Dua Lipa - Illusion lyrics

Your rating:

About this lyric:

Dua Lipa bursts onto the scene with "Illusion," the lead single from her highly anticipated album "Radical Optimism." The infectious melody instantly hooks you in, promising a dance floor anthem. Production flourishes, like the pulsating beat and a shimmering soundscape reminiscent of Tame Impala, elevate the track.

However, critical reception is divided. While some praise the undeniable catchiness of the chorus, others find the song formulaic. The playful wit and theatrical edge that characterized Lipa's previous hits seem absent in "Illusion," with some reviewers critiquing the generic lyrics.

Ultimately, "Illusion" is a pleasant pop song with undeniable mainstream appeal. Whether it lives up to the innovation Lipa has delivered in the past depends on your expectations. If you're looking for a guaranteed dance floor filler, "Illusion" might just be your new obsession. If you crave Lipa pushing boundaries, this song might play it a bit safe.

I been known to miss a red flag
I been known to put my lover on a pedestal
In the end those things just don't last
And it's time I take my rose-coloured glasses off
I already know your type tellin' me the things I like 
Tryin' make me yours for life takin' me for a ride 
I already know your type think you can play your cards right 
Don't you know I could do this dance all night
Ooh what you doin'
Don't know who you think that you're confusing
I be like Ooh it's amusing
You think I'm gonna fall for an illusion
Dance all night dance all night
Dance all night dance all night
I be like Ooh
Dance all night dance all night
Dance all night dance dance
Was a time when that shit might have worked
Was a time when I just threw a match and let it burn
Now I'm grown I know what I deserve
I still like dancing with the lessons I already learned I already know your type tellin' me the things I like 
Tryin' make me yours for life taking me for a ride 
I already know your type think you can play your cards right 
Don't you know I could do this dance all night
Ooh what you doin'
Don't know who you think that you're confusing
I be like Ooh it's amusing
You think I'm gonna fall for an illusion
Dance all night dance all night
Dance all night dance all night
I be like Ooh
Dance all night dance all night
Dance all night dance dance
Illusion I really like the way you're moving
Yeah I just wanna dance with the illusion
Yeah I just wanna dance with
Yeah I just wanna dance with
I could dance all night
Ooh what you doin'
Don't know who you think that you're confusing
I be like Ooh it's amusing
You think I'm gonna fall for an illussion
Ooh-ooh what you doing
Don't know who you think that you're confusing
I be like Ooh it's amusing
You think I'm gonna fall for an illusion
