Lyrics for Great DJ as interpreted by VOGUE-MODEL

Great DJ Lyrics
Fed up with your indigestion
Swallow words one by one
Folks got high at a quarter to five
Don't you feel you're growing up undone?
Nothing but the local DJ
Said he had some songs to play
What went down from his fooling around
Gave hope and a brand new day

Imagine all the girls - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the boys - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the strings - ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
And the drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
Oh

Nothing was the same again
All about where and when
Blowing our minds in a life unkind
You got to love the BPM
When his work was all but done
Remembering how this begun
We wore his love like a hand in a glove
This preacher plays it all night long

Nothing but the girls - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And your boys - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the strings - ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
And the drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums
The drums

Imagine all the girls - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the boys - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the strings - ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
And the drums - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-oh

And all the girls - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the boys - ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
And the strings - ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee
And the drums
The drums
The drums
The drums

this song is about growing up in manchester. (i'm from manchester, so is the band) the dj played this at the star & garter on friday night and we all danced madly. living a depressing life where u cant really do much and u are forced to grow up fast due to bad parenting. then u start listening to cool music and going to cool clubs and u have new direction in ur life and its all good again!
haha i make manchester sound so bad. its not... its great... really!

I just love the level of innovation in this song. The economy of language - not a word is neither wasted nor superfluous - is incredible. I mean, (And the drums (x20)) Genius! What an amazing mind that recognises that while it is irritating and foolish to repeat the same three words over and over, in the same tone nineteen times, it is both exciting and fresh to repeat is twenty!

I am in awe.

The video clip is even better than the song itself. The way they dance is so cool (like they dont want to dance, but they do anyway. Its so original)

So it's literally just about a dj playing in Manchester? :/

Lol "So it's literally just about a dj playing in Manchester? :/ "

Obviously you can see it as just that, but purvahuftroof explained it better.

The lyrics obviously aren't that meaningful.. but they're not trying to make it either.
It's just a catchy song tbh.

I agree, the repetition of 'the drums' is quite irritating, but the song is catchy nonetheless.

If anyone's thinking of learning this on the guitar, It's really easy and it sounds great.

Good song htough, the rythm is super easy to pick up and it's the smae all the way through.
