Unbelievable
EMF (Epsom Mad Funkers) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about, darlin' listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through and leave you
The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable (what the fuck?)

You burden me with your problems
By telling me more about mine
I'm always so concerned
With the way you say you've always go to stop to think of us
Being one is more than I ever know
But this time, I realize I'm going to shoot through and leave you

The things, you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable (what the fuck?)

Seemingly lastless, don't mean you can ask us
Pushing down the relative, bringing out your higher self
Think of the fine times, pushing down the better few
Instead of bringing out the clues
To what the world and everything you answer to
Brace yourself with the grace of ease
I know this world ain't what it seems (what the fuck? Whoa man!)
It's unbelievable

You burden me with your questions
You'd have me tell no lies
You're always asking what it's all about, darlin' listen to my replies
You say to me I don't talk enough
But when I do I'm a fool
These times I've spent, I've realized
I'm going to shoot through and leave you

The things you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things you say
Is for what I love you more
The things you say
Your purple prose just gives you away
The things, you say
You're unbelievable (what the fuck?)

(What the fuck?)

You're so unbelievable! (what the fuck?)

You're unbelievable

It's unbelievable (what the fuck?)





You're unbelievable

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to EMF's song "Unbelievable" speak about a tumultuous relationship in which one person constantly asks questions and burdens the other with their problems, leading the singer to want to "shoot through and leave." The person's "purple prose," or overly flowery language, gives away their true motives and makes them "unbelievable" to the singer. The chorus repeats this sentiment with the line "You're unbelievable (what the fuck?)" expressing frustration and disbelief.


The lyrics also touch on the idea of personal growth and change, with the singer urging the other person to "think of the fine times" and bring out the clues to "what the world and everything you answer to." The chorus shifts from expressing frustration to a more lighthearted tone, with the line "Is for what I love you more" indicating that despite the difficulties in the relationship, there is still love present.


Overall, the song offers a commentary on the ups and downs of relationships, the importance of communication, and the need for personal growth and change.
