FRANZ FERDINAND

- Ulysses Lyrics

Well I sit and hear sentimental footsteps
Then a voice say, "Hi, so?
So what you got, what you got this time?
Come on, let's get high"

Come on, Lexo, what you got next-o?
Walk twenty-five miles-o
Well I'm bored, I'm bored
Come on, let's get high

Come on, let's get high
Come on, let's get high, high

Well I found a new way
I found a new way
Come on, don't amuse me
I don't need your sympathy

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
I've found a new way, baby

Am I Ulysses? Am I Ulysses?
No, but you are now boy
So sinister, so sinister
But last night was wild

What's the matter there? Feeling kinda anxious?
That hot blood grew cold
Yeah, everyone, everybody knows it
Yeah, everyone, everybody knows it
Everybody knows it

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
I've found a new way, baby

La, la-la-la-la
Ulysses
I've found a new way
Well, I've found a new way, baby

Oh, oh then suddenly you know
You're never going home
You're never, you're never, you're never
You're never, you're never, you're never
You're never going home

You're not Ulysses
Baby, no, la-la-la-la, hoo hoo hoo
You're not Ulysses, hoo hoo hoo
La-la-la-la, hoo hoo hoo

What is the meaning behind Ulysses lyrics?


When we look beyond the surface of the words, Franz Ferdinand's 'Ulysses' is a song that metaphorically deals with the issues of man's alienation and the quest for novelties. The citation of Ulysses, who in Greek myth was the ultimate outdoorsman, is a metaphor for the longing for living in the fast lane and for thrills even if it leads to being rootless. All the aspects of lifestyle implied in the Ulysses lyrics, such as adventure, empowerment, freedom, joy, and inspiration, get the most attention. At the same time, the song reveals the great paradox of human nature: we, men, need to discover ourselves, but we also want to escape our fears, discomfort, and uncertainties. There are some allusions to drug usage and anxiety but they are very subtle and, therefore, might not be appropriate for very young kids. Nonetheless, the matters discussed in the song are not too going overboard and too much soft so as to require a PG rating meaning that parents' guidance is needed.
