Mulder and Scully

About Mulder and Scully

"Mulder and Scully" is a song by Catatonia, released as a single from their 1998 album, International Velvet. The song makes direct reference to fictional FBI special agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), the two main characters of the popular sci-fi TV series The X-Files who work on cases linked to the paranormal, called X-Files. In an interview Cerys Matthews, co-writer of the song, explained that while she was not a serious fan of the show, the basic premise of the series matched the concept of what she was trying to express. "Mulder and Scully" was released as the second single from the band's album International Velvet. Originally, it was supposed to be the first single but was delayed due to circumstances beyond the band's control. The song was Catatonia's first single in the United States. "Mulder and Scully" became the group's break-out hit and received a mixed to positive from the music press; many critics felt that, musically, the song was well played, but that the track's pop culture references were out of place. more »

I'd rather be liberated, I find myself captivated
Stop doing what you, keep doing it too 
I'd rather stay bold and lonely, I dream I'm your one and only
Stop doing what you keep doing it too 

Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry
This could be a case for mulder and scully
Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone

I'd rather be jumping ship, I find myself jumping straight in
Stop doing what you keep doing it too 
Forever be dozy and dim, I wake myself thinking of him
Stop doing what you keep doing it too

Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry
This could be a case for mulder and scully
Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone

Here, my bed is made for two and there's nothing I can do
So tell me something I don't know
If my head is full of you is there nothing I can do?
Must we all march in two by two by two?
And as for some happy ending, I'd rather stay single and thin
Stop doing what you keep doing to me

Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry
This could be a case for mulder and scully
Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone here
Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry
This could be a case for mulder and scully
Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone

So what have you got to say about that?
And what does someone do without love?
And what does someone do with love?
And what have you got to say about that?
