Wander into the disorienting glow of “See You On Monday (You’re Lost),” a shimmering gem from Tame Impala’s fifth studio album Deadbeat, set to drop October 17, 2025, via Columbia Records—five years after The Slow Rush redefined psych-pop’s pulse.
Kevin Parker, the Perth visionary who’s spun sonic gold since Innerspeaker’s 2010 haze, crafts a track that’s equal parts introspective drift and dancefloor catharsis, produced solo in his Fremantle studio. With woozy synths and a driving four-on-the-floor beat, it channels the euphoric melancholy of Currents, laced with bush doof energy from his Justice collabs like “Neverender.” It’s Tame Impala at their most hypnotic, reflecting Parker’s own musings on feeling untethered in a post-tour, post-pandemic world.
Nestled in Deadbeat’s 12-track tapestry of nostalgic dislocation, this song echoes the alienated shimmer of “Not My World” and the bittersweet strut of “Loser” (with Joe Keery’s Djo flair), weaving a thread of searching souls through the album’s rave-ready heart. As Deadbeat fuels hype with Parker’s DJ slots on Justice’s Aussie tour, this track begs decoding for its layered delays and falsetto pleas.
Dive into the See You On Monday (You’re Lost) lyrics below and lose yourself in Parker’s cosmic drift. Don’t miss other Deadbeat tracks like “Not My World” for more of his psychedelic reinvention.

Lyrics of See You On Monday (You’re Lost) by Tame Impala
[Verse]
And It Happens At Every Turn I’m At
Someone’s Telling Me, “Please, Don’t Call Me That”
And It Happens At Every Turn I’m At
Something’s Beckoning Me And I Turn Back (I Turn Back)
Yes, I Do Turn Back
And It Happens At Every Turn I’m At
Am I In Love Again And Just Like That?
[Refrain]
She Said, “I’m The One You Want And You Can Turn Me On”
“But Life Ain’t Too Much Fun When There’s No Telling Where You’re Heading”
She Said, “I’m The One You Want And You Can Turn Me On” (Turn Me On)
“But Life Ain’t Too Much Fun When There’s No Telling Where You’ll End Up”
