[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
My little girl, won't you come with me?
Come with me
And tell me

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
I'm going crazy with boredom
Come with me
And tell me

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 3: Dave Gahan]
Grey sky over a black town
I can feel depression all around
You've got your leather boots on

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 4: Dave Gahan]
I can't stand another drink
It's surprising this town doesn't sink
You've got your leather boots on

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 5: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Your pretty dress is oil stained
From working too hard for too little
You've got your leather boots on

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 6: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
You're feeling the boredom too
I'd gladly go with you
I'd put your leather boots on

[Chorus: Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Verse 7: Dave Gahan]
I'd put your pretty dress on

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Dave Gahan & Martin L. Gore]
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?
Is there something to do?

Depeche Mode are recognized as one of the most artistically influential bands of the late 20th century. Commercially, they have released 14 studio albums to date, and sold more than 100 million records. Their most recent album, Spirit, hit the streets in March 2017.

The band got their start in Basildon, Essex in 1980, and named themselves after a French fashion magazine. They rose to fame with hits that have become “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), “Everything Counts” (1983), and “People Are People” (1984), to name a few. One of their most famous concerts was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl in 1988.

Martin Gore has been the band’s primary songwriter since Vince Clarke left in the early 1980s (and went on to form Yazoo and Erasure). Alan Wilder replaced Clarke on keyboards in 1982, but left in 1995 (reinvesting his creative energy in his band, Recoil, which he had started in 1986). Since then, the band has comprised frontman Dave Gahan, multi-instrumentalist Martin Gore, and keyboardist Andy Fletcher—all of whom are original members.
