Robert Palmer

Robert Allen Palmer (19 January 1949 – 26 September 2003) was an English singer and songwriter. He was known for his powerful, soulful voice and sartorial elegance, and for his stylistic explorations, combining soul, funk, jazz, rock, pop, reggae, and blues. While his "four-decade career incorporated every genre of music", Palmer is best known "for the pounding rock-soul classic, 'Addicted to Love', and its accompanying video, which came to epitomise the glamour and excesses of the 1980s."Having started in the music industry in the 1960s, including a spell with Vinegar Joe, he found success in the 1980s, both in his solo career and with the Power Station, scoring Top 10 hits in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Sneakin’ sally through the alley
Sneakin’ sally through the alley
Sneakin’ sally through the alley
Trying to keep her out of sight
Sneakin’ sally through the alley
When up pops the wife

I said, ah I can’t find nothing wrong with being friends
'Cause sometimes she lets me use the car
She said, "If you can’t find nothing wrong with your mind
You’d better, you'd better find something wrong with her"

So I began to try to explain
Ah that it wasn’t just ah what she thought
I’d better find something to do with my time
The fact is I’ve just been caught

Sneakin’ sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean
Sneakin’ sally through the alley
When up pops the queen

Trying to form double talk, get myself in trouble talk
Catching myself in lies, catching myself in lies
Mama, mama, just looked at me as if I was, crazy, yeah
And didn’t even, didn’t even bat an eye

Sneakin’ sally through the alley
[Incomprehensible]
[Incomprehensible]

Sneakin’ sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean, yeah
Sneakin’ sally through the alley
When up pops the queen

Trying to talk doubletalk, get myself in trouble talk
Catching myself in lies, catching myself in lies, lies
Mama just looked at me as if I was crazy, yeah
She didn’t even, she didn’t even bat an eye
