Abracadabra Lyrics

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinnin', round and round
Round and round and round it goes
Where it stops, nobody knows
Every time you call my name
I heat up lik a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame full of desire
Kiss me baby make let fire get higher

(CHORUS)
Abra abracadabra
I wanna reach out and grab ya
Abra abracadabra
Abracadabra

You make me hot, you make me sigh
You make me laugh, you make me cry
Keep me burnin' for your love
With the touch of a velvet glove

(CHORUS)

I feel the magic in your caress
I feel magic when I touch your dress
Silk and satin, leather and lace
Black panties with an angel's face
I see magic in your eyes
I hear the magic in your sighs
Just when I think I'm gonna get away
I hear those words that you always say

(CHORUS)

Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame full of desire
Kiss me baby let the fire get higher

I heat up I can't cool down
My situation goes round and round

Pssssst! I think this song is about "s-e-x". But don't quote me on that. ;)

Cover art for Abracadabra lyrics by Steve Miller Band

In the early 80's, the Classic Rock format began to become popular, and Steve Miller's older hits were revived.

However, Miller didn't realize this and wrote this this cheesey New Wave-esque song to get a hit, rather than sticking to his older stylings.

Abracadabra reached #1, and Stever Miller lost some fans for selling out and doing a musical style that was popular, but gained many more for it.

@Fluffyinsanity Yeah, he did lose some fans after this song was released but given how popular he was at the time, odds are he probably gained some new fans who, after listening to this, thought, "Not bad" and then went on to listen to his other works.

@Fluffyinsanity Agreed; this song reminds me of The Grateful Dead's "Touch of Grey"...a song that, when you listen to it, makes you think, "Not bad" and gets you to listen to more of their music.

"I heat up, I can't cool down You got me spinnin', round and round"

I'm turned on. My hot balls are blue. Keep re-deciding what I'm going to do.

"Round and round and round it goes :Where it stops, nobody knows"

Swervin' 'round a lotta bad ideas... (all I hear are onomatopoeias): Swirlin' down into her drink... (and ain't one soul'll know a thing to think).

"Every time you call my name I heat up lik a burnin' flame

See how she beg' for me, that P.Y.T? I know she' Aitch Un Gree. (No need for y'all to see; this G.H.B is so-so oh-so oh-so so-so yuh-hum-mee.)

"Burnin' flame full of desire Kiss me baby make let fire get higher"

Drink that cocktail ring-of-fire kiss-your-virgin-ass good-bye irrrr-rrrr-rrrr, rrrr-rrrr-rrrr— Her mind's go'n stuck on swirrrr (as her body's go'n higher.) Said her mind's go'n stuck on swirrrr (and her body's go'n higher.) That's right. Her mind's go'n stuck on swirrrr (but her body has gotten higher.)

"Abra abracadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya Abra abracadabra Abracadabra"

Teehee, I'm 17 and I love this song. I can only imagine what my friends would think, but oh well. I agree with Lulutine, it is pretty cheesy, but it's also really very catchy xD

I think he is angry in this moment

Cover art for Abracadabra lyrics by Steve Miller Band

I just think it's odd that this came out almost at the same time as America's "You Can Do Magic". Both great songs. Did they share a producer or co writer? Was one trying to cash in on the other? What's the real story?
