Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me Soundtrack Lyrics






Beautiful Stranger
by Madonna

Haven't we met?
You're some kind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me
I've had the taste for danger
If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Heaven forbid
I'll take my chance on a beautiful stranger

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumblin' down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singin' this song
To know you
Is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
To love you
Is to be part of you
I paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride

Da-da-da-da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da-da, da
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da-da, da
Beautiful stranger

If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Haven't you heard?
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger

I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change my point of view
If I could just forget about you
To know you
Is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumblin' down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song to you
To know you
Is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
I paid for you with tears
And swallowed my pride

Da-da-da-da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da-da, da
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-da, da, da, da, da
Da, da, da-da, da
Beautiful stranger

My Generation
by The Who

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to d-dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a b-big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we g-g-get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Yeah, I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Draggin the Line
by R.E.M.

Makin' a livin' the old hard way
Takin' and givin' by day by day
I dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine
Draggin' The Line

My dog Sam eats purple flowers
Ain't got much, but what we got's ours
We dig snow and rain and the bright sunshine
Draggin' The Line

Lovin' the free and feelin spirit of
hugging a tree

Diggin' snow and rain and the bright sunshine

American Woman
by Lenny Kravitz

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mamma let me be

Don't come hangin' round my door
I don't wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you

Now woman, stay away
American woman, listen when I say

American woman, get away from me
American woman, mamma let me be

Don't come knockin' on my door
I don't wanna see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman, get away
American woman, listen when I say

American woman, I said get away
American woman, listen when I say

Don't come hangin' round my door
Don't wanna see your face no more
I don't need your warm machines
I don't need your ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes

Now woman, get away
American woman, listen when I say

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mamma let me be

I gotta go,
I gotta get away
Babe, I gotta go
I wanna fly away

I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman
I'm gonna leave you woman

Bye, bye
Bye, bye
Bye, bye
Bye, bye

American woman
You're no good for me
And I'm no good for you
American woman
I'm looking at you right in the eye
Tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna leave you woman
You know I gotta go
I'm gonna leave you woman
I gotta go
American woman
I gotta go
I gotta go
American woman, yeah.

Just the 2 of Us
by Dr Evil

[Dr. Evil]
This is a very sensitive subject...

Just the two of us [repeat 2x]

yeahhhhhh ahum ahum

[verse 1]
From the moment I heard Frau
Said I had a clone
I knew that I'd be safe
Cuz I'd never be alone
An evil Dr. shoudln't speak aloud bout his feelings
My hurt and my pain don't make me too appealing

I'd hope Scott
Would look up to me,
Run the buisness of the family
Head an evil empire,
Just like his dear old dad
Give him my love and the things he never had

Scott would think
I was a cool guy
returned the love I have
make me wanna cry
Be evil, but had my feelings too
Chaged my life with Opra and Mya Angelou

But Scott rejected me
C'est La Ve
Life is cruel, treat you unfairly
Even so, a God there must be
Mini-me, you complete me.

Just the two of us [repeat 10x]

Uh-huh
Yeah
Just me and you
Gettin jiggy with it
Yeah, ahum
Quite pleasent really
YOU AND I
Daddy loves you
Daddy loves you
you and I

Time of the Season
by Big Blue Missile

[ Featuring Scott Weiland ]

It's the time of the season
When love runs high
In this time, give it to me easy
And let me try with pleasured hands

To take you in the sun to promised lands
To show you every one
It's the time of the season for loving...

What's your name?
Who's your daddy?
Is he rich like me?
Has he taken any time
To show you what you need to live?

Tell it to me slowly
Tell you what I really want to know
It's the time of the season for loving...

What's your name?

Buggin
by The Flaming Lips

All those bugs
Buzzin' round
Well they fly in the air
And you comb your hair
And the summer time will make you itch the
Mosquito bites

The buzz of love
Is busy buggin' you
Well they fly in the air
As you comb your hair
And they're splattered up and down your windshield
The headlights

Well, they bite
Yeah they bite
But you can't see them there

But they bite
Yeah, they bite
But you can't tell they're there

Does love buzz?
Because that's what it does
Well, they fly in the air
As you comb your hair
And the summertime will make you itch the
Mosquito bites

And they fly in the air
As you comb your hair
And they splattered up and down your windshield
The headlights

Fly in the air
Comb your hair
Fly in the air
Comb your hair

Alright
by The Lucy Nation

I don't wanna be the one
The one who's always left behind
Will there ever come a day
When I can turn around and say

[1] - It's all right now
It's all right now, yeah, yeah
It's all right now

I don't wanna be the one
The one who's always left undone
Losing more and more
I'm drained of everything
I'm falling down
I'll go see through in the sun saying

[Repeat 1]

Waiting, watching, restoration for those who stay
Waving to those that walk away

I don't wanna be the one, huh
If I could only see it
If I could only feel it
Will there ever come a day

Ill Never Fall In Love Again
by Burt Bacharach

[ Featuring Elvis Costello ]

What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.

What do you get when you kiss a girl?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia.
After you do, she'll never phone you.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.

Don't tell me what is all about,
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out,
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you give your heart
You get it all broken up and battered
Thats what you get a heart that's shattered
I'll never fall in love again
Oh I'll never fall in love again.

Optional 3rd verse
(What do you get when you fall in love?
You get enough tears to fill an ocean
That's what you get for your devotion.
I'll never fall in love again.
I'll never fall in love again.)

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow.
So, for at least until tomorrow,
I'll never fall in love again!
I'll never fall in love again!

(Part of Bacharach/David Medley)
Don't tell me what it's all about
`Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you. (here to mind you) 3x
What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So, for at least, until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
Oh, I'll never fall in love again

Im A Believer
by The Monkees

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried

I thought love was more or less a giving thing
Seems the more I gave the less I got
What's the use in tryin'
All you get is pain?
When I needed sunshine, I got rain

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried

Oh

Oh, love was out to get me
Now, that's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all of my dreams

Then I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried

Yes, I saw her face, now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
Said, I'm a believer, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (I'm a believer)
Said, I'm a believer, yeah (I'm a believer)

Magic Carpet Ride
by Steppenwolf

I like to dream, yes, yes
Right between the sound machine
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near
To the stars away from here

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes, girl
Look inside, girl
Let the sound take you away

Last night I hold Aladdin's lamp
And so I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well, someone came and took the lamp away
I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

Well, you don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free

Close your eyes, girl
Look inside, girl
Let the sound take you away

You don't know what we can find
Why don't you come with me, little girl
On a magic carpet ride

Well, you don't know what we can see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me
Fantasy will set you free

Dr. Evil
by They Might Be Giants

Evil
Evil is his one and only name
Evil
In his mind there is no other game

When your name is Evil that is good
Or so you think
But you're so very wrong
It's evil

But being wrong is right
So then you're good again
Which is the evilest thing of all

Do you find his subtle ways invite you
Does he excite you?
If his contradictions should attract you
Should he distract you

Heaven help you then
You're finished, it's the end
There'll be no retrieval
From the evil
The evil he will do

He's evil
He's Dr. Evil
His name is Evil

Haven't we met
You're some kind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me

If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Heaven forbid

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song
To know you is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
To love you is to be part of you
I pay for you with tears
And swallow all my pride

Dah-dah-dah-de dah-de-dah-de dah dah dah-dah-dum
Beautiful stranger
Dah-dah-dah-de dah-de-dah-de dah dah dah-dah-dum
Beautiful stranger

If I'm smart then I'll run away
But I'm not so I guess I'll stay
Haven't you heard
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger

I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change your point-of-view
If I could just forget about you
To know you is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows

I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why I'm singing this song to you
To know you is to love you

You're everywhere I go
And everybody knows
I pay for you with tears
And swallow all my pride

Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me is a 1999 American spy comedy film directed by Jay Roach. It is the second installment in the Austin Powers film series, after International Man of Mystery. It stars franchise co-producer and writer Mike Myers as Austin Powers, Dr. Evil, and Fat Bastard. The film also stars Heather Graham, Michael York, Robert Wagner, Seth Green, Mindy Sterling, Rob Lowe, and Elizabeth Hurley

The movie's soundtrack contains the 1999 hit "Beautiful Stranger" by Madonna. The song won a Grammy Award in 2000. Mike Myers appears as Austin Powers in the video, directed by Brett Ratner. Another single "Word Up!" by Mel B, was released on June 28, 1999. It peaked at number 13 on the UK Singles Chart.

Dr. Evil also sings a parody of Will Smith's popular 1997 cover of the Grover Washington Jr. classic "Just the Two of Us", referring in this case to his clone Mini-Me. The film's soundtrack had a rating of three stars at AllMusic.

Another single "American Woman" by Lenny Kravitz, was released as a single and was later included in the 1999 reissue of Kravitz's album 5. The cover reached the top 20 in Australia, Finland, Italy, New Zealand, and Spain, as well as number 26 in Canada and number 49 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Kravitz's version is slower and softer than the original, without the signature guitar solo; he later said to Randy Bachman that the reason why he skipped the lead guitar part was "I couldn't get the sound. I couldn't get the tone."

The music video (directed by Paul Hunter) featured actress Heather Graham (who starred in The Spy Who Shagged Me); the original political themes of the song were largely replaced by sex appeal. In 1999, Kravitz and his band were joined by The Guess Who for a live performance of "American Woman" at the MuchMusic Video Awards. It was also used as the theme song of the Madusa monster truck in monster jam events.
