Underworld - Crocodile Lyrics

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to call between my lips
two kangaroo fingers push
through and scratch my back in rhythm

slow foot
slow fast
waiting for a night to wrap around us
i could go in there
get some sweet stuff

all these things
in me (in me)
all these things
in me (in me)

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to hold beneath my skin
two numbers click between her touch
when you pull me down into them
rising and rising
[through the inside of a glass eye painting]
calling me in there
get that sweet stuff

all these things
in me (in me)
all these things
in me (in me)

vocoder stuff [did you walk around the stairs?]

is that you?
is that
is that really you?
to crawl between my lips
two kangaroo fingers push
through and scratch my back in rhythm

slow foot
slow fast
waiting for a night to wrap around us
i could go in there
get some sweet stuff

all these things
in me
all these things
in me

Underworld - Crocodile Review

Interesting creatures are crocodiles. The passing millennia have left them relatively unaltered, only a few tweaks distinguishing them from their dinosaur-era ancestors. On the basis of this aptly-titled single, dance stalwarts Underworld are similarly uninterested in any notions of evolution. In the ’90s they were dance pioneers, crashing headlong into the future, crafting computerised masterpieces that engaged cerebrally whilst revving the blood in your very veins.

However, this is not the ’90s and ‘Crocodile’, the first single from their forthcoming album Oblivion With Bells, is no ‘Rez’, ‘Two Months Off’, or ‘Born Slippy’. It is vacuum-packed dance music; music that is pristine and prissy, afraid to dirty itself with the stuff of life; sacrificing tune for texture, creating an atmospheric absence of soul. The palette of beats and textures is limited, the vocal filtered through a mesh of computerised glitches until it is blanched of humanity. The end result is hopelessly unobtrusive: a sterile, computer-sculpted wasteland on which nothing of real interest can grow. source drownedinsound.com
