Bambie Thug

Cork-born alt disruptor Bambie Thug is smashing through gender and socio-political stereotypes to create an era-defining sound that borders on elements of pop, rock, electronic and more.

Self-coining the term ‘Ouija-pop’ to describe their sound, Bambie Thug has made serious waves with a series of genre-defying singles and a critically acclaimed EP CATHEXIS.

Doomsday Blue is about the feeling of having your potential overlooked, and is an ode to the queer community.

No stranger to the big stage, Bambie has torn up festival stages across the world including Download Festival, The Great Escape and Trans Musicales, to much critical acclaim.

Lyrics of Doomsday Blue

Avada Kadavra
I speak to destroy
The feelings I have I cannot avoid
Through twisted tongues
A hex deployed on you

That all the pretties in your bed
Escape your hands and make you sad
And all the things you wish you had you lose

I, I, I know you’re living a lie
I, I, I see the scars in your eyes
I, I, I know you’re living a lie

I, I, I guess you’d rather have a star than the moon
I guess I always overestimate you
Hoodoo all the things that you do
I’m down down in my Doomsday blue

(I, I, I know you’re living a lie)
(I, I, I know you’re living a lie)

Avada Kadavra
The thoughts in my head
The places I touch when lying in bed
The visions of you the words that you said
Undo

My heartbeat buried in the ground
And to the strings I bind you’re bound
So when you sleep you’ll hear my sound
(cuckoo)

I, I, I know you’re living a lie
I, I, I see the scars in your eyes
I, I, I know you’re living a lie

I, I, I guess you’d rather have a star than the moon
I guess I always overestimate you
Hoodoo all the things that you do
I’m down down in my Doomsday blue

I guess you’d rather have a star than the moon
I guess I always overestimate you
Hoodoo all the things that you do
I’m down down in my Doomsday blue

For your romance
I’d beg steal and borrow
It’s draining me hollow
You-ooooh

You could slow dance me
Out of my sorrow
But your favourite colour
Compared to the others is doom

Doomsday blue

Blue
Blue
Blue
Blue
Blue
Blue

Avada Kadavra
I speak to destroy!
