Little SuzieStyx

Released: June 11, 1996

Songwriter: Dennis DeYoung Tommy Shaw Bob Burger Glen Burtnik

Producer: Dennis DeYoung

Somebody lookin' for the answer
Somebody dyin' to cut a deal
Somebody got a cure to cancer
Somebody drunk behind the wheel
But me, I'm just tryin' to find my little Suzie
Somebody bustin' illegal aliens
Somebody burnin' Hollywood
Somebody tryin' to shoot the President
Someone abused and misunderstood
But, me, I'm just holdin' up a sign for little Suzie
Somebody reachin' out for Jesus
Somebody lookin' for a sign
Somebody said, "They spotted Elvis"
He was healin' the sick and leadin' the blind
But me, I'm just tryin' to make some time for my little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm sneakin' up behind, don't you hear me say
"I won't surrender, I will survive, so help me Jesus
We'll be together until' the end of all space and time"
Everybody's got an infomercial
Everybody's psychic on the phone
Somebody got a sex change reversal
Somebody thinks nobody knows
Somebody cryin' out for justice
Somebody shootin' someone's kid
Somebody caught the perpetrator
Somebody swears they never did
But me, I'm just makin' time for my little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm playin' my guitar for my little Suzie
The world is gonna turn from here until' doomsday
But I don't give a damn long as I've got little Suzie
I won't surrender, I will survive, so help me Jesus
We'll be together until' the end of all space and time
Somebody's awaitin' execution
Somebody's dyin' to pull the switch
Somebody cries another martyr
Somebody screams, "Fry the son of a bitch"
But me, I'm just spendin' time with little Suzie
Yeah me, I'm playin' my guitar for little Suzie
Oh me, I'm safe in the arms of little Suzie
Yeah oh
Oh it's gonna change
Bad girl, bad girl
Little Suzie
A little Suzie

Styx

Styx is a rock band from Chicago formed in 1970. They enjoyed great success with pop rock and hard rock songs, and became famous for their power ballads and album releases of the mid 1970s and early 80s.

The band has gone through some famously nasty internal struggles, drug problems, illnesses and deaths, but continues to perform today (with a significantly altered line-up). Tommy Shaw, from Montgomery, AL, left but returned to the band. Drummer John Panozzo developed a debilitating drinking problem and ultimately died. Dennis DeYoung developed an acute case of photosensitivity, and he left the band. They fought among themselves for control of the band name. Glen Burtnik also left and returned, this time on bass, to replace Chuck Panozzo (John’s brother), who had also left the band. (whew.)
