Lyrics

Gotta a photo of a painting of a sunset in my mind
Stare into the picture of the sun until you’re blind. 

Like a knave before the alter 
Or a cat before a king
You’re sitting there in judgement of the song before you hear me sing
Oh yeah

I gotta a model of a rocket and a picture of the sun 
I’m sitting here on earth 
Looking up at everyone 

Gotta sketch here in my pocket
Great cathedral in the sky 
You think that I can’t build it 
Wait right there and watch me try

——————————

You
Can’t believe your eyes
The camera sometimes lies
Oh yeah
You
Just can’t trust your ears
It’s not as it appears 
Oh no

You
Can’t believe your eyes
The camera sometimes lies
Oh yeah
You
Just can’t trust your ears
It’s not as it appears 
Oh no

So don’t 
Believe anything
Question everything
Oh yeah

You
Just can’t trust your ears
It’s not as it appears 
Oh no

————————————-

Who'd break a Butterfly on a wheel?
Til it no longer feels
One day you realise
Your whole life’s been a lie

Were all those lucid thoughts and dreams 
Just generated memes?
Un-awake and self aware   
My cathedral in the air 

I stand exposed before the dawn
I can't dance I won’t perform 

The voice was only in my head 
Should I fuck myself instead?

Cathedral

Philip Oakey hated this song so much it was only released as a single with a poster "so fans won't feel too ripped-off with such a substandard song". In 2008 it was certified as having been played on Amercan radio 20 million times. That's TWENTY MILLION times.


Human League - Don't You Want Me (30th Anniversay Single Edit by Abstraction)

The Kingsmen - Louie Louie (1963)

This fun edit takes the instrumental version of "Don't You Want Me" from The Human League's remix album "Love and Dancing" and pairs it with the vocals from the original. I took some artistic liberties as well to make the track DJ friendly. Enjoy!
