Mr. Bellamy Lyrics
I'm not coming down
No matter what you
I like it up here without you
Go light, Mr. Bellamy
We'll have you down soon
No one to tell me what to do
No one to hold my hand
Bellamy's got a lot to do
And I hope that you'll understand
Nobody here to spoil the view
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand
Steady, Lads
and Easy Does It
Ooooh, don't frighten him!
Here we go...
I'm not coming down
No matter what say
I like it up here anyway
Sit tight, Mr. Bellamy
This shouldn't take long
In the delusionary state
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late
In the delusionary state
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late
Nobody here to spoil the view
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand
Steady, Lads
and Easy Does It
Don't frighten him!
Here we go...
Here we go...
I'm not coming down
No matter what you
I like it up here without you
(outro) Come down, come down to me (4X)
No matter what you
I like it up here without you
We'll have you down soon
No one to hold my hand
Bellamy's got a lot to do
And I hope that you'll understand
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand
and Easy Does It
Ooooh, don't frighten him!
Here we go...
No matter what say
I like it up here anyway
This shouldn't take long
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late
In the delusionary state
No wonder he's been feeling strange of late
Interfere with my plans
Bellamy's got a job to do
And he's hoping you'll understand
and Easy Does It
Don't frighten him!
Here we go...
Here we go...
No matter what you
I like it up here without you

Definitely my favourite from the new album
word! It's maybe his greatest opening of a song ever only challenged by old siam sir He still got it!!
I kinda get the feeling that Mr. Bellamy's on a drug trip or something...like he's "high" and he's not coming down.
When I first heard this song, I thought that Mr Bellamy was a cat!
Its about his divorce with Heather Mills. "Mr Bellamy" is an anagram of "Mills Betray Me". And some of the lyrics like " I'm not coming down No matter what you I like it up here without you"
mister Bellamy is an anagram of mills betray me
I think it might be about a person wanting to commit suicide, standing at the top of a building or something similar. anyway' it could also be about a drug habbit' could be BOTH!
I thought it was about some one who works for him like his gardener or something. I like the Mills anagram thing but I'm always skeptical of things like that.
Remember Lucy In The Sky with Diamonds?
I faintly remember reading an interview with Paul in which he says it's just a basic story about someone wanting to commit suicide, which makes perfect sense if you read the lyrics.
@ the person who said that he/she thinks it's about a cat: Brilliant! You just made my day. If you look at it from that perspective it's actually a really funny song! Cats always seem to be able to get stuck in a tree when they're young.
My general impression of this song over many listens is of a suicide jumper at the top of a building, with a group of policemen on the ground trying to talk him down.
But I just love the childish defiance of Mr Bellamy, summed up by that extraordinarily cheeky keyboard line - absolutely wonderful playing, the feeling of that melody line, it's almost a musical thumbing of the nose, genius Macca.
"In the delusionary state" with all those effects on it makes me think of hallucinogenics, so maybe it is someone who has taken too much acid and thinks they can fly or something, further backed up by him saying "Bellamy's got a job to do", as if he's on some acid-fuelled mission of little understanding to anyone but himself.
I doubt the anagram theory, simply because it bears no relation to the words in the song, really, that I can see. But it's a great song, great fun to listen to, and a great moment in the album.
