King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - God Is In The Rhythm Lyrics

1:02 This is the point were I think the auxiliary cable has come loose from my phone in the car

This is my favorite King Gizzard single

Its not a single

speed 2x is bathsalts

God is in this song

This is great song for early fall. Just picture driving along a country road with the leaves changing colors.

Help I cant stop listening on repeat

The music is great, and I would love to love them, but... can someone who was at their concert tell me how they all manage to listen to them for an hour without falling asleep? >.> The quiet, whiny, breathy vocals make every song sound exactly the same (with maybe 5 exceptions, if we take all their albums). It would be better if they kept it instrumental. (Which is a shame, because Stu clearly can sing, when he wants to. It's just that most of the time, he sounds like he's half-comatose and not giving a single fuck).

Lol dude what are you smoking. I went last Monday in Atlanta and had my face shredded off.

Stu doesn't really whine either, I'm not sure why you think that.

Clearly you’ve never seen video of them live or even payed much attention to their music, because believe me, it’s IMPOSSIBLE to fall asleep at a King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard show lol

help me

Falling in drugs... dO.Ob

why is this one not on spotify? :/

So basically Giz now has their own record label, Flightless records, and the old record label still owns this album and Eyes Like the Sky so Giz can't put them up. Despite this the album was recently listed on spotify so there could be a deal going on in the background to buy it back. I'm crossing my fingers!

I want this played at my wedding

What is the meaning of the song? What try to explain or say?

quarters is a masterpiece as a whole for sure, but everything about this song is fucking lovely, man. top notch producing. great work.

A song to slow dance to. With your lover, or just yourself and the universe as your partner

Anyone know the lyrics meaning? I didn’t really think giz was religious but I’m pretty sure I’m misunderstanding the lyrics

You don't need religion to know what god is or feel god. God is the universe and everything in it. It's the interconnectedness between everything and the beauty that flows through it all

trippy, thanks man

Yeah I think it’s referring to “God” more as a a spiritual interconnectedness with Earth and between each other, rather than a religious God/literal higher power

sounds a little bit like Imagine by John Lennon

certainly, god is in the rhythm

Im not depressed anymore

oute gw gamw

4:51 makes me want to cry happy tears

When they’re rolling the credits at the end of the story of my life, this is the song that is playing. It’s so beautiful, it’s just killing me!

Thank Jimi Hendrix for influencing these cats if you love these melodies.

More like some dudes in the 50's. But also Jimi on their other work lol

come to chile conxetuakre

It sounds like a mish mash of styles.. it loses me right away. Sorry this music is a forgery of past great music

jim doe lighten up

Who says a mish mash of styles makes something automatically bad? Also, music as a process is all about being influenced by past greats, inspiration isn’t equivalent to “forgery”

The realization of humanity's insignificance is a realization that everyone should have.

We're just weirdly adapted animals who look for self-worth and understanding in the darkness of any corner we can explore.

You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else.

That was deep Man.. . Is that a Phil Collins song?

r/deepthoughtswhilehigh

Damn nigga that shit was depressing as fuck
Go on head kill ya self already G... & take with you all these mofo insignificant sorries on the planet.
We are special droplets of the universe , embodied with all of creation within our spectrum, we are godlets

we smoke crack, who cares

The worlds not a ball spinning thru space, tho...

I just had to learn the guitar solo 2-minutes in and now I can't stop playing along!

0.75 speed for the super chill

Jesus Christ it’s so chill, drugged-out factor immediately doubles

My love has a soundtrack

Kinda reminiscent of I'm So Tired by The Beatles

This Single has now been picked up through college radio in San Antonio, South Texas. It was posted on Facebook for the locals. I’m glad to hear something from all away in Australia!

Nice! Which college? I'm from around San Antonio.

Bellingham, WA too. College radio - KUGS 89.3 - Western Washington University

found another gizzverse connection in my deep dive. the lyrics and quadrant on the cover for this song (top left) relate to the Crumbling Castle lyric "On this very day in 100 years the earth will be relative to the sun and the moon and a new world will be created"

This is like a South African Zulu music genre called Maskandi especially the high notes and squeaky voices and guitar note progressions but like slowed down and distorted

Its a good song for high sex I love that band

That’d make some colorful babies! Beautiful little broken rubbers with tails....sorry I had to

those are the sounds you hear when you fly to heaven after death

...I hope you are right with that statement, young man💫

Gonna put this song and fuck my fat wife

2:04 for the best bass solo in the world

JonS guitar*

low-tuned guitar actually. whoever thought of it made a great choice

I mean, it's GOOOD, but I wouldn't say best. Hamburger Train by Primus.

What is the meaning of the song?

ˇjuan burciagaˇ I mean "open to interpretation" but I think its about how everything is connected through rhythm. The earth lets of magnetic pulse every 11,000 years, rotates around the sun, rotates on an axis, seasons change, etc. Life if just particles connecting in rhythm to form more particles with more compex properties. This happens over and over again until eventually you get particles known as humans with extremely complex attributes. Perhaps eventually we will be so complex that the rythmn will be God

Eli Peterman That's kinda what I figured, the natural scheme of life in our reality so to speak. Thanks

If you have to ask a question like that, you’d never understand the answer. The answer lies somewhere within the meaning of life, love, death, and everything in between. Figure it out. But understand, your not alone, friend. We’re all in this shit together...big sigh

the musical embodiment of true love

Might be the most beautiful song ive ever heard

a bit trippy but I like it

Just a bit... I want to do acid with YOU! It never got to weird for ME!

its Johnny and Santo - Sleep walk 1959

Dont see it.

@Nathaniel Mathias Major sarcasm?

@World's Forgotten Boy No, I mean there's more of an influence to it, guys talking like they did it note for note and exactly like Sleep walk, not to mention there's more than one that reminds me of this band or that song in this song, this song isn't that simple to lump it into one particular thing. Even if they did specifically get influence from Sleep Walk, they still made it into something unique and well lovely and in their own way.

Makes me wanna slow dance until the end of time

What's most fascinating about this song is that it's the same chord progression for the entire ten minutes, but it never gets boring in the slightest. These guys really are masterful musicians.

That's behind most of their songs (albums even). I usually dislike chill repeating stuff, but they do it almost perfectly

This is amazing. Just discovered these guys like a week ago. I hope they stay this good for a long time.

Whatcha think now?

Michael, please come back.

Micheal, please respond us.

:) oh my , I am in love xxx this is seriously addictive ...x coolness overload X

It is beautiful indeed! I feel like I’m sharing a cosmic experience with everyone. A very rare emotion for this introvert. I’m feeling love from somewhere. 💫🍻

I love this song more than i love weed

Woah now...

I dunno if that’s even possible, but I gotta say, I agree with that statement somehow.

@Steve Ebbens hippies

Acid rock s2

Earth by the moon
Darker days come soon
Owl sings a tune
Surely she knows too

Bird is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Earth by the sun
Brighter days to run
Rain knows the sun
Knows it's not time to come

Rain is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Seasons move
Everybody knows it's true
Springs brings a dew
Hibernates winters tune

Summer's waiting
Expectating (expectating)
God is in the seasons

Trees know it too
The perfect time to bloom
The leaf asks the sun
Knows his time has come

Leaf is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Wind blows a song
From the desert to the pond
Frog waves the wand
And the wind blows on beyond

Frog is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Earth by the stars
We have all come from Mars
We all know it too
We belong to the soup

We are waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm
We are waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Earth by the moon
Darker days come soon
Owl sings a tune
Surely she knows too

Bird is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Earth by the sun
Brighter days to run
Rain knows the sun
Knows it's not time to come

Rain is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Seasons move
Everybody knows it's true
Springs brings a dew
Hibernates winters tune

Summer's waiting
Expectating (expectating)
God is in the seasons

Trees know it too
The perfect time to bloom
The leaf asks the sun
Knows his time has come

Leaf is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Wind blows a song
From the desert to the pond
Frog waves the wand
And the wind blows on beyond

Frog is waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

Earth by the stars
We have all come from Mars
We all know it too
We belong to the soup

We are waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm
We are waiting
Expectating
God is in the rhythm

beautiful lyrics man

The soup!

@Cole Miller goat head soup- Rolling Stones

One of the most underated gizz songs.

DUFMAN123 jizz

1st King Gizzard song I’ve ever heard. And I’m digging on it! It’s both both beautiful and very fucked up! I feel as emotionally unstable as a teenager now.

@Steve Ebbens Same here it's been only 2 months but I still keep coming back to this track 😁

i need the bass tabs of this song

ayumu random

And get together with me to jam it out

I'd recommend checking out the subreddit. There is a link to a spreadsheet with all available tabs there.

1.25x speed and you get d'yer maker by led zeppelin :D

@Psychedelic Pork Fritters Someone doesn't like D'yer Maker lol

WTF ??? is magic???? :v

Favourite song from King Giz. Lovely lyrics and melody.

wow youre really pretty

wow you're really pretty

Lol smartasses

Excuse me, will you slow dance with me to this lovely tune? You have great taste in music. wink wink

this track has always reminded me of a 50s diner rock n roll track on acid

And it would suck if that happened, I look up to these guys in a artistically way because I'm into music myself. Dont got a band but I sing, write, play piano, harmonica from time to time.

It just annoys me kind of when people point it out like it's a ripoff when it's always just slight resemblances. Plus music has gone on so long its about damn near impossible to improvise something that hasn't been done before.

@Jonathan Iván Lucero little late there man lol. I'm chill now Haha. Just because I use cuss words in my sentences doesnt me I'm spazzing out or anything, I cuss every moment honestly.

@Jonathan Iván Lucero yeah and feel you, comparisons in every song out there it seems.

Markusahedron you’re right I’m actually here after watching the sleep walk video

I always lose my shit at 4:02

lol I heard that shit too

I can hear something being said in the background but I cant quite make it out

Incredible song on an incredible album

Thank you 🙏🏼

I think is sounds like the chorus on hapiness is warm gun by the B

I think the same.

Hyde Ah, my favorite band, The B

Hyde omg yeah it does

BEST SONG I'VE HEARD IN A WHILE

Brilliant

x1.25 speed = Heaven

Wake and Listen huh, that's an interesting way of listening to it. It's cool for much different reasons

Sounds like a mac demarco song

Only one here who hears 'Charlie Sheen knows too' at 0:17 ?

Amazing song/ LP!

theArifex what are the actual lyrics?

Earth by the moon
Darker days come soon
Owl sings a tune
Surely she knows too

same believe it or not

This has been driving me insane for weeks now

Fuk I actually though that was what he was sayin, you opened my eyes

j'aime beaucoup ! :)

Sounds like D'yer Maker by Led Zeppelin lol slowed down about 25%

@Nathaniel Mathias Major Not by a long shot bud lol

@Jack Redfield great voodoo there mate :)))

Actually though

i really don t mind , 10 mns that is allright

They actually got this tune from John Lennon's "God" have a listen

Beautiful very santos and Johnny :)

This song is seriously better than sex

The song is definitely perfect combined with sex.

Maybe I'm just having sex wrong but I concur

holy shit

exactly

on point
