I would love to know what this song is...

I first heard it about 15 years ago and it was quite reggae ish. I remember the lyrics well but don't know who sung the song or what it was called.

She came right up to me, out of the blue
Smiled at me and then said, how do you do
I said are you on your own she said what do you think
So I went to the bar, and bought her a drink

Can't quite remember the next line, but then it goes
I drew down the blinds and I unplugged the telephone
The next morning I watched her as she got dressed
Cos I knew that the night had been a big success

A harmless piece of fun
I didn't mean to hurt no-one
Oh my god what have I done
She's a fatal attraction

Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.

Gregory Isaacs is a reggae artist and has a song called "Fatal Attraction" on his 1989 "I.O.U." album. However, I cannot find the lyrics. Try the attached link to listen to a 30-second sample of the song.

It is Taxman as you say , Fatal attraction 1989 , i heard it on BBC Radio West Midlands in early 1990 on "the saturday night Reggae session" , also available on :
Reggae Hits, Vol. 6 on CD 2000. I only came across this forum by accident looking for the lyrics myself on a google search , although to be fair the guy does sing it quite clear , don't know his real name , ive done another google search but to no avail. still sounds fresh today after 19 years !! got it on MP3.
