    Lyrics
    Bang bang you're dead
    Did not, did too
    Stop diddy-bopping buddy
    Bouncing Betty on you
    Bang bang you're dead
    Did not, did too
    Stop diddy-bopping buddy
    Bouncing Betty on you
    I try to tell you but you just don't understand
    You've got my entire life in your hands
    Vive le rock, vive le rock
    Oh well, you don't know what you're missing
    'Cos you don't know what you got
    And if the enemy don't see it your way
    Be smart, play dead, live to fight a new day
    And vive le rock, vive le rock
    Oh well you don't know what you're missing
    'Cos you don't know what you got
    Vive le rock, vive le rock
    Vive le rock
    If this is it then I'm afraid it's not enough
    Here's Johnny and he's calling your bluff
    Vive le rock, vive le rock
    Oh well you don't know what you're doing
    'Cos you don't know what is what
    Vive le rock, vive le rock
    (Look out! rockers going Starwars!)
    Bang bang you're dead
    Did not, did too
    Stop diddy-bopping buddy
    Bouncing Betty on you
    Bang bang you're dead
    Did not, did too
    Stop diddy-bopping buddy
    Bouncing Betty on you
    You're scratching records but you won't be scratching mine
    Don't give me chish-chash in rinky-dink time
    Just vive le rock, vive le rock
    Well I've been where I was going
    And it's not Tom of Finland
    Vive le rock, vive le rock
    Vive le rock
    Bang bang you're dead
    Did not, did too
    Stop diddy-bopping buddy
    Bouncing Betty on you
    Look Ma, I'm on top of the world

      Ditto. I have everything from him going back to Dirk Wears White Sox, but I stopped listening to him after Strip. I've just recently heard "newer stuff" and should catch up to now.

    Andre Cymone originally the bass player in Prince's first band, then writer/producer for Jody Watley sending her into the stratosphere. Then, he produced Adam Ant including CAN'T SET RULES ABOUT LOVE. Genius!!!!!

      🎶 Hoist up Jolly Roger! 🎶☠
      Omg, who wouldn't want to have Adam and the Ants stow away on the Black Pearl! You hear drumming from the cargo hold, some of them just banging on the hull of the ship. .... and it's mutiny! Omg what a fight scene! What a soundtrack! A few bits of comic relief - e.g. "This is not the Boston massacre - you sir are underdressed!" , culminating in Adam putting the point of his sword to Jack Sparrow's throat, ordering him to - say it w/me, now - "STAND AND DELIVER!"

    When I was at uni, there was a (hot) guy there, called Eddie.... He used to work at Vivienne Westwood's Leeds shop.... I was customising t-shirts, for my degree show.... And he brought some of Vivienne Westwood's actual t-shirts in for me to look at.... I've got photos somewhere!! How awesome is that.... He was one cool dude tho.... Well out of my league, or so I thought.... But.... Now I think, he wasn't even in painting, and I didn't know him that well, and he brought Vivienne Westwood's own t-shirts in.... FFS.... Why am I so effing gormless!! I love this song and video, and you're as hot and correct as always. Thank you Adam Ant!! Kx

    The lyrics to Vive Le Rock were posted in the description box by mistake...
    So here are the lyrics to Can't Set Rules About Love:
    I feel suspended in space,
    In another time and place,
    To talk would burst the bubble
    Just want to lie next to you,
    And appreciate the view,
    And hope it lasts forever
    We do not have to play games
    Or listen to all the names
    They have for russian roulette,
    If it's good enough for the gemini guys,
    Then it's good enough for me
    You can't set rules about love,
    You can't set rules about love,
    So the I becomes we,
    We make our own chemistry,
    To move is too much trouble
    I hope we won't separate,
    Return to our normal state,
    As long as we're together
    We do not have to play games
    Or listen to all the names
    They have for russian roulette
    If it's good enough for the gemini guys,
    Then it's good enough for me
    You can't set rules about love,
    No no,
    You can't set rules about love
    So if it's yes or it's no,
    Chime time says the radio,
    Why don't you kiss me deadly
    If and when you slip away,
    Just don't let me hear you say
    Good morning and goodbye
    We do not have to play games
    Or listen to all the names
    They have for russian roulette
    If it's good enough for the gemini guys,
    Then it's good enough for me
    You can't set rules about love,
    Oh no,
    You can't set rules about-
    Revolution -- the fourth and final part,
    (You can't set rules about love)
    Resolution -- afterplay with my heart,
    (You can't set rules about love)
    [repeat until the end]

    I see a lot of comments about Keith Richards and Jack Sparrow. Whatever. This is the real Jack Sparrow. I don’t remember KR doing much besides wearing maybe a headband before Adam Ant, honestly. The kerchiefs? The makeup? The historical references? Show me. Been watching them since the 60’s, but gotta confess I was a Beatles fan, so maybe I missed something. I don’t remember Keith Richards looking ANYTHING like a pirate.🤷‍♀️

  • @TheSanveana
    @TheSanveana Před 3 lety +4

    There is something not going very well over here: this song is from Adam solo, not The Ants. And the lyrics to read in the description is from Vive Le Rock, a song from his (back then) previous album with the same name, not this song/video.
    As an Antfan in the 80's and repeatedly surprised by his jumping behaviour in musical directions i was pretty certain Adam might had found his way with Manners and Physique, the album with this song on it.: he seemed to be at ease with himself.
    But as it turned out, he still had a long way to go, and i hope he's doing fine by now.
    My fave Ant-era still is the period till Kings of the Wild Frontier. Yet i also love his more commercial stuff, and from all the 'light' things he's done i think this is my favourite song of all.
