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.

INFO

lyrics by: David Cale
music by: Bill Ware

YOUR AMBIVALENCE

Well here we are again in the middle of nowhere
I know that if you could you'd live in the middle of nowhere
So go home with the waiter
What do I care?
You will anyway
Here comes your ambivalence
It drains the paint right off the ceiling
I would like to know where I stand
Just for once to end this evening
Someone told me somewhere they had seen you
Or some parking lot that claimed to be you
Holding up the traffic with your nightwear
Here's where I check out
Don't come running back to me
I'm not some kind of charity
The way you wear the tragedies
It's why I hate Los Angeles
Holding up the traffic with your nightwear
Here's where I check out
Have you met my latest fear?
It's got a name so you can call it
It comes out whenever you're near
Pet its head or just ignore it
I dreamed I could change myself
I turned into a box of candy
You came by and opened me, said 'Oh my favorite, cherry brandy!'
