About This Track

'Mılkman' is a 2015 alternative song by Bully, released on 'Feels Like'. The lyrics adopt the narrator’s comic, self-disparaging fantasy of becoming a milkman, imagining polite visits and porch stops while also admitting a sluggish, aimless drift, as they sit and spin in disarray. One line crystallises the premise, “I could be a milkman”. The overall tone is intimate and uneasy, with the everyday role of delivering milk turning into a way to talk about disconnection and the body running out of step with the mind.

"Milkman" is a track by Bully, from the album Feels Like, released 1st June 2015. The track is 2:05 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 7 articles about Bully.

Lyrics

Milkman

I could be a milkman
What a good milkman I would be, I would be
Droppin' by your porch and all
It's been a while, you're always good to see
But I'm just sittin' here lookin' square
Spinnin' around in my underwear
Lettin' my body run itself down
Just tryna keep up with my head
I got this feelin', makes me wanna run
I got the feelin'
I got this feelin', makes me wanna run
I got the feelin'
I could be a milkman
Or I could get up and I could be what I want to be
That's when I love you, love you, love you baby
It makes you want, wanna lie to me
When I checked out 10 months ago
I never felt that way before
Now [?] got me feelin' nostalgic
Got a craving, gotta have you, gotta get a grip
I got this feelin', makes me wanna run
I got the feelin'
I got this feelin', makes me wanna run
I got the feelin'
I used to be a shark
I used to be a shark
I used to be a shark
I used to be a...
SHARK! SHARK! SHARK!
