Cruella hit Andi like a hammer when he was running for a bus to go to town in mid-1985. He'd recently seen the John Waters movie ‘Pink Flamingos’. The one where Divine ‘ate dog shit’ at the end. He saw him/her as a live version of Cruella DeVil. It was designed as a Hi Energy dance floor filler and a nod to Divine him/herself. But Jason’s 21st century mixing makes it sound more like glam rock. Which we weren’t expecting. But it STILL works.

Lyrics

Well give me one, give me two, give me three, I just don’t care
A night out any man with my body I want to share
Well you come to me as if I were your own
But all I’m bothered about is when we get home
We’re gonna go upstairs and remove our clothes
And from then on, what I say goes.

I am Cruella De Ville and I want you to be my man
I see that you fit my bill I’m gonna catch you if I can
Now don’t you think that I’m scared
No boy that ain’t part of the plan
I am Cruella De Ville
I tell you now I don’t give a damn.

Well late at night in the dark with a stranger is what I like
Well it’s good sometimes when I’m on top they get up tight
Well now it’s you I see nearly every night
And the things you say they give me a fright
Well if that’s what you want then you can get out now
‘Cos nobody’s gonna tie me down.

I am Cruella De Ville and I want you to be my man
I see that you fit my bill I’m gonna catch you if I can
Now don’t you think that I’m scared
No boy that ain’t part of the plan
I am Cruella De Ville
I tell you now I don’t give a damn.
Well I’d like to yes but I’m with someone else
You look upset it’s just confusion on your part
Go now you bother me boy
Your life’s in a mess
No don’t tell me what’s in your heart

Well now you go before my reputation gets shot
Out of my way there’s someone waiting outside
But if a word gets out about the things we did
I said if word gets out about the things we did
I tell you now I’m gonna have your hide.

I am Cruella De Ville and I want you to be my man
I see that you fit my bill I’m gonna catch you if I can
Now don’t you think that I’m scared
No boy that ain’t part of the plan
I am Cruella De Ville
I tell you now I don’t give a damn.
