"Sheer Heart Attack" lyrics
"Sheer Heart Attack"
Well you're just 17 and all you wanna do is disappear
You know what I mean there's a lot of space between our ears
The way that you touch don't feel nothin'
Hey hey hey hey, it was the DNA
Hey hey hey hey, that made me this way
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
I feel so in-articulate
Gotta feelin', gotta feelin', gotta feelin', like I'm paralysed
It ain't no, it ain't no, it ain't no, it ain't no surprise
Turn on the TV let it drip right down in your eyes
Hey hey hey hey, it was the DNA
Hey hey hey hey, that made me this way
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
I feel so in-articulate
Just how I feel
Do you know, do you know, do you know just how I feel?
Do you know, do you know, do you know just how I feel?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do you know just how I feel?
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac

Roger Taylor plays almost every instrument on this track, with some help from Brian May on guitar.
This is one of the few Queen recordings that does not feature bass guitarist John Deacon, but the song was the B-side of the Deacon-penned single
"Spread Your Wings" in February 1978. It was also the B-side of the single
"It's Late", written by Brian May in April 1978.
A vocal and tempo of this track remind of punk rock which was popular in 1977. The
Sex Pistols were recording their first album next door to Queen when they recorded this song.
Roger Taylor said in 1999, "We came up with the title for the 'Sheer Heart Attack' album and it was a song that I had an idea for, but I hadn't actually finished the song yet. By the time I had finished the song we were two albums later, so it just struggled out on the 'News Of The World' album."
