Harry
Cable35 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Harry, Harry Von Dutch
Harry, Harry lost touch

Wednesday morning fly a kite
Thursday night turkish delight
Pin-up suit and flowery boots
Big cigar and orange soup
Harry, Harry Von dutch

Do you know how it feels when you reach the end?
Do you know how it feels when you flip the big switch?

I'm lost in a world now
I'm fading away
I'm lost in a world now
I'm losing my face
I'm lost in a world now

Harry, Harry Von Dutch
Harry, Harry lost touch

Have a beer and I'll have two
Take a trip I'll follow through
Found an olive in his bed
Pillow fighting hit his head

Harry, Harry Von dutch

Do you know how it feels when you reach the end?
Do you know how it feels when you flip the big switch?

I'm lost in a world now
I'm fading away
I'm lost in a world now
I'm losing my face
I'm lost in a world now

Hold on, I'm ill, I'm running up a hill
Hold on, I'm ill, I'm running up a hill
Hold on, I'm ill, I'm running up a hill
Hold on, I'm ill, I'm running up a hill

I'm lost in a world now
I'm fading away
I'm lost in a world now
I'm losing my face
I'm lost in a world now

Harry Harry Harry Harry
Harry Harry Harry Harry

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Cable35's song "Harry" appear to be about a person named Harry Von Dutch who has lost touch with reality. The song opens with the repetition of Harry's name, perhaps indicating that he is the central focus of the song. The next two lines suggest a haphazard schedule or lifestyle, with flying a kite on Wednesday mornings and indulging in Turkish delight on Thursday nights. The lyrics then describe a peculiar fashion sense involving a pin-up suit and flowery boots, as well as interesting taste preferences such as smoking a big cigar and consuming orange soup.


The chorus poses questions about what it's like to experience the end or flip a big switch, possibly alluding to Harry's mental state deteriorating. The rest of the lyrics continue to paint a picture of Harry's unconventional behavior, such as pillow fighting with olives in his bed, and the singer feeling lost and fading away in Harry's chaotic world. The final lines continue to repeat Harry's name.


Overall, it seems like "Harry" is a character study into a person who is struggling with their mental health and has become disconnected from the world around them. The lyrics suggest a sense of chaos, unpredictability, and confusion surrounding Harry's existence.
