Fake David Bowie Song
Liam Lynch Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I dreamt of a wizard, with a hot guitar
The lovliest magic man, now he's a star
I've got 3D stereophonic laser love
You're on my TV
I've been stuck in space for such a long time
Sorry mum, I'm 5 years late for teatime
Hydroplaning toward infinity
Just some drag queens and me
You dirty little thing!
Eclipse me
In Cryogenic sleep
Oh lord I'm freezing
Venus is lovely this time of year...




I'm making proteins in my body as I speak
Star lover

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Liam Lynch's song "Fake David Bowie Song" depict the dream of a character who envisions a wizard-like figure who has become a star by wielding a "hot guitar". Furthermore, the dreamer expresses that he is experiencing "3D stereophonic laser love", which suggests that he may be fascinated by futuristic technology and sounds. The song also includes a reference to drag queens, who may represent an escape from the traditional gender roles of society. The character reflects on his current state of being lost in space and being several years late for a meeting with his mother. He seems to be in a state of cryogenic sleep, which emphasizes that he may be longing for a new life and a fresh start. The reference to Venus is likely used as a metaphor for beauty, as the character is in search of love and connection.


One interesting fact about this song is that it was released on Liam Lynch's album "Fake Songs", which also includes other satirical tracks such as "United States of Whatever" and "Cuz You Do". Additionally, the song's whimsical and surreal tone is similar to Lynch's other works, such as his puppet-based series "The Sifl and Olly Show". Furthermore, the song's title is a playful reference to David Bowie, who is perhaps one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Another interesting fact is that the song was featured in the popular MTV show "Clone High", which likely helped to increase its popularity among younger audiences. Lastly, the song's use of futuristic language and references to cryogenics may be an homage to science fiction and space exploration.

I've been stuck in space for such a long time
I have been isolated and lonely for a very long time


Sorry mum, I'm 5 years late for teatime
I have been away from home for so long that I have missed important family events


Hydroplaning toward infinity

You are mischievous and flirty, and I am enjoying your playful behavior


Eclipse me
I want you to completely envelop me and take over my thoughts and emotions


In Cryogenic sleep

Oh lord I'm freezing

I'm making proteins in my body as I speak
I am focused on self-improvement and working on my physical health


Star lover
I have a deep fascination and admiration for the cosmos and celestial bodies
