From the recording The Waiting Game
Rock - Recorded by Bill on 1999 release Raise A Ruckus, now out of print, but no worries, here's the story straight from the Fly herself. Rich Brotherton electric rhythm guitar, bass and tambourine, Bill Kirchen lead electric guitar, mighty Rick Richards on drums, wait for the end ... did he swat the fly?
Lyrics
FLY ON YOUR JACKET
Louise Kirchen
I WANNA BE A FLY ON YOUR JACKET
RIDING AROUND ON YOUR LAPEL
SO I CAN SPY ON YOUR RACKET
HEAR ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEVER TELL
I’LL LAY BACK AND LISTEN
I’LL BE SO QUIET YOU WON’T KNOW THAT I’M THERE
WHILE YOU ARE WHISPERING
SWEET SOMETHINGS IN HER PERFUMED HAIR
OOOOH I’M GONNA GETCHA
WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT ME TO
WHEN I FINALLY CATCH YOU
DOING ALL THE THINGS I SUSPECT YOU DO
WHENEVER I’M NOT NEXT TO YOU
YOU SAY IT’S NO BIG THING, WELL
IF THAT’S THE CASE DO IT ON YOUR OWN
ACT AS IF YOU’RE SINGLE
AND YOU MAY BE BEFORE TOO LONG
TO SEE YOU WITH ANOTHER
CUTS DEEPER THAN THE TWIST OF A KNIFE
THAT’S WHY I WANNA BLOW YOUR COVER
AND BUST THE BUBBLE OF YOUR DOUBLE LIFE
OOOOH I’M GONNA GETCHA
WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT ME TO
AND WHEN I FINALLY CATCH YOU
DOING ALL THE THINGS I SUSPECT YOU DO
WHENEVER I’M NOT NEXT TO YOU
I WANNA BE A FLY ON YOUR JACKET
RIDING AROUND ON YOUR LAPEL
SO I CAN SPY ON YOUR RACKET
HEAR ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEVER TELL
HEAR ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEVER TELL
HEAR ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NE-EH-EH-EH-EH-VER TELL
