Wendy Sadd Lyrics
Lost in the night, out on the streets
And blown into the wind
She was just heading for trouble
When they got her downstairs
Cut by the lights, strands of her hair
Just tumble from her cheeks
She's just another Caucasian in a crime worn day
Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
Lost in the night, somebody said go easy on the girl
You'll never get a confession
If you treat her that way
Two pairs of eyes shout at her face and late into the night
They heard a softer whisper saying
"Let me go"
Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
Wendy sadd has flown away
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of Wendy sadd
Somebody shouts, something is wrong and panick hits the room
They said she looked at the ceiling and the lights went out
Clutched in her hand
All they could find was a letter that she'd wrote
It said try and forgive them
For what they've done
Inside her heart was breaking
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
Wendy sadd has flown away
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of Wendy sadd
And blown into the wind
She was just heading for trouble
When they got her downstairs
Just tumble from her cheeks
She's just another Caucasian in a crime worn day
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
You'll never get a confession
If you treat her that way
Two pairs of eyes shout at her face and late into the night
They heard a softer whisper saying
"Let me go"
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of Wendy sadd
They said she looked at the ceiling and the lights went out
Clutched in her hand
All they could find was a letter that she'd wrote
It said try and forgive them
For what they've done
No-one knew what she'd been through
Inside her mind's escaping
To a world that no-one knew
Wendy found her freedom
No-one else could follow there
Not inside the world of Wendy sadd

Marty about Wendy Sadd: This was based on the kind of police brutality that you meet in certain sections of America. I saw the song, like I see most of the others, as a mini film with a very sad dejected girl falling into the hands of a very powerful authority. The actual name ‘Wendy Sadd’ comes from Top of the Pops, where there used to be a girl – or she may still work there for all I know – called Wendy Sadd. When Ricky came home and said he had met a girl by that name, I said that is an incredible name and should be a title of a song. So, Wendy Sadd is actually a real name.
