Darlin’ darlin’ darlin’
I can’t wait to see you
Your picture ain’t enough
I can’t wait to touch you in the flesh
Darlin’ darlin’ darlin’
I can’t wait to hear you
Remembering your love
Is nothing without you in the flesh

Went walking one day on the lower East side
Met you with a girlfriend, you were so divine
She said, “Hands off this one sweetie, this boy is mine.”
I couldn’t resist you – I’m not deaf, dumb, and blind

Darlin’ darlin’ darlin’
Now you’re out of town
Those girls that you run with
They bring my head down
Ooh Darlin’ darlin’
Watch out if I see you
‘Cause if you say hello
It’ll mean you wanna see me in the flesh

Ooh warm and soft, in the flesh
Ooh close and hot, in the flesh
Ooh

About Lyrics and In The Flesh by Blondie

The lyrics to In The Flesh are just the words, phrases, verses and chorus that Blondie used when the song was created in 1976. The lyrics to In The Flesh have both easy-to-spot meanings and hidden metaphors that have been discussed by the music press and fans, but only Blondie and any collaborators know all of the inspirations for the song.

If you like etymology or breaking apart phrases and words, it is easy to understand the lyrics to In The Flesh by Blondie. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to In The Flesh" means the words set to the music of In The Flesh, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Blondie. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to In The Flesh and the lyrics to In The Flesh are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Blondie who came here looking just for the lyrics to In The Flesh, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
