Squeezewas a British rock music band that came to prominence in the new waveperiod of the late 1970s. The group formed in London in 1974. The two main writing partners in the band, Chris Diffordand Glenn Tilbrook, are widely considered to be among the finest melodic pop songwriters of their generation and have often been compared with the legendary Lennon-McCartney partnership, although unlike The Beatles, Difford and Tilbrook's direct collaboration on songs continued through most of the group's career. The original lineup of the band also included pianist Jools Holland, who went on to become a popular solo artist and bandleader, and is now best known as the host of the critically-acclaimed and highly successful British music TV show Later with Jools Holland. Squeeze's lineup in the 1980s also featured the lead vocals of Paul Carrack, who was also one of the lead singers of Mike & The Mechanicsas well as a solo artist.

Daphne Lyrics
Squeeze
(difford/tilbrook)
Daphne
Dont be ridiculous
This silence is killing us
Talk to me
Speaking with a loving tongue
Give life a sense of fun
Daphne
Dont be so cavalier
All that you want is here
Talk to me
Speak with your pretty eyes
Not without compromise
If youre used to a life of farces
Playing games of judge and jury
You know when youre wearing those glasses
You look like nana mouskouri
Daphne
Laugh and take silly time
Leave sadness way behind
Talk to me
Tell jokes and belly laugh
Dont cut your life in half
Daphne
Shelley wrote verse for you
He would have wanted to
Talk to me
Saying I must be thick
Love is a lunatic
If youre used to a life of farces
Playing games of judge and jury
You know when youre wearing those glasses
You look like nana mouskouri
So you can be adjourned
Daphne Im so concerned
Daphne
Dont be ridiculous
This silence is killing us
Talk to me
