Respectable Lyrics
by Mel & Kim
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable.
It's our occupation
We're a dancing nation
We keep the pressure on every nigh
Explanations are complications
We don't need to know the where or why.
Taking chances
Bold advances
Don't care if you think we're out of line.
Conversation is interrogation
Get out of here
We just don't have the time.
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable.
Like us
Hate us
But you'll never change us
We ain't ever gonna be respectable.
Hesitation is iust frustration
Give us the music and we're all right.
On each occasion
For your information
We can look after ourselves all right.
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
Fascination is our sensation
We like to put ourselves on the line.
Recreation is our destination
So don't wait up for us tonight.
Take or leave us
Only please believe us
Take or leave us
Only please believe us

Mel and Kim erano un duo pop britannico formato dalle sorelle Melanie e Kim Appleby. Hanno raggiunto il successo tra il 1986 e il 1988, prima che Melanie cedesse a una malattia terminale. Il loro stile musicale era caratterizzato da ritmi synth-pop orecchiabili e testi semplici ma accattivanti. Il loro brano più famoso è «Respectable», un inno alla forza femminile che ha raggiunto la vetta delle classifiche britanniche nel 1987. Altri successi includono «Showing Out (Get Fresh)», «The Look of Love» e «Love Machine». La tragica scomparsa di Melanie Appleby a soli 24 anni ha segnato la fine del duo, lasciando un vuoto nel panorama musicale pop degli anni '80.
