At War With the Mystics


I had to post some lyrics from the Flaming Lips' new album. When you read them, you'll know why.
The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song
If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switch
Would you do it?
If you could make everybody poor just so you could be rich
Would you do it?
If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your back
Would you do it?
If you could take all the love without giving any back
Would you do it?
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?

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
Every time you state your case
The more I want to punch your face
I go BBVVVDDTTT! BBVVVDDTTT!! BBVVVDDTTT!!!
Any guess who the mystics are? Any guess who the chief mystic is?

Thank you Flaming Lips for keeping me sane in a country gone mad.
