Scott Helman - Dostoevsky Lyrics
Every time I get you to myself
You're goin' on about somebody else
Please don't keep comparin' me to him
'Cause that's some tough competition
He changed your life
Showed you the light
He opened your eyes
And every night
I roll over and sigh
Oh well, that's nice
Too bad he's not here tonight
Dostoevsky
Oh, Dostoevsky
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
I even changed the bedsheets
I'd love you if you'd let me
But all damn night
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
All these Russian writers I don't even know
Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me
Why won't she let you go?
Every time I look into your eyes
I see a cold Siberian sky
I'm workin' really hard to get to know ya
Yeah he's alright but how's he gonna hold ya
That's right
He changed your life
Showed you the light
He opened your eyes
And every night
I roll over and sigh
Oh well, that's nice
Too bad he's not alive
Dostoevsky
Oh, Dostoevsky
My heart's on fire
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
I even changed the bedsheets
I'd love you if you'd let me
But all damn night
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
All these Russian writers I don't even know
Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me
Why won't she let you go?
All these literary giants, she puts me right beside 'em
And I'm tryna decide if they're laughin' or they're cryin'
Dostoevsky
Oh, Dostoevsky
My heart's on fire
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
I even changed the bedsheets
I'd love you if you'd let me
But all damn night
She just wanna talk about Dostoevsky
All these Russian writers I don't even know
Oh, Dostoevsky, tell me
Why won't she let you go?

What’s this song about and what’s Dostoevsky?? Someone plz tell me
It's about a boyfriend who's jealous of his girlfriend's obsession with a Russian writer called fyodor dostoevsky
Not to be mistaken from the anime character
I love this song! It's about how a boyfriend is jealous of his girlfriend's obsession with Russian philosopher Dostoevsky. The song is catchy and uptempo and the lyrics are so witty! Pop perfection!
Love this song
Looking up this song so many times has taught me how to spell Dostoevsky
YASSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy shit when I realized what this song was actually about I was laughing my ass off. You're a genius Scott. Also what an absolutely lovely introduction. Love those ambient vibes. Reminds me of Violet Hill
I still don’t get it
Love the song tho
I went to see him in April and I was in front row and he held my hand and I love when he says “to bad he’s not alive”
Ugghh yess especially love the sound of this one!!
Saw him on his first solo tour of Europe in Amsterdam! Come back soon...
