MGMT - It's Working Lyrics






Here, you focus
So I can see your faces
The eyes are wrong

How will I know if it's working right?

Light confuses
The tiny isles of bruises
The mangled lines
I see the signs of aging

But if I try to feel at all I am deceived
My mind's affected
It's empty now
As I lay down
I feel alright
My heart is racing

Turn the noise on
I'd like to feed my poison
Assembly lines

Carry a velvet warning
To the yard
It's just like striking matches
The polish lies

But it's working in your blood
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind
And not your heart

No, it's working

It's working in your blood
Which you know is not the same as love
Love is only in your mind and not your heart

    This song yells out 60s to me and I don’t know why but I love it

  37. f.... ....

    How will I know when its working right?

    When my eyeballs feel like they are the size of the Andromeda Galaxy, that's when I know it's working.

  38. H.... I....

    This music video is a artistic representation about how they made "electric feel" "time to pretend and "kids" and how those songs basically became the hit of 2008 and MGMT don't like it Andrew tries to get out but ends out being in the girls cloths (the girl is a famous artist) and the box starts closing around them and they can't get out of there fame the box is basically the song maker

  39. Y.... ....

    2018 eu amo!!

  40. T.... ....

  41. a.... c....

    idk i get what their videos show like i've felt this before

  44. f.... ....

    The kid licks the ice cream then a beautiful shiny ballerina angel appears before him.

  53. T.... H....

    First: Great song. Those young people are doing wild, wild things! (Haha. Not that old, just wanted to express myself like a much older sort).

    Second: this is clearly the result of satanic influence. Haha.

    Third: a "blue streak" of incoherent, baseless accusations fired blindly. IOW - stereotypical YouTube "screaming".

    Fourth: one word that rhymes with "fourth". (And, yes, it must be a english word).

  54. B.... ....

    1:34 always reminds me of the MGS1 codec screen.

  55. I.... L....

    well that escalated real quickly

  56. L.... V....

    True Masterpiece, still Love it ❤

  57. P.... C....

    the video may be trash, but the music is nice

  58. R.... T....

    Here, you focus
    so I can see your faces
    the eyes are wrong

    how will I know if it's working right?

    light confuses
    the tiny isles of bruises
    the mangled lines
    I see the signs of aging

    But if I try to feel at all I am deceived
    my mind's affected
    it's empty now
    as I lay down
    I feel alright
    my heart is racing

    Turn the noise on
    I'd like to feed my poison
    assembly lines

    carry a velvet warning
    to the yard
    it's just like striking matches
    the polish lies

    but it's working in your blood
    which you know is not the same as love
    love is only in your mind
    and not your heart

    no, it's working

    it's working in your blood
    which you know is not the same as love
    love is only in your mind and not your heart

  59. R.... S....
