About This Track

'Figures' by Bonobo is an electronic track from the album 'Migration' (2017). The lyrics circle a pleading conditional, returning to the refrain “don’t need me no more”, as the speaker suggests a relationship could be happier without them and questions why they still feel required. It is a hypnotic, looping sentiment, expressed through repeated lines that sharpen the emotional logic of dependency.

"Figures" is a track by Bonobo, from the album Migration, released 13th January 2017. The track is 6:08 long. It's filed under Electronic. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Figures

Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
You'd be happy some, why do you feel? Don't need me no more
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
You'd be happy some, off

Believe it, be off, don't need me no more, why do you feel?
Don't need me no more
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no more
You'd be happy some, off

You'd be happy some, off, don't need me more, believe it
Why do you feel you'd be happy some?
Why do you feel?
Believe it, believe it, believe it, be off
Don't need me no, believe it
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no, you'd be happy some

Why do you feel? Don't need me no, you'd be happy some
Why do you feel? You say I tie, don't need me no
Oh, if it hadn't been for, don't need me no, had enough
Oh, if it hadn't been for, you say, don't need me no

Believe it, be off, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off
Don't need me no, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off
Don't need me no, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off
Don't need me no, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off

Don't need me no, believe it, be off
You say I tie, believe it, be off
You say, don't, believe it, be off, believe it, be off
You say, don't need me no
