"Houdini" is an upcoming song by English and Albanian singer Dua Lipa. It is set to be released on 9 November 2023. Earlier in 2023, Lipa confirmed that her upcoming third studio album would be released sometime in 2024 with a new sound that sees her moving away from disco, embracing more of 1970s-era psychedelia. After having deleted all of her Instagram posts on 12 October 2023, Dua Lipa posted a picture of herself in red hair captioned "miss me?". Two weeks later, on 27 October, she shared a close-up picture of a key between her teeth, accompanied by the phrase "catch me or I go". Lipa posted a teaser of the song on her social media on 31 October 2023, hinting at the song title in the post. A rearranged combination of numbers would spell out the title "Houdini", named after the illusionist who passed away on 31 October 1926. Fans of Lipa also figured out parallels to a song of the same title (1982) by British singer Kate Bush, whose album cover also references Houdini by presenting a key in her mouth.
Lyrics:
[Intro] Okay (Mmm) [Chorus] I come and I go Tell me all the ways you need me I'm not here for long Catch me or I go Houdini I come and I go Prove you got the right to please me Everybody knows Catch me or I go Houdini [Verse 1] Time is passin' like a solar eclipse See you watchin' and you blow me a kiss It's your moment, baby, don't let it slip Come in closer, are you readin' my lips? [Chorus] They say I come and I go Tell me all the ways you need me I'm not here for long Catch me or I go Houdini I come and I go Prove you got the right to please me Everybody knows Catch me or I go Houdini [Post-Chorus] If you're good enough, you'll find the way Maybe you could cause a girl to change her ways Do you think about it night and day? Maybe you could be the one to make me stay [Verse 2] Everything you say is soundin' so sweet (Ah-ah) But do you practise everythin' that you preach? (Ah-ah) I need something that'll make me believe (Ah-ah) If you got it, baby, give it to me [Chorus] They say I come and I go Tell me all the ways you need me I'm not here for long Catch me or I go Houdini I come and I go (I come and I go) Prove you got the right to please me Everybody knows (I'm not here for long) Catch me or I go Houdini [Post-Chorus] If you're good enough, you'll find the way Maybe you could cause a girl to change her ways Do you think about it night and day? Maybe you could be the one to make me stay [Bridge] Oh-oh Ooh [Chorus] I come and I go Tell me all the ways you need me (Ooh) I'm not here for long Catch me or I go Houdini I come and I go (I come and I go) Prove you got the right to please me Everybody knows (I'm not here for long) Catch me or I go Houdini [Outro] Houdini Catch me or I go Houdini
