Technicolour Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

we could be more than all this
just like on TV
just like in the films
just like the books i've read
with your eyes up in the sky
and our thoughts in the stars

your life like a technicolour film
in 3-D on a big screen
your life but how can you be sure
you saw it all in black and white

we could be more than all this
I just know that we can
but how could we even try
without electricity
with our eyes up in the sky
and our thoughts in the stars

your life like a technicolour film
in 3-D on a big screen




your life but how can you be sure
you saw it all black and white

Ooh-ooh (ha, ha, ha)
Ooh-ooh (ha, ha, ha)
I wanna be close to my mother
I wanna belong to the world
A mirror that shows technicolour
I'll be a magnificent girl
But everything is frustrating
Everything moves along faster than I can relate to
But I got power, yeah
Midnight is the hour, yeah
Time to take off your cloaks
Techni-technicolour, techni-technicolour
If we stand together, we can do whatever
Techni-technicolour, techni-technicolour
If we care for one another, we can
Ooh-ooh (hey!)
I wanna know that there's a futurะต
That I can move myself towards
And yet, I promisะต you, yes, all you nasty dudes
I don't need certainty to get my pot of gold, no
Everything is frustrating
Everything moves along faster than I can relate to
But we got grace, yeah
We got style and lasers, yeah
Time to take off your cloaks
Techni-technicolour, techni-technicolour
If we stand together, we can do whatever
Techni-technicolour, techni-technicolour
If we care for one another, we can
Shine, shine, shine, shine
Techni-technicolour (technicolour), techni-technicolour (technicolour)
If we stand together, we can do whatever (we can do whatever)
Techni-technicolour, techni-technicolour
If we care for one another, we can shine (hey!)

My Eurovision's Top 3 last three years:

2019: ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia (love you Kate Miller-Heidke, best performance ever ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป), ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ Iceland (in love with Hatari ๐Ÿ˜) and ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น Portugal (such an emotive performance and proud of my lovely neighbours).
2020: ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡น Lithuania, ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine and ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia.
2021: ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡น Lithuania, ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บ Australia and ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine.

Conclusion: I love ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡บAustralia at Eurovision (sadly I've never been to Australia so I really can't say I love the country but I very much think I would) and I love Montaigne. In my humble opinion, Technicolour is so much better than Don't break me, even though I love both! ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆโ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

Kisses, admiration and love from Asturies and Berlin! ๐Ÿ˜˜
