I've come to tell you 'bout the story I see
It made of honey but it sting like a bee
Got the message that it come from the floor
And that's the way to get yourself in trouble

You think it's easy 'cause you don't know the feeling
Make it up, make it up like you do no wrong
Give me fever like a man blind from passion
If you got the time I'll show you how to turn it on

Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need

She got her ways to get me down on the floor
And take me places that I never seen before
Someone told me I got to take it easy
But I'm a junkie
A junkie when the heat is on

Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need

You think it's easy 'cause you don't know the feeling
Make it up, make it up like you do no wrong
Give me fever like a man blind from passion
If you got the time I'll show you how to turn it on

Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need

Please, you got that need
Please, you got that need

INXS was originally formed in 1977 in Sydney, Australia as the Farriss Brothers. The lineup included the three Farris brothers: Andrew

(songwriter/keyboards); Tim (guitar); and Jon (drums), along with Michael Hutchence (lead vocals/songwriter); Kirk Pengilly (guitar/saxophone) and Garry Gary Beers (bass). They began gaining popularity playing in pubs before moving on to support other local Australian bands, including Midnight Oil.

In 1979, they changed their name to INXS and released their first single “Simple Simon” in 1980. They went on to release their debut self-titled album INXS in 1980, closely followed by their second album, Underneath the Colours, in 1981. Neither album gained much attention outside of Australia, however, in July of 1982 INXS released their single “The One Thing” ahead of their next studio album. The song began to climb the U.S. and international charts, thanks in part to music video’s heavy rotation on MTV.
