Closer by Tegan and Sara is featured in Feud, the sixteenth episode of Season Four. It is sung by the New Directions, with Jake and Ryder singing lead. 

The song begins after Brody and Finn's fight. Jake and Ryder lead the song as the New Directions are in the auditorium with Blaine and Marley playing the keyboards. With all feuds resolved, the New Directions sing their hearts out and dance with passion in a fun and wacky way. Will comes in and watches them as they run through the auditorium seats, singing together. 

Lyrics[]

Ryder:
All I want to get is
A little bit closer
All I want to know is
Can you come a little closer?

Jake and Ryder:
Here comes the breath before we get
A little bit closer
Here comes the rush before we touch
Come a little closer

Ryder:
The doors are open, the wind is really blowing

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
The night sky is changing overhead
It's not just all physical
I'm the type who won't get oh so critical
So let's make things physical
I won't treat you like you're oh so typical

New Directions:
Oh-oh, oh oh, oh-oh, oh oh

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
I won't treat you like you're oh so typical

Jake:
All you think of lately
Is getting underneath me
All I dream of lately
Is how to get you underneath me

Jake and Ryder:
Here comes the heat before we meet
A little bit closer
Here comes the spark before the dark
Come a little closer

Jake with New Directions:
The lights are off and the sun is finally setting

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
The night sky is changing overhead

It's not just all physical
I'm the type who won't get oh so critical
So let's make things physical
I won't treat you like you're oh so typical

I want you close, I want you (New Directions: Oooh, ooh)
I won't treat you like you're typical
I want you close, I want you (New Directions: Oooh, ooh)
I won't treat you like you're typical

New Directions:
Uh, uh-uh
Uh, uh-uh
Uh, uh-uh
Uh, uh-uh

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
Here come the dreams of you and me
Here come the dreams
Here come the dreams of you and me (New Directions: Uh, uh-uh)
Here come the dreams

It's not just all physical
I'm the type who won't get oh so critical
So let's make things physical
I won't treat you like you're oh so typical

I want you close, I want you
I won't treat you like you're typical
I want you close, I want you
I won't treat you like you're typical

New Directions:
Oh-oh, oh oh, oh-oh, oh oh, oh-oh, oh oh

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
I won't treat you like you're typical

New Directions:
Oh-oh, oh oh, oh-oh, oh oh, oh-oh, oh oh

Jake and Ryder with New Directions:
I won't treat you like you're typical
All I want to get is
A little bit closer
All I want to know is
Can you come a little closer?

Trivia[]

  • It was also sung by Brody earlier in the episode, while he was singing in the shower, as Santana rifled through his clothes and took his pager. This version was unreleased though. 
  • The last Jake and Ryder duet on the show. Also, Jake's last duet overall.

Mistakes[]

  • Unique can be seen doing a twirl, but in the next shot, she is shown sitting down.
  • Marley can be seen hugging Jake and Kitty, but in the next shot her arms are down like she never had hugged them.
  • When Marley and Blaine are playing the pianos and singing, she puts her head on Jake's shoulder and is seen singing "Tickle" instead of "Typical."
