This song is about… uh, not that..
Released alongside their album… wait, never mind.
A song of incomplete thoughts, “Wait Actually Yeah No” can be considered both a song about trying to figure out how to phrase something or about the perils of songwriting.
[Verse 1]
On a south sea island
Wait, actually, yeah, no
In the doctor's waiting room downtown
No, never mind
On a highway exit ramp
In a big department store
Wait, um, yeah, no
[Chorus]
World War I, the western front
Place you went on business once
Yes, but not that
[Verse 2]
Twenty-car collision
Wait, actually, yeah, no
Someone you don't know staring at you
No, never mind
Pair of white magician gloves
Camels in a caravan
Wait, um, yeah, no
[Chorus]
Thing you haven't tried before
Misremembered anecdote
Yes, but not that
[Bridge]
Self-enclosing whale
Artificial pain
Marijuana еgg
Swimming tambourine
Frozen human rug
Secrеt wolverine
Odorless guitar chord
[Verse 3]
Wouldn't it be good if
Wait, actually, yeah, no
What about, okay, like a thing like
No, never mind
Wait a second, hear me out
Picture this, imagine if
Wait, um, yeah, no
[Chorus]
Open up your mind to this
Close your eyes, consider it
Yes, but not that
