The 1975 - Loving Someone lyrics

Yeah, 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 the 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
Disenfranchised young criminal minds in
A car park beside
Where your nan resides are 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 was 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 – 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
