She Blinded Me With Science Lyrics
[Chorus]
Ha, it's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mm, but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
Failed me in biology, hey, huh, huh
[Interlude]
Now, ooh
Huh, huh
[Verse 1]
When I'm dancing close to her
Blinding me with science, science
Science
I can smell the chemicals
Blinding me with science, science
Science
Science
[Chorus]
Mm now, but it's poetry in motion
When she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
Sweet as any harmony
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
Failed me in geometry (Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)
[Verse 2]
When she's dancing next to me
Blinding me with science, science
Science
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm
I can hear machinery
Blinding me with science, science
Science
[Chorus]
Ha, it's poetry in motion
Now she's making love to me
The spheres are in commotion
The elements in harmony
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
And hit me with technology (Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)
[Interlude]
Good heavens, Miss Sakamoto, you're beautiful
[Bridge]
I, I don't believe it, there she goes again
She's tidied up and I can't find anything
All my tubes and wires and careful notes
And antiquated notions
[Chorus]
But it's poetry in motion
When she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Oh, she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with— (Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)

What did Thomas Dolby say about "She Blinded Me With Science"?
The first thing I got was the title—that sometimes happened with my songs. The next thing that happened was the groove, and then I fleshed it out, partly from the cinematic implications. I started thinking about the video quite early on, and at that point I had put out a couple of singles that had v...
