Moyet later described how her song "Goodbye 70's" had been inspired by her disillusionment with how the late-1970s punk scene had turned out, saying, "'Goodbye 70's' is about punk and not caring how you were dressed, and then I discovered that so many of my friends that I'd thought it all really meant something to just saw it as another trend... That's what 'Goodbye 70's' was all about, about how sour the whole thing became."
First time, baby, when I saw your face;
I knew for a fact that it was a love you case.
I was strong to you, like bee-seeking honey.
It was all about the love; not all about the money.
You were an easy rider;
I was a sneaky spider.
Caught you in my net, ha, just like that.
'Cause, baby, you know what? This is where it's at.
If I could tell you how much I really care for you.
If I could show you how far I really go.
'Cause to you...
So what about the times when I hold you tight?
And what about the days; what about the nights?
What about the truth; what about the lies,
And what about a kiss before a goodbye?
Before a goodbye...
Hey, you looking this good just has to be a crime.
So sitting and waiting is a waste of time.
Things are getting better; forget about the weather.
The only real thing is you and me, together.
Come, let us do the twist and shout.
Love is what it's all about.
Same old, same old hunting chase.
I'm coming right at you; in your face.
I knew for a fact that it was a love you case.
I was strong to you, like bee-seeking honey.
It was all about the love; not all about the money.
You were an easy rider;
I was a sneaky spider.
Caught you in my net, ha, just like that.
'Cause, baby, you know what? This is where it's at.
If I could tell you how much I really care for you.
If I could show you how far I really go.
'Cause to you...
So what about the times when I hold you tight?
And what about the days; what about the nights?
What about the truth; what about the lies,
And what about a kiss before a goodbye?
Before a goodbye...
Hey, you looking this good just has to be a crime.
So sitting and waiting is a waste of time.
Things are getting better; forget about the weather.
The only real thing is you and me, together.
Come, let us do the twist and shout.
Love is what it's all about.
Same old, same old hunting chase.
I'm coming right at you; in your face.
