Loving Someone

You should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be

My heart is telling me the telly isn't telling me anything I need

But it needs to keep selling me

Besides celebrities lacking in integrity

Holding up the status quo

Instead of showing your kids that they matter

Who are they gonna batter next?

Just keep holding their necks and keep selling them sex

It's better if we keep them perplexed

It's better if we make them want the opposite sex

And disenfranchised young criminal minds

In a car park beside where your nan resides

They're not slow, they've just never been shown

That you should be

Loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Oh, oh

We're all human, we're just like you, man

We're sentient, or something or other, I can't remember, whatever

We shouldn't have people afloat

If it were safer on the ground, we wouldn't be on a boat

Charlatan telepathy, exploiting insecurity

And praying on the purity of grief and it's simplicity

But, I know that maybe I'm too skeptical

Even Guy Debord needed spectacles

You see, I'm the Greek economy of cashing intellectual cheques

And I'm trying to progress, but instead of selling sex

And I think I should be

Loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be

I am forever in alongside the boys in jumpers on bikes

From schools and cars with autumn leaves

Fallen sparse across mid-afternoon

She blazed about how cultural language is an operating system

A simple interface rendered feeble and listless

When tested with divinity or a true understanding of the human condition

I never did understand the duality of art and reality of living life

And treating it as such, but with a certain disconnect to touch that

Cajoles at the artist with comfort and abandon

And between the spires and rolling roofs of the white city

That orange English light cast only one, singular shadow

For you are not beside but within me

You should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

(We're all human, we're just like you, man)

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

(We're all human, we're just like you, man)

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Yeah, you should be loving someone

Oh, oh, loving someone

Oh, oh
