The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song... (With All Your Power)

If you could blow up the world
With the flick of a switch
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
If you could make everybody poor
Just so you could be rich
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)

If you could watch everybody work
While you just lay on your back
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
If you could take all the love
Without giving any back
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)

And so we cannot know ourselves
Or what we'd really do

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

(No no no no, no no no no)

If you could make your own money
And then give it to everybody
Would you do it?
(No no no no, no no no no)
If you knew all the answers
And could give to the masses
Would you do it?
(No no no no, no no no no)

Are you crazy?
It's a very dangerous thing to do
Exactly what you want
Because you cannot know yourself,
Or what you'd really do

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you
Do do do do, do do do do [x6]
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah) [x26]

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?

(I quit, you, you... I didn't make it all the way through that.)


Free Radicals (A Hallucination of the Christmas Skeleton Pleading with a Suicide Bomber)

You think you're so radical
I think you oughta stop
(Say what)
But you're going international
They're gonna call the cops
(No, no, no)
You're turning into
A poor man's Donald Trump
I know those circumstances
Make you wanna jump
Oh no

You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical

And you think you're a radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical

I'll tell you right now
You oughta change your mind
(Yes)
All of your friends are
Standing in line
They're getting tired of
You're at it too fast
Without all your bodyguards
How long would you last
Not long

You think you're radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're fanatical
Fanatical

And you think you're a radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're just fanatical
Fanatical

And you think you're a radical
But you're not so radical
In fact, you're just fanatical
Fanatical


The Sound of Failure/It's Dark... Is it Always This Dark??

She's starting to live her life
From the inside out
The sound of failure calls her name
She's decided to hear it out

So go tell Britney and go tell Gwen
She's not tryin' to go against all them
'Cause she's too scared and she can't pretend
To understand where it begins or ends
Or what it means to be dead
It's just a sound going through your head
Let them go on

Standing there in the graveyard
While the moon sprays its fireworks in your hair
the sound of failure calls her name
She's decided to hear it out

So go tell Britney and go tell Gwen
She's not tryin' to go against all them
'Cause she's too scared and she can't pretend
To understand where it begins or ends
Or what it means to be dead
It's just a sound going through your head
Let them go on
Where it begins or ends
Or what it's like to be dead
It's just a sound going through your head
Let it go on


My Cosmic Autumn Rebellion (The Inner Life as Blazing Shield of Defiance and Optimism as Celestial Spear of Action)

They tell us "Autumn's a comin' and soon everything around us will die
Only a fool believes that he is different from the birds in the sky
All those birds go chasin' some better sunny days
You can't hear them singing 'cause they've all gone away"

But this one bird didn't leave you
It stayed through the wintertime
You can't hear it sing but you can hear it as it flies
So don't you believe them?
They'll destroy you with their lies
They only see the obvious
They see the sun go down but they don't see it rise

This one bird didn't leave you
You can hear it as it flies
It's not very loud but you can hear it if you try
So don't you believe them?
Yes it's true someday everything dies
We won't let that defeat us
We can't hear them singing
But we can hear it as it flies
Lyrics > The Flaming Lips Lyrics


Vein of Stars

Who knows
maybe there isn't a vein of stars callin' out my name
they'll glow from above our heads
nothin' there to see you down on your knees
25, 26, 27
back from the future maybe there aint no heaven
there's just you and me
maybe that's all whose left
& if there aint no heaven
maybe there aint no hell

who knows
maybe there isn't a vein of stars callin' out my name
who knows
maybe there isn't a vein of stars callin' out my name
who knows
who knows

who knows
who knows

callin' out my name
who knows
who knows

callin' out my name


The Wizard Turns On... The Giant Silver Flashlight and Puts on His Werewolf Moccasins

[instrumental]


It Overtakes Me/The Stars Are So Big... I Am So Small... Do I Stand a Chance?

It overtakes me, It overtakes me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I
It overtakes me, It Master-Slaves me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I

It overtakes me, It overtakes me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I
It overtakes me, It Wakes and Bakes me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I

You know that it isn't real
You'll disappear in a black hole
You know that it isn't real
Floating out of control.... Oh Wow

It overtakes me, it overtakes me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I
It overtakes me, It Master-Slaves me
It overtakes me... Oh oh oh I

And I'm there, looking up at the sky
And I'm scared, thinkin' 'bout the way that I
Don't understand anything at all...
And how it overtakes me... and I am just so small...
Do I stand a chance?


Mr Ambulance Driver

Waiting... for the ambulance to come
Hoping that it doesn't come... to late
Hearing the sirens in the distance
Hold on help... Is on the way
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm right here beside her
Tho I'll live some how I've found
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm not a real survivor
Wishing that i was the one that...wasn't gonna be here anymore
The one that isn't here anymore
The one that isn't here anymore
Oh...we can't trade places
Our lives our strangely all alone
Mr. Ambulance Driver
Tell Me...for everyone that dies someone new is born
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm right here beside her
And tho I'll live some how I've found
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm not a real survivor
Cause I'm wishing that i was the one that...wasn't gonna be here anymore
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm right here beside her
And tho I'll live some how I've found
Mr. Ambulance Driver
I'm not a real survivor
Cause I'm wishing that i was the one that...wasn't gonna be here anymore
The one that isn't here anymore
The one that isn't here anymore
(Waiting for the ambulance to come, who who whooo)x2
Mr. Ambulance Driver


Haven't Got a Clue

You haven't got a clue
And you don't know what to do
You used your money and your friends
To try and trick me
But you won't trick me

As far as I can tell
You've created your own hell
And now you walk around this place
Expecting pity

Every time you throw a fit
I can't decide
If you're full of it
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
I go doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

I still can't believe
All your plastic surgeries
And now it's everybody's problem
That you're unhappy
Oh, come on!

Every time you state your case
The more I'd like to punch your face
Every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
And every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
I go doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo [x11]


The W.A.N.D. (The Will Always Negates Defeat)

(You've got the power in there)
(Waving your wand in the air)

Time after time those fanatical minds
Try to rule all the world
Telling us all it's them
Who's in charge of it all

I've got a tricked out magic stick
That will make them all fall
We've got the power now
Motherfuckers, it's where it belongs

You've got that right
(You've got the power in there)
You know that it is
(Waving your wand in the air)

They have their weapons
To solve your questions
They don't know what it's for
(They don't know what it's for)
Why can't they see that's not power
That's greed
To just want more and more?

I got a plan and it's here in my hand
A baton made of light
We're the enforcers,
The sorcerer's orphans,
And we know why we fight
(And we know why we fight)

You've got that right
(You've got the power in there)
(Waving your wand in the air)

(You've got the power in there)
(You've got the power in there)
(You've got the power in there)
(Waving your wand in the air)

You've got that right
You know that it is


Pompeii Am Gotterdammerung

Running to the station holding hands
Now the volcano is flowing red
Something there will change us into sand

Now we'll be forever holding hands
Lava and tephra will form our bed
Now the royal flames of Pompeii bless
All our senses...


Goin' On

We hold our breath til the morning comes,
The blast of sun shines through,
But the night is hard and seems impossible,
What else can we do?

Goin' On,
Goin' On,
Listen you'll hear it,
We're getting near it,
It's coming i can feel it,
Cause i know you've gone away,

Listen you'll hear it,
We're getting near it,
I know i really fear it,
But we pretend it another day,

Goin' On
Goin' On
Goin' On
Goin' On

We tell ourselves it all just normal,
Till the worst of it is gone,
Then you give up,
And you give out,
And you just cant take it,
How will we keep Goin' On?

Goin' On
Goin' On
Listen you'll hear it,
We're getting near it,
It's coming i can feel it,
cause i know you've gone away,

Listen you'll hear it,
We're getting near it,
I know i really fear it,
But we pretend it another day,

Goin' On
Goin' On
Goin' On
Goin' On
We're Goin' On
