Supreme
Alban Bartoli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the lonely hearts in London
Caught a plane and flew away
And all the best women are married
All the handsome men are gay
You feel deprived
Yeah are you questioning your size?
Is there a tumour in your humour,
Do you leave dents where you sit,
Are you getting on a bit?
Will you survive
You must survive
When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme
Oh what are you really looking for?
Another partner in your life to
abuse and to adore?
Is it lovey dovey stuff,
Do you need a bit of rough?
Get on your knees
Yeah turn down the love songs that you hear
'Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
That echoes in your ear
Saying love will stop the pain
Saying love will kill the fear
Do you believe
You must believe
When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme
I spy with my little eye
Something beginning with (ah)
Got my back up
And now she's screaming
So I've got to turn the track up
Sit back and watch the royalties stack up
I know this girl she likes to switch teams
And I'm a fiend but I'm living for a love supreme
When there's no love in town
This new century keeps bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme
Come and live a love supreme
Don't let it get you down
Everybody lives for love
Come and live a love supreme
Don't let it get you down
Everybody lives for love
Alban Bartoli's song "Supreme" is a song about the difficulties of finding love in the modern world. The lyrics describe a sense of loneliness and frustration that many people experience when looking for love. The first verse sets the stage with the image of "lonely hearts" in London catching a plane and flying away, leaving the singer feeling even more alone. The chorus repeats the phrase "When there's no love in town" and emphasizes the sense of disappointment and disillusionment that comes with searching for love in the 21st century.
The second verse addresses the idea of what people are really looking for in a partner, and whether they are seeking love or just someone to "abuse and adore." The lyrics suggest that there is a lot of confusion and mixed messages around the idea of love, and many people are unsure what they really want.
The final verse introduces a new character who is causing some drama, but the singer is able to turn up the music and "live for a love supreme." The song ends with a message of hope, encouraging listeners not to let the difficulties of finding love get them down, and reminding them that "everybody lives for love."

Oh it seemed forever stopped today
The feeling that time has stopped is overwhelming
All the lonely hearts in London
People who have not found love in London
Caught a plane and flew away
They left the city to find love elsewhere
And all the best women are married
The most desirable women are already taken
All the handsome men are gay
The attractive men are not interested in women
You feel deprived
Feeling like you are missing out on something
Yeah are you questioning your size?
Feeling insecure about oneself
Is there a tumour in your humour,
Is there something wrong with your sense of humor?
Are there bags under your eyes?
Is there a physical indication of stress or lack of rest?
Do you leave dents where you sit,
Does your weight create marks on the surface seating?
Are you getting on a bit?
Getting older and feeling like time is running out
Will you survive
Will you be able to overcome these challenges?
You must survive
You have to overcome these challenges.
When there's no love in town
When it feels like it's impossible to find love
This new century keeps bringing you down
The challenges and disappointments of modern life
All the places you have been
The different locations you have searched for love
Trying to find a love supreme
Searching for the perfect, ideal form of love
A love supreme
The perfect, ideal form of love
Oh what are you really looking for?
What is it that you truly desire?
Another partner in your life to abuse and to adore?
Do you want someone to mistreat and admire?
Is it lovey dovey stuff,
Do you just want a romantic, lovey-dovey relationship?
Do you need a bit of rough?
Do you desire a more passionate, intense relationship?
Get on your knees
Be humble and willing to work for love
Yeah turn down the love songs that you hear
Don't romanticize love too much
'Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
The message of love is all around us
That echoes in your ear
That resonates with you emotionally
Saying love will stop the pain
Love has the power to heal emotional pain
Saying love will kill the fear
Love can help us overcome our fears
Do you believe
Do you have faith?
You must believe
It's important to have faith in love
I spy with my little eye
I notice something
Something beginning with (ah)
Something that starts with the sound 'ah'
Got my back up
I feel defensive
And now she's screaming
She's upset and yelling
So I've got to turn the track up
I turn up the volume of the music
Sit back and watch the royalties stack up
I earn money from my music
I know this girl she likes to switch teams
I know a girl who is attracted to both genders
And I'm a fiend but I'm living for a love supreme
I am obsessed with finding the ideal form of love
Come and live a love supreme
Experience the perfect, ideal form of love
Don't let it get you down
Don't be discouraged by the challenges of finding love
Everybody lives for love
Love is what drives and motivates us all

OMG I found the original is as a background song of a tribute video of a F1 French driver. What a coincidence. Love this.
