She Blinded Me with Science Lyrics

It's poetry in motion She turned her tender eyes to me As deep as any ocean As sweet as any harmony But she blinded me with science She blinded me with science And failed me in biology When I'm dancing close to her (blinded me with science, science...Science!) I can smell the chemicals (blinded me with science, science...Science!) Science! But it's poetry in motion When she turned her eyes to me As deep as any ocean As sweet as any harmony She blinded me with science She blinded me with science Failed me in geometry When she's dancing next to me (blinded me with science, science...Science!) I can feel her shivering (blinded me with science, science...Science!) It's poetry in motion Now she's making love to me The spheres are in commotion The elements in harmony She blinded me with science She blinded me with science! And hit me with technology Good heavens Miss Sakamoto, you're beautiful! I don't believe it! There she goes again! She's tidied up, and I can't find anything! All my tubes and wires, and careful notes And antiquated notions... But it's poetry in motion When she turned her eyes to me As deep as any ocean As sweet as any harmony She blinded me with science She blinded me with science She blinded me with....

Meaning of She Blinded Me with Science

“She Blinded Me with Science” is a playfully absurd and slightly bewildered love song delivered by Thomas Dolby, capturing the feeling of being utterly captivated – almost overwhelmed – by someone’s beauty and intellect. The lyrics depict a man completely lost to a woman's charm, described through poetic imagery like “poetry in motion” and comparisons to oceans and harmonies, yet simultaneously confused and frustrated by her advanced knowledge (“blinded me with science,” “failed me in biology”). Dolby uses this juxtaposition of romantic longing and scientific jargon to create a humorous portrait of being swept away, highlighting the disorienting experience of falling for someone who seems impossibly brilliant. The repeated refrain emphasizes this bewilderment, culminating in a chaotic scene of technological marvels and a desperate search for misplaced belongings – a wonderfully silly expression of adoration.
