From their 1979 album Eat to the Beat

Lyrics:

No, I don't believe in luck.
No, I don't believe in circumstance no more.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world, so I won't believe in luck.
I saw you walking in the dark, so I slipped behind your footsteps for a while.
Caught you turning 'round the block...
Fancy meeting in a smaller world.
After all, accidents never happen.
Could have planned it all.
Precognition in my ears.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world.
Complications disappear.
Now you love me.
I, yeah, I can tell.
I never lied.
I never cried.
And you, you knew so well.
Like the Magi on the hill, I can divinate your presence from afar.
And I'll follow you until I can bring you to a perfect world.
Accidents never happen in a perfect world.
Accidents never happen.

  • love this record :D

  • I owned Eat to the Beat on tape cassette in 7th grade and played it till it wore out. This song is a fantasy of a "perfect world" where her determination to be with this guy is so powerful that it grants her psychic power and elevates her premeditated interaction with him to that of fate rather than mere "accident." Debbie's singing is so cool and laid back you almost don't notice how psychologically deep it is for a song about obsessive love.
