The Deborah Harry song catalog you find on this page was compiled by me, the webmaster, with the help of my personal record collection, booklets, biographies, setlists, ASCAP, the LoC (Library of Congress), articles and (live) bootlegs. It's my goal to create a page which features Deborah's complete musical body of work, no matter if Deborah was in any way musically involved herself or whether she contributed her own lyrics to a project. In order to keep up the standard of this page and to make it grow you can help by submitting song titles and/or information which are missing on this site. Every contribution is greatly appreciated. Official song lyrics were taken from booklets. I transcribed those songs myself where no official lyrics were available (with no guarantee for their accuracy). I apologize for possible errors and will gladly take corrections. I kindly ask you not to copy any of these lyrics from this page.
All song pages include links to the albums, singles and/or live albums which they were released on. Best Ofs and soundtracks were only listed if there is a special mix available on the record or the song title itself was previously unreleased.

THE FRIENDLY LION

You can't know unless you've been there it's hard I know (it's hard to know I know) the air gets thin there

Lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete walls fluorescent halls so few things looking pretty sidewalks guide directions which befuddle trapped store keepers skeptics waste committee time screening pavement sweepers so I echo through the halls the friendly lions roar and preyed on things beyond the rings outlined for acts of war war war what is it for war what is it for war

You can't know unless you've been there it's hard I know (it's hard to know I know) the air gets thin there

Lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete walls fluorescent halls so few things looking pretty lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete walls fluorescent halls so few things looking pretty lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete walls fluorescent halls so few things looking pretty lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete walls fluorescent halls so few things looking pretty lions walking proud and free so out of place in the city concrete
