about

»How Many« is typically OY: a happy track with conscious messages. The duo won’t be squeezed into any boxes, they rather pile them up and stand on top to be heard and seen. The fourth single of their new album injects catchy melodic hooks into a hip-hop driven track. It’s the perfect stage for lyrics that deal with fake news, ridiculous politicians, and more hot topics of our days.

lyrics

How many reasons to fly?
How many, many?
How many reasons to fly?

Ahhh ahhh ahhh
How many reasons to fly?
Ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhhh

How many lies can a man walk down?
How many diamonds get him crowned?
How many boobs can a man grope on?
How many «Me Too's» on the run?
How many chats and TED talks?
How many likes and robots?
How many billions tax-free?
How many have-nots?
How many low income jobs?
How many private space plots?
How many lies can a crowd walk down?
How many monsters will we crown?

Hey eh
How many reasons to fly?
How many, many?
How many reasons to fly?

Ahhh ahhh ahhh
How many reasons to fly?
Ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhhh
How many reasons to fly?
How many reasons to fly?

Hey eh, hey eh eh
Well, not so long ago we humans looked up at the sky
And thought how nice it would be to fly like birds
And now, a historic blink of an eye later
We look up at this very sky and there’s nothing left
But planes, and cranes, and polluted clouds
So I think it’s fair to say we pretty much - fucked up

Hey eh, hey eh eh
How many reasons to fly?
How many many?
How many reasons to fly?
How many many?
How many reasons to fly?
How many many?

How many - How many reasons to fly?
How many - How many reasons to die?
How many - How many reasons to sigh?
How many - How many many many?
How many - How many reasons to fly?
How many - How many reasons to die?
How many - How many reasons to sigh?
How many - How many many many?

And now, a historic blink of an eye later
We look up at this very sky and there’s nothing left
But planes, and cranes, and polluted clouds
So I think it’s fair to say we pretty much - fucked up
