Gimme Danger Lyrics
Gimme danger, little stranger
And I feel with you at ease
Gimme danger, little stranger
And I feel your disease
[Pre-Chorus 1]
There's nothing in my dreams
Just some ugly memories
Kiss me like the ocean breeze
[Verse 2]
Now, if you will be my lover
I will shiver and sing
But if you can be my master
I will do anything
[Pre-Chorus 2]
There's nothing left alive
But a pair of glassy eyes
Raise my feelings one more time
[Chorus]
Find a little stranger
Find a little stranger
Say you're gonna feel my hand
Say, gotta gimme danger, wild little stranger
Honey, gonna feel my hand
Swear, you gonna feel my hand
Swear, you gonna feel my hand
Gimme danger
Little stranger
Gimme danger
Little stranger
Gimme danger
Little stranger
Gimme danger
Little stranger
Gimme danger
Gimme danger
Gotta feel me
Gotta feel me
Little stranger
About
About writing Gimme Danger, guitarist James Williamson said:
Not everybody knows that in those days I almost exclusively wrote songs on acoustic guitar. I’d sit up in my room with a little acoustic guitar, because I didn’t make a lot of noise and disturb the neighbors. I also liked the tonal qualities of the acoustic – you can really hear the notes quite well.
So anyway, I was fooling around and just came up with those chord patterns – the beginning patterns of that song – and fleshed it out from there. It was a very convoluted process of actually stringing all that stuff together, but once it did come together, immediately it was like, a song. It was very quick from there on out.
