrible at his job, a job of playing video games of all things, and a pathologicial liar to boot,

     hence why when other better gameplay video hosts showed up for said games and gameplay videos, such as Birigirpall, life or borris, everyone dumped the guy like a 10 ton sack of crap and moved on to better far more entertaining people to watch, and even then he is STILL e begging and ranting and raving and making crappy gameplay videos like crazy to this day,

    E.... W....

    @Kavinsky Smith

    What the hell🙈

    Oh no, this ruined my view.

    Okay, I pretend that I never heard of it.

    But thank you for replying ❤

    E.... W....

    @manisch kreativ Dont worry you'd be doing what everyone else is doing, believe me lol

  58. T.... ....

    Best Collins solo track for me , Taurus pedals growling away :)

    T.... ....

    His best solo album period!

    T.... ....

    Tubeplate1 might not be Taurus pedals.

    T.... ....

    @Spazzoid Studio I bet Daryl brought his pedals to the studio.

    T.... ....

    @Spazzoid Studio It definitely is a Taurus, it has a very distinct sound.

  59. g.... m....

    I CARE VERY MUCH FOR THIS SONG !

  60. p.... m....

    the  best legends  of  rock  are  ours

  61. M.... ....

    " thank god for us ""OLD"" people...who pass on the greatest music the younger generation will ever know.""""YOU ROCK""" " - Andrew E
    Bitch please, you didn't do shit.

  62. m.... ....

    This is one of Phil Collins' songs that made me stop loving his music. Now I simply idolise him

    m.... ....

    mk1984 ??????

  63. A.... E....

    thank god for us ""OLD"" people...who pass on the greatest music the younger generation will ever know.""""YOU ROCK"""

  64. B.... G....

    te-ma-sooo!!!!

  65. N.... ....

    He means the guy's dick... With whom she cheated on him...

  66. H.... T....

    I think it's about the time when he was in a park feeding nuts to a squirrel XD

  67. J.... T....

    NWO ILLUMINATI!!!!!! Why do you think Michael Jackson was killed? And Tupac?

    J.... T....

    Your right.

  68. G.... ....

    Do you know? And do you care?

  69. T.... S....

    Kinda like "Mama" from the album "Genesis"

  70. T.... S....

    My favorite thing about this cassette, when I was in college in the 80's, was flipping it over and finding "The West Side" pretty close to ready to play with minimal "adjustments". I need to find this on CD or get my wife to download the album for me.

  71. u.... ....

    I bought this casette in June 1990. Good times.

  72. S.... d....

    I still have the cassette, too.

  73. G.... ....

    Exactly! -just like Bruce Springsteen, it seems to channel the best in them

  74. G.... ....

    That piano towards the end is EPIC. BTW I really take this song to heart thinking about my ex-gf.

  75. j.... ....

    phil at his best - angry

  76. t.... ....

    You can test your loyalty with Flaming Youth from 1969/1970 - particularly Changes. I happen to like it, but it goes back even before his time with Genesis. You can find clips right here on yt. You might want to refrain for doing yt searches "Bugaloos" (which he almost was one, and if so, we probably aren't talking about him now as he probably would have missed the Genesis boat) and Calamity the Cow.

  77. D.... S....

    @bassmanjoe I don't like that song regardless of the who does it lol

  78. b.... ....

    Words cannot express the love I have for this man's music. I love him in Genesis and solo as well. It's funny when I hear some people talk of his voice not being as expressive as Gabriel's. While Gabriel had a delightful "quirkiness" to his voice, Phil is every bit as brilliant. I absolutely love Phil's music.

  79. b.... ....

    My favorite album from him, the only song i don't like his his version of You Can't Hurry Love.

  80. j.... ....

    @paullavan2011 careful. im a housewife & i only listen to this album

  81. k.... ....

    Phil at his finest. No other album came close for me. And yes, I still have the cassette but it barely plays anymore!

  82. C.... ....

    @Fustware the !!signed!! divorce papers? ;)

  83. b.... ....

    dudes cassetts are still cool I still have mine and fyi you can even get a sony walkman on amazon for like 20 bucks and boom boxes to

    b.... ....

    batman66ism cassettes are the worst format ever.

  84. a.... ....

    They days of ANYONE KNOWING who PHIL COLLINS is are fading. OMG :( YIKES ! I will always LOVE YOU PHIL. YOU made my life memorable with the soundtrack you provided. THANK YOU SIR !

  85. R.... ....

    This has to be one of the best F*(& You tunes ever written. Goes hand in hand with I Don't Care Anymore and Just A Job To Do.

  86. J.... C....

    Why can't music sound like anymore?! What happened to the emotion in music? Pretty much everything that's mainstream today sounds the same and 99.9% of it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  87. p.... ....

    COLOSSAL SONG.

  88. o.... ....

    one person doesn't know and doesn't care...

  89. j.... ....

    powerful

  90. t.... ....

    @Fustware yes ... but when he would get depressed more often, he won't be so good ;)

  91. t.... ....

    @Fustware I think it's all about that his wife betrayed him. She wanted to have somebody to love, then she got it, but Phil doesn't want her anymore, so she must run :D

  92. t.... ....

    @Featster74 I also have cassette, what a luck was for me when I found it :)

  93. F.... ....

    Gotta grab this on CD or something. Is it bad I still have the cassette I got for a birthday present? Its been well played. Rock on, Phil!

  94. t.... ....

    @OneLoneMongoose you're welcome :)

  95. t.... ....

    @CaprimusicGLP full of emotions :)

  96. C.... ....

    Love Collins's dark side.

  97. C.... ....

    Love Collins's dark side.

  98. t.... ....

    @GenesisFanatic110 all for you :)

  99. t.... ....

    @firstmusic00 you're welcome, it's my plesure :)

  100. {.... S....

    YessssSSSSssssSSsssSSsss, sir!!!! ;) WONDERFUL vocals.
