Hallucinex Lyrics

I look forward to
that day when
the show will stop
will stop
stop reviewing itself
halt

when the most mundane
most pedestrian show
will cause and instill such boredom
boom

ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah-oh-way
ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah-oh-way

the time when all forms
or expressions of life
will be so
destitute of substance
bang

then life will become
so intolerable that perhaps
our senses will wake up
wake

ka-bang!

Cover art for Hallucinex lyrics by Stereolab

I am quite certain that Laetitia is not saying "ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah ooh-wah-oh-way" but "I-e-I-e-I-e-I'll wait." As in she's so much looking forward to the day when... All the things she's singing about in the song will happen!... that she's willing to wait for that day.

Love this song, such layered sounds, so much warmth in the chord progression in the chorus, it lifts my heart, as does the optimism that "Our sense will wake up!"

Ka-bang!!!

RIP Mary
