King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - O.N.E Lyrics

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard Lyrics

"O.N.E"

One night everywhere, one night everywhere
One night everywhere, one night everywhere

Dawn has reared its welcome head
I lay in bed bravely
Waiting for the day to begin

Hours pass reading the news of the day
That begins in such a state
I bravely await fate

Am I going insane?
Am I able to wake from the nightmare?
Can I keep it contained?
One night everywhere turned to nowhere

Human race deserves its steaming fate on a plate
We did exploit the fish of the sea
And the birds of the heavens
And even the bugs in the ground
And every creeping thing that creeps on Earth

Am I going insane?
Am I able to wake from the nightmare?
Can I keep it contained?
One night everywhere turned to nowhere

The lines "We did exploit the fish of the sea and the birds of the heavens" refer to King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard's album "Fishing For Fishies" and its songs "Fishing For Fishies" and "The Bird Song".

The colorful music video for this song was directed by Alex McClaren. He explained, "The song itself feels as if it's constantly moving along so I tried to keep the visuals continually moving forward and sliding into different visual styles and landscapes. I felt the mix of stop motion and collage through the use of found imagery and the band would help compliment the tracks lyrics and themes as I interpreted them, of dreams, nightmares, climate change, dystopias, and utopias, as well as referencing events that took place during the making of the video over 2020."

album: "L.W." (2021)
