The 2nd song off of Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino is sung in a very melancholic tone.
The track describes how the dreams and ambitions people have as children are often interrupted abruptly as life continues, much like a conversation.
One Point Perspective Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dancing in my underpants
I'm gonna run for government
I'm gonna form a covers band anorl (Stop)
Back there by the baby grand
Did Mr. Winter Wonderland
Say, "Come 'ere, kid, we really need to talk"?
Bear with me, man, I lost my train of thought
[Verse 2]
I fantasise, I call it quits
I swim with the economists
And I get to the bottom of it for good
By the time reality hits
The chimes of freedom fell to bits
The shining city on the fritz
They come out of the cracks, thirsty for blood (Stop)
[Bridge]
Oh, just as the apocalypse finally gets prioritised
And you cry some of the hottest tears you ever cried
Multiplied by five
I suppose a singer must die
[Verse 3]
"Singsong 'Round the Money Tree"
This stunning documentary
That no one else unfortunately saw
Such beautiful photography
It's worth it for the opening scene
I've been driving 'round listening to the score
Or maybe I just imagined it all
I've played to quiet rooms like this before
Bear with me, man, I lost my train of thought

Where does the title of the track come from?
The title derives from cinema. One-point perspective is a way of crafting cinematic shots with near-perfect symmetry. The composition of these shots draws the viewer’s eye to a specific focal point within the frame, absorbing them into the dimension of the shot and manipulating the experience by tel...
