Phoenix – Lisztomania Lyrics

Electronic

So sentimental, not sentimental no
Romantic not disgusting yet
Darling, I'm down and lonely when with the fortunate only
I've been looking for something else
Do let, do let, do let, jugulate, do let, do let, do

Let's go slowly discouraged
Distant from other interests on your favorite weekend ending
This love's for gentlemen only that's with the fortunate only
No, I gotta be someone else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes and goes

Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow like a riot, like a riot, oh
I'm not easily offended
It's not hard to let it go from a mess to the masses

Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow like a riot, like a riot, oh
I'm not easily offended
It's not hard to let it go from a mess to the masses

Follow, misguide, stand still
Disgust, discourage on this precious weekend ending
This love's for gentlemen only, wealthiest gentlemen only
And now that you're lonely
Do let, do let, do let, jugulate, do let, do let, do

Let's go slowly discouraged, we'll burn the pictures instead
When it's all over we can barely discuss
For one minute only, not with the fortunate only
Thought it could have been something else
These days it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes, it comes and goes

Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow like a riot, like a riot, oh
I'm not easily offended
It's not hard to let it go from a mess to the masses

Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow like a riot, like a riot, oh
I'm not easily offended
It's not hard to let it go from a mess to the masses

This is show time, this is show time, this is show time
This is show time, this is show time, this is show time
Time, time is your love, time is your love, yes time is your
Time, time is your love, time is your love, yes time is your

From the mess to the masses

Lisztomania
Think less but see it grow like a ride, like a ride, oh
Discuss, discuss, discuss
Discuss, discuss, discouraged

    i think the songs about a guy that wants a girl, but shes like more wealthy than him, so they cant talk to eachother, but he goes into a banquet acting like someone rich to get her, then they do shit together, and she finds out, but doesnt care, and he wants to get rid of the evidence, and he was sad because he thought they could be together. idk?

    This song refers to the performance of Franz Liszt and he was a beloved musician and if you were a follower and loved his music you had "Lisztomania" many of there ablums were about olden time things haha

    I first heard this track on a PS3 ad, it was a slight edited version of the original, a bit of searching and found it was pheonix. Great track ! Great album !

    Anyone who doesn't get this song is stupid. Maybe open a history book or something. It has to do with Franz Liszt and how his fame overcame him and it was too much to deal with. Even though he was surrounded by people, he felt so alone. Lisztomania was a term used to describe how people reacted to his performances. Also known as Liszt Fever.

    I love this song. I have to say though, that as a devotee of both classical music and opera, I disagree that anyone who doesn't understand this song is "stupid." I do, however, think that the person who posted that comment is a "poser." Open a history book? Snob.

    I always thought it was "like a rhi, like a rhino", as in having thick skin, and not being easily offended. makes more sense to me than "like a riot".
