In Your Face

from Vatic Vintage (LP) by Leo Courbot

/

about

Sly-Stone-style slow funk on the question of what is real and what is not. The lyrics were inspired by the Matrix movies, magical realist literature, the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas, and the paintings of Remedios Varo.

lyrics

In Your Face

Verse 1
You keep talking about the real
Thing and the magic touch,
But when start dealing with the real
Magic of the magical real,
You say I’m a little too much,
You say I’m a little too much.

Verse 2
You say that I can fuss over such and such
(Such and such),
Not knowing if I can ever touch
The world outside my mind for real,
The world outside my mind for real, woo!

Verse 3:
But there’s something about your ever moving face
That tells me otherwise (otherwise):
It says it’s not the case
And I can believe my eyes.
Because it’s all in your face,
Yeah it’s all in your face.

Chorus:
It’s all in your face,
It’s all in your face.

Spoken word:
Unpredictable yet deterministic,
There’s something in your face that’s kind of mystic.
It’s always expressing itself, so that it always escapes my grasp
And it keeps me desiring you because it gives me a sense of infinity,
A sense of infinite Otherness.
And it lets me know that… there’s a world out there.
Yeah, you’re the reason why I know there’s a world out there.
Because it’s all in your face.

Chorus.
