Overkill Lyrics
Artist(Band):Men at Work
Review The Song (8)Print the Lyrics
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know WE'LL be alright<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Perhaps its just imagination

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation

At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
COME BACK ANOTHER DAY

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications

Especially at night
I worry over situations
THAT I know will be alright
It's just overkill

Day after day it reappears
Night after night, my heartbeat, shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Review about Overkill

Overkill | Reviewer: Kate | 9/27/09

First heard this song back in 1981 or so when I owned the album Cargo. Lots of Colin Hay's work is about paranoia and difficulties with mental health. WHO CAN IT BE NOW and LAND DOWN UNDER are also from the perspective of someone with mental health issues. LAND DOWN UNDER has lots of drug references. It always surprised me when LAND DOWN UNDER became so mainstream and sort of became the unofficial theme for the 1988 Australian challenge to the Americas Cup. (Which we won.:)



Amazing. | Reviewer: Gretchen | 1/3/08

I origanialy heard the Acustic Version of this song on an episode of Scrubs also. I fell in love with it imediatly. Scrubs is an addiction of mine and the song just made the episode that much better. So yes, I tip my hat to you Colin- Good job.



My interpretation | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/1/07

It's all about life, and the stress that comes with it everyday. It creeps up on you, until you can't take it anymore, then you just let go. And then it starts coming back. Over and over again. It never ends.



wow!!!!! | Reviewer: adriana | 9/4/07

Saw Scrubs a long time ago | Reviewer: linda | 6/12/07

I saw that episode of Scrubs a long time ago but I forgot about it. Saw it again last night and couldn't stop thinking about the song. Another case of a song not meaning much to you when it first comes out and then all of a sudden you get it.



Overkill | Reviewer: Ken | 6/3/07

Heard this in the 201 episode of Scrubs the first time as well.
Instantly had to find out which song and artist.

It's so powerful and catchy.
One of my favorite songs, with no doubt.



Overkill | Reviewer: Vicki | 4/23/07

I saw the episode of Scrubs too! - Had to find the music. Men at Work - the CD "Contraband" looks pretty good - some of their best work - the lyrics of this song are on the mark!



Overkill.. not at all.. well done | Reviewer: Jazz Perry | 9/23/04

I first heard this son on an episode of Scrubs, and had to find out where it originally came from.

Now, whilst I prefer the acoustic version, the original is absolutely superb with great vocals and catchy beat.

Awesome.
