We Have a Technical Lyrics by Matt Sharp

Random

1997

[Matt Sharp, Damon Albarn, both]

[Verse 1]
We have a random on the west side
Personality malfunction
He says I can't give you anything at all
Just a room with a bad view of you
He sent a letter to a downstat
Saying sorry that I missed you
But I can't think of anything to do
He's addicted to the time track

[Chorus]
Oo-oo-oo, we have a technical
Oo-oo-oo, we have a technical

[Verse 2]
He's in the hotel where they all go
Saying me, I've lost my memory
It's so surprising just how quickly things can end
Like a hero on a platform of friends
This table is so crowded
With people that I don't know
And I never really turn my thoughts on you
So the image breaks down again

[Chorus]
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical

[Spoken intermission]
So, I found out your reason for the phone calls and smiles
And it hurts, and I'm lonely
And I should never have tried
And I missed you tonight
So it's time to leave
You see, it meant everything to me

[Verse 3]
I suppose it's very shady
At least until the lights go out
Advertising posters on the wall
And the young ones singing softly
Do they ever come back? (Do they ever come back?)
Or is it always at the wrong time? (Is it always at the wrong time?)
I could crawl around the floor just like I'm real
And move a hand in front of my eyes

[Chorus]
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical
Oo-oo-ooh, we have a technical

We have a technical
We have a technical
