Teletype Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So what do you want?
So many big ol' lies to choose from now
Are you listening?
Are you breathing, are you coming up with some?
And what if I sell my soul?
And what if I don't?
Ooh, it's easy to lie when nothing makes sense anymore

[Chorus]
Don't talk a lot
You don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
You don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on

[Verse 2]
Gonna take a bit
Maybe this will take a little time to heal
'Cause I'm hurting
And I don't want to go back down inside of me
And where is my sense of joy?
It's creeping back in
Yeah, I'm a liar but I'm lying next to you and you don't care

[Chorus]
Don't talk a lot
You don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
Don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
Don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
Don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on

[Bridge]
But it's alright
I feel alright, yeah, I feel good
I feel okay
If this is the big time
If this is the big time
Then I feel good
Ooh, you might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want

[Chorus]
Don't talk a lot
You don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
You don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause I can't tell you everything that went on
Can't tell you everything that went on
Don't talk a lot
Don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause ooh, you might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want
Don't talk a lot
Don't talk a lot but I like it
'Cause ooh, you might be everything that I want
You might be everything that I want

[Outro]

Were there any interesting things hidden in the music video?

It’s EE, so you know there had to be something! Fans on Reddit quickly noticed that two error messages appear during the song:

[J]
that the victim had been decapitated when a head was discovered in a dustbin adjacent to the property.

and

[R]
That’s a real spanner into my works.

What have the artists said about the song?

Jonathan Higgs:

It sets the tone in a really good way. But it’s not a big ‘here we are!’ kind of song, which is what we often open with. It’s more like, ‘You didn’t expect this from us.’

Alex Robertshaw:

In terms of instrumentation, it’s very fifty-fifty from electronic and the band. And that car...
