you might have to slow down for her to get you.

Did Debbie Harry make a public statement?
What's to discuss?
Great song, though.

The song is about an obsessive stalker, written from the perspective of the stalker. It was inspired by a real-life event.
"According to Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry, it was inspired by real events. She told Entertainment Weekly: "I was actually stalked by a nutjob, so it came out of a not-so-friendly personal event. I tried to inject a little levity into it to make it more lighthearted. It was a survival mechanism."
