Headlong Lyrics

And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping and there's nothin'
You can do about it
There's nothin' you can do
No there's nothin' you can do about it
No there's nothin' you can, nothin' you can
Nothin' you can do about it

And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping no there's nothin'
You can do about it
Yeah

Hey, he used to be a man with a stick in his hand
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy do
She used to be a woman with a hot dog stand
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy do
Now you've got soup in the laundry bag
Now you've got strings, you're gonna lose your rag
You're gettin' in a fight
Then it ain't so groovy when you're screaming in the night
Let me out of this cheap 'B' movie
Headlong down the highway and you're rushing
Headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping and you can't stop rockin'
And there's nothin' you can, nothin' you can
Nothin' you can do about it

When a red hot man meets a white hot lady
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy do (ho)
Soon the fire starts a raging gets 'em more than half crazy
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy do
Oh, now they start freaking everyway you turn
You can't start walking 'cos your feet got burned
It ain't no time to figure wrong from right
Cause reasons out the window
Better hold on tight - you're rushing headlong
Headlong out of control, yeah
You think you're so strong
There ain't no stopping and there's nothin' you, nothin' you
Nothin' you can do about it at all
Yeah yeah alright go
And you're rushing headlong down the highway
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping
There's nothin', nothin', nothin' you can do about it, yeah
Oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh
Ha ha
Headlong
Headlong
Rushing rushing, rushing rushing
Yeah yeah yeah
Rushing rushing, rushing rushing
Headlong
Yeahaw
Headlong

Gnoldaeh gnoldaeh gnoldaeh gnoldaeh

The song is about how you're trying to live for real, and all kinds of shit and shitmen surrounding you interfere.

I think it about the fantastic portability of Batchelor's Cuppa Soup.

Hence the line about "soup in the laundry bag" - you can even take it down the lauderette!

IMO it seems like a crazy relationship with extreme ups and downs, that both parties rushed into "headlong" without thinking it through. "When a red hot man meets a white hot lady...Soon the fire starts a raging gets 'em more than half crazy." BUT I'm a hopeless romantic so I tend to see everything as being about relationships in some way, so take that with a grain of salt. Regardless, it's a damn good song. I used to be too much of a snob to enjoy simpler rock tunes like this, but now I've grown up a bit. :P

I don't think anyone knows what it means - but it's an awesome song!

Wasn't this song released shortly after Freddie was diagnosed with AIDs? I think he's singing about his new outlook on life from that point on.

Many of the lyrics in this song seem like gibberish however I do believe the main meaning of this song is the idea of rushing into things ill-prepared, rushing into something headlong is like jumping into something head first without thinking about consequences.

It's a great song, but what is 'gnoldaeh'??? It sounds more like 'horny' to me!

Cover art for Headlong lyrics by Queen

oooh that's wicked! I always wondered what they were saying... Gotta love the "Hoop diddy diddy"'s! haha Yes i think it is mostly giberish..."Soup in the laundry bag"?? But it's fun gibberish!
