Phil Collins - Sussudio Lyrics
Official




There's a girl that's been on my mind
All the time, Sus-Sussudio, oh-oh
Now she don't even know my name
But I think she likes me just the same, Sus-Sussudio, whoa-oh

Ah, if she called me, I'd be there
I'd come running anywhere
She's all I need, all my life
I feel so good if I just say the word, Sus-Sussudio
Just say the word, oh, Sus-Sussudio

Now I know that I'm too young
My love has just begun, Sus-Sussudio, oh-oh
Ooh, give me a chance, give me a sign
I'll show her anytime, Sus-Sus-Sussudio, oh-oh

Ah, I've got to have her, have her now
I've got to get closer, but I don't know how
She makes me nervous and makes me scared
But I feel so good if I just say the word, Sus-Sussudio
Just say the word, oh, S-Sus-Sussudio, oh

Ah, she's all I need, all of my life
I feel so good if I just say the word, Sus-Sussudio
I'll just say the word, oh, S-Sus-Sussudio
I'll just say the word, oh, Sus-Sussudio
I'll say the word, oh, S-Su-Sussudio, oh-oh, oh, oh

Just say the word
Ooh, just, just, just say the word, ooh
Just say the word
S-Sus-Sussudio, Sus-Sussudio
Ah, Sus-Su-Sussudio, Sus-Sussudio
Sussudio, Sus-Sussudio

Just say the word, Sus-Sussudio
Say the word, oh
Just say the word
Ooh, just, just, just say the word

Phil Collins - Sussudio Video
(Show video at the top of the page)


"Sussudio" is a song by English singer-songwriter Phil Collins, released as a single in January 1985. The song is the first track on Collins' third solo studio album, No Jacket Required, released in February of the same year. The song was released as a single in the US on 30 April, as follow-up to "One More Night" and entered frequent rotation on MTV in May. By 6 July both single and album reached No. 1 on their respective US Billboard charts.

The song peaked at No. 12 in the UK Singles Chart. The song's title is a pseudoword Collins randomly came up with during a practice session.

Collins has said that he "improvised" the lyrics. Collins was playing around with a drum machine, and the lyric "su-sussudio" was what came out of his mouth. "So I kinda knew I had to find something else for that word, then I went back and tried to find another word that scanned as well as 'sussudio,' and I couldn't find one, so I went back to 'sussudio'", Collins said.

According to Collins, the lyrics are about a schoolboy's crush on a girl at school.
