Somebody Else
The 1975 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So I heard you found somebody else
And at first, I thought it was a lie
I took all my things that make sounds
The rest I can do without

I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone
And then leavin' with somebody else
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else

I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want

And come on, baby (I know)
This ain't the last time that I'll see your face
And come on, baby (I know)
You said you'd find someone to take my place
I just don't believe that you have got it in you
'Cause we are just gonna keep doin' it
And every time I start to believe in anything you're saying
I'm reminded that I should be getting over it

I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone
And then leaving with somebody else
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else

I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body
I don't want your body, I don't want your body, I

Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone
Get someone you love?
Get someone you need?
Fuck that, get money
I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone

I don't want your body
But I hate to think about you with somebody else
(I don't want your body)
Our love has gone cold
You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
(I don't want your body)
I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone
And then leaving with somebody else
(I don't want your body)
No, I don't want your body
But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
(I don't want your body)

Overall Meaning

"Somebody Else" is a song by the British pop rock band The 1975, which was released as a single in 2016. The song details the feelings of jealousy, heartbreak, and longing after finding out that a former lover has moved on to someone else. The singer expresses that they do not want to be with the other person anymore, but they still feel hurt by the thought of them being intimate with someone new. The lyrics highlight the emptiness the singer feels and their inability to move on from their past relationship.


One of the most powerful aspects of the song is the contrast between the upbeat, danceable music and the melancholy lyrics. The cheerful melody creates an ironic juxtaposition with the sad lyrics and serves as a metaphor for the facade of happiness people sometimes put on when trying to mask their pain.


Overall, "Somebody Else" is a raw and honest portrayal of the complex emotions that can arise after a break-up. The lyrics are both vulnerable and relatable, and the catchy melody makes the song both poignant and memorable.


Line by Line Meaning

So I heard you found somebody else
I learned that you found someone else


And at first, I thought it was a lie
I didn't believe it at first


I took all my things that make sounds
I gathered my musical instruments


The rest I can do without
I don't need anything else


I don't want your body
I don't want to be physically intimate with you


But I hate to think about you with somebody else
It upsets me to imagine you with another person


Our love has gone cold
Our relationship has lost its warmth and affection


You're intertwining your soul with somebody else
You are sharing an emotional connection with someone else


I'm looking through you while you're looking through your phone
I observe you, even as you are distracted by your phone


And then leavin' with somebody else
And then leaving my presence with someone else


No, I don't want your body
I don't want to be physically intimate with you


But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
I can't help but picture you being intimate with someone else


And come on, baby (I know)
And come on, my love, I understand


This ain't the last time that I'll see your face
I will see you again


You said you'd find someone to take my place
You promised to replace me


I just don't believe that you have got it in you
I don't think you can actually replace me


'Cause we are just gonna keep doin' it
Because we will keep being together


And every time I start to believe in anything you're saying
And every time I start to trust what you say


I'm reminded that I should be getting over it
I think that I should move on


Get someone you love?
Do you really want to be with someone you love?


Get someone you need?
Do you really want to be with someone you need?


Fuck that, get money
Forget that, focus on financial gain


I can't give you my soul 'cause we're never alone
I can't fully commit to you because we are never truly alone


No, I don't want your body
I don't want to be physically intimate with you


But I'm picturing your body with somebody else
I can't help but picture you being intimate with someone else

@@oscarespindola2428 BIBLE calls us all to be real, sober minded souls, who live holy lives on earth.
BIBLE calls nor expect nobody to be:
- religious of any kind
- monk
- nun
BIBLE expect us to turn our LACK OF KNOWLEDGE into KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH (HOSEA 4:6)
Each human life on earth:
- repent
- BORN AGAIN and GO AND SIN NO MORE
- be baptised in HOLY SPIRIT /THE COMFORTER
- LIVE HOLY
= soul, after earthly death in HEAVEN. Easy logic, asks no degree in anything.

Bible calls us to give out RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT, no to keep our mouth shut and support everything with blind eyes and deaf ears.

See no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil – that old saying, it belongs to masons, am I right again? The vow of silence of theirs.

SOULS, dare to read and study BIBLE (KJV) and search about FREEMASONRY.
